Sylvester Archipelago

Mercenaries are there to help.

- That's how it is, - Acteon replied briefly, assessing in his mind what his new companion and, obviously, higher-ranking member of the order had said. He wasn't in the habit of arguing with his superiors, as he believed there was no reason to do so, and he always unconditionally believed that the order's decisions were always well-reasoned, and their actions only led to good. And yet, something in the answer of the sly Heliotrope made the son of the White Serpent think and ask a question that was so unusual for him. - But could it be that these mercenaries are just extras in the grand adventure of Lutiel and his companions, and that their lives and actions play absolutely no role in what happens in this very adventure? They are just fellow travelers of Lutiel and his friends, and it only depends on them how they will die?... Oh, excuse me, I got carried away, I didn't mean to be rude. But I'm wrong, aren't I?
