Well, did you find any corpses?

I thought you wanted illusions and powder, so you must have gotten confused.
I don't think there are dead bodies lying around the city, and those killed by Laust have probably already been taken away, but...
Adrian found a group of fresh corpses at the place where Ratislav was killed.

-I have a pretty good idea of how to completely control a person, an elf, or anyone, and make them a mindless slave to their master. - he said to Tao. -Apparently, even after Ratislav's death, you still feel him as your master. What are you going to do now, Tao?

- I... I don't know, - the girl said uncertainly. - I've been a slave since I was 14.

I'll do it right now.
After buying a cloak, Agnet went to the coliseum to find out information about "The Serpent," and not only that. She didn't find any "Serpent" among the participants, but she remembered everything else. Then she approached some kind of administrator or something.
- How is the tournament going? Are there strong people fighting here? Or is it mostly a bunch of riffraff?

- This riffraff will tear your head off for such words, - the coliseum employee smirked. - So far, only one fight has taken place, it was quite quick, although they rarely last very long, after all, human life is too valuable. This year, Dagon is expected to win, this Hellgate knight is a real monster. But the abyss demon looks no less terrifying. You probably think this is just a nickname, but in fact, it's not, it's a personal pet of one of the local rich guys... Hey! I'm not supposed to talk about that!

|As I said, information is sold in Fortik, otherwise no one will tell you anything|

While Agnet was running errands, Saeros took out one of the memory stones and tried to figure out how it worked.

And although the device was quite complex, it used the simplest form of reality control magic, and therefore, to activate it, it was only necessary to give it a command by touching it with a finger, that is, to direct a little energy into it. After activation, the stone will record everything that happens around it. Then, a capable sorcerer can use it to project the recorded events.
