Nisho and Giyon were lucky to be near each other, in good health, and with all their equipment and other belongings. After climbing out from under the wreckage of the airship, they see a flock of harpies killing passengers one by one a little further away; the pair has the following options: a) Intervene and try to save them. b) Run away. c) Come up with something else.
Carnelian flies.
Giyon assesses the situation - how many harpies are there? Do they have a chance? Are the passengers resisting, and can they help in the fight? Are there any obvious healers or priests among the passengers? Will the harpies be affected by Nisho's allure?
The harpies didn't look like the ones found far to the south:
But rather like this:
There were ten of them in total, of different genders (if that's important - let's say 5 females and 5 males). The passengers were clearly fighting for their lives, but it was obvious that they didn't stand a chance - they weren't fighters.
It's impossible to determine who among the passengers was who right now.
If you help them, there will be a battle in the usual initiative order.
Hmm, if the passengers see 5 XXX Harpies with Nysha, will they experience a strong culture shock, or not? 🤔 Will we get experience for defeating the Harpies?
Added 1 minute ago How many passengers are there? Gender, age, etc.

I just want to point out that lust is not hypnosis. The Harpies of M will most likely not side with Nysha if the ability is used; they will probably find a more direct way to satisfy their desires. Author
Realizing that there is no point in fighting the monsters
Technically, there might be a point in fighting the monsters so that they can go to Margel together later, but it's risky.
Nebok, we have two melee units with minimal healing. I don't think we'll be able to handle these harpies. I don't want to engage in battle, even if Gillon can kill one harpy at a time thanks to his four attacks; there are too many of them, and they will simply overwhelm him, and Nysho is a support unit and won't be able to help him much. We either have to run or come up with something else; engaging in battle is definitely not an option.

She kills after XXX, which is like 5 corpses without a fight.

BUT WHERE?!

Yes, it's not an option; they don't give experience, so...

Realizing that fighting the monsters would be pointless, Nysha heads in the opposite direction.
Guyon hesitates, then quietly follows her. - Are you sure? - he whispers, trying not to attract the harpies' attention, - we don't stand a chance in an open fight, but maybe we should come up with something else? Perhaps the airship's engine is still working; we could start it and scare them away with the noise, or knock the balloon's envelope onto them, or something like that?
Here's your "help from the RSC, which has an answer to every question." They hire a bunch of damn interns without properly checking their resumes, and then they get a genie in a bottle. Who will release another genie from a completely different bottle – and this one will be much worse. Alaria didn't know how long she had been unconscious. She didn't know the fate of her companions – they were nowhere to be seen. But she knew for sure that the sea had swallowed almost everything she had with her: all the provisions, all the money, the Calcite map, all the things that reminded her of Rheime, even Elrina's gift... she only had a miraculously surviving diary, some clothes, Granhildr, magically bound to her, and stockings so amazing that even the sea couldn't harm them. Next to her, she found a young man. He looked like one of the sailors from the "Thunder," but the girl wasn't sure. In any case, at least someone had survived. And this guy didn't look like an apostle of arrogance at all. Maybe it really was Tyros? It wasn't that important now – there were much more pressing problems. And Mr. Arrogance might already be at the bottom of the sea. First, she needed to look around. Figure out where she was. And examine the guy. Both for weapons and for injuries. Any help would be useful now – there was no choice.
One of the conversations on the airship.
-- Amamius, how long have you lived in Margel? Or are you not from the capital itself, but from the surrounding areas?
Giyyon hesitates, then quietly follows her. “Are you sure?” he whispers, trying not to attract the attention of the harpies. “We have no chance in an open fight, but maybe we should come up with something else? Perhaps the airship’s engine still works; we could start it and scare them away with the noise, or knock the balloon’s envelope onto them, or something like that?”
- Are you stupid? It’s an NPC without a name, and there’s no experience or stats reward for this fight! - Look at me. Do you think I can lift something heavier than a member of an umbrella? 🙄
