— As long as there’s air in your lungs and blood in your veins, you can always acquire something. The same applies to your place in the world. — The Tilian sat back on the bed. — You know, it’s not hard to guess that I used to be a pirate. I had a great captain, loyal and cheerful friends, and a life full of adventures. But some time ago, Tilian ships, along with ours, clashed in battle with the Theosian fleet, and all the people I had known throughout my life perished. Then I was concussed, and for some time I couldn’t even fight. I was less agile, my reaction was terrible, but the worst thing was that I was left alone. No one will support you, you have no one to talk to, no one understands your problems. I don’t remember how, but I also ended up in Illinore, and alcohol became my only friend. I didn’t want to live, but I didn’t have the courage to end it all. Fortunately, one wonderful day, an old man picked me up. I resisted for a long time, told him to go away, but he was very persistent, and in the end, I went with him. Later it turned out that he was a true follower of the Yorsian goddess Ormhild. Thanks to him and the new faith, I finally managed to get back on my feet. He became a father to me, and Ormhild became a mother. Thanks to them, I was able to stop existing and return to life. Perhaps that’s why I want to help you somehow, because I know what it’s like, and that in life you can always find a second chance. A third chance. A hundredth chance.
Adilika listened attentively to the Tilian, and with each of his words, she recognized herself more and more. Caught between two fires, Theos and Illinore, the small island simply had no choice as to whom to pledge allegiance. In the end, the latter emerged victorious. But was this the right decision? This question arose clearly before the rogue once again.
-So, that’s how it sometimes happens. And you and I are very similar. — Adilika paused for a moment, then looked intently into the Tilian’s eyes. — What’s your name?
