- What's the point? Oh, everyone loves to use that empty word... Right now, our legion, the White Lily legion, and the Pain Eaters legion are there. You don't look like bandits, so I think they'll let you pass.
If all bandits looked like bandits... - Alright, thank you very much. I'm going with the characters from Arandor; we're heading in the same direction.
-- You will definitely find a better use for them than for this wealthy fool. Who is he?
- We will definitely find a better use for them! The fool's name is Cezan Brasakhog. He moved to the city recently. His father, a coal tycoon, left him a large inheritance. And Cezan has been spending it recklessly for about ten years. He hired an inexperienced Sorceress from the academy and is recruiting mercenaries through Clean Hands (an organization that provides mercenary services; Quint knows about it). He wants to go himself as well. In general, I don't know what he's thinking, but if he and his people manage to survive in the wastelands, find a Castle, find the eggs, and so on, there is a suspicion that Mr. Brasakhog will not return home. We need to make sure that the eggs don't end up with someone else. If, in the process of your work, Mr. Brasakhog stumbles and hits his head on a stone, I won't be angry.

—Felian. —the fairy introduced himself briefly.
The girl looked the fairy up and down and bit her lower lip. - And I'm Bridget, nice to meet you! - she held out her hand to him.

If all bandits looked like bandits... - Okay, thank you very much. I'm going with the characters from Arandor, as long as we're on the same path.
Almost reaching the city gates, the fairy, demon, and elf saw the flag of the Republic, Aksot, and the flag of the Dead Heads, the IX Legion, on one of the towers. Three guards in the armor of this legion stood at the gate. One of them had his entire face covered with a tattoo that resembled a skull; he was sitting on a barrel and digging the ground with his sword. The other had a mask made of a human skull on his face; he stood still, with his arms folded across his chest, and stared straight ahead. The third looked like an ordinary man, but with a rifle on his back. He was talking to a girl who was standing near the city gate. A large box stood next to her.

- Now there's nothing to be afraid of, - the warrior encouraged his companions. - Ours... "I really hope so." Nevertheless, he sat in a position that would allow him to react to any nearby threat at any moment. - You better prepare the documents and everything else. We're clearly not going to be greeted by your standard, half-drunk guard at the gate.
The girl looked the fairy up and down and bit her lower lip. - I'm Bridget, nice to meet you! - she extended her hand to him.
Felian had hoped to see the promised map in the outstretched hand, but he had to respond with a formal handshake. - I'm glad to meet you too, Bridget. I didn't expect to find such a friendly welcome here, especially... in light of recent events.
Approaching Axoth, Maylin saw what had been a battlefield just yesterday. Corpses of soldiers from Lafir and Tsutarr lay everywhere. The soldiers of Tsutarr wore strange collars. Among the dead, warriors from some of the republic's legions were occasionally visible. As they advanced, the number of corpses increased, and eventually, they were replaced by skeletons. It seemed as if their skin, muscles, and other organs had disappeared in an instant, leaving only bones. At the same time, their clothes, armor, and weapons were intact. Maylin also noticed that here and there, on the ground, lay black, shiny spheres in the sun, about the size of an adult's fist. Almost reaching the city, she saw a destroyed camp and a large black sphere, approximately 2 meters in diameter. Next to it lay the skeleton of a huge griffin. Not far from it, skeleton workers were bustling about, loading the remains of fallen warriors onto a cart. And there was more than one such cart.
Almost reaching the city gates, the girl saw the flag of the Republic, Axoth, and the flag of the Dead Heads, the IX Legion, on one of the towers. Three guards stood at the gates, wearing the armor of this legion. One of them had his entire face covered with a tattoo resembling a skull; he sat on a barrel and gazed thoughtfully at the sky. The other wore a mask made from a human skull; he stood still, with his arms folded across his chest, staring straight ahead. The third looked like an ordinary man, but with a rifle on his back. He was talking to a girl who was standing near the city gates. A large box stood next to her.
-- Rich, extravagant, and stupid, that's my client. I'll do my best.
- Excellent. You're free to go, - after these words, Modain left the room, as always, without saying goodbye.

Having made sure he had everyone's attention, Elisonn began a more somber speech.
"Although the current situation has brought us all pleasure and provided certain opportunities for enjoyment, there are also more... distressing aspects. Firstly, the appearance and activation of three Republic legions near the city. Undoubtedly, after the sabotage, they will all increase their vigilance, which means that it is becoming dangerous for us on the streets as well.
"Secondly, some unknown individuals managed to catch the entire city, and us along with it, off guard. This suggests how blind we are, and that our wonderful society could theoretically collapse at any moment, all due to a lack of information. If we want to survive and continue to enjoy life, we need to do something. Does anyone have any suggestions?"
"Oh! I do!" said Vikayla enthusiastically. "We need to establish contacts with Giriza!"
Corchetus woke up from his doze and looked at the woman with incomprehension.
Nebok, did anyone else come to the meeting besides my companions?
- Now there's nothing to be afraid of, - the warrior encouraged his companions. - We're among our own... "I certainly hope so." Nevertheless, he sat in a position that would allow him to react to any nearby threat at any moment. - You'd better get the papers and everything else ready. We're clearly not going to be greeted by your average half-drunk guard at the gate.

Seeing the cart, the one in the mask blocked the road. The tattooed man approached him, and the rifleman hurried to the cart. - Good morning! - he said and began to inspect the vehicle, pausing his gaze on Nysho, after which he turned to Minoru. - It seems you are a merchant. - Yes, and a citizen of this city! - the merchant took out his passport and showed it to the legionary. The latter carefully examined the document and nodded. - I see, I see. And this... - This is my driver, my guards, and my daughter. What happened here? - Lafirians, Mr. Nakano. But you don't have to worry. Almost all of them were killed. - What does "almost" mean? - It means that remnants of their army are still roaming the area. - So, there is still reason to worry? - Don't worry, you'll be safe inside the city. Go ahead. - Thank you.
Once they're inside, Sid can exchange money, buy a map, and ask the legionaries anything he needs.

We're holding our ground.

Seeing the strange group, the one in the mask blocked the road. The tattooed man also approached, and the rifleman broke away from the conversation and joined his comrades.
- Hello, are you heading to Axoth? - the rifleman asked, pausing his gaze on Thiolas, but then quickly shifted it to Beleroth and Tarlion.

Having made sure he was being listened to, Elisonn began a more tragic speech. -- Although the current situation has brought pleasure to all of us and provided certain opportunities for enjoyment, there are also more... Sad moments. First, the appearance and activation of three Republic legions near the city at once. Undoubtedly, after the sabotage that took place, they will all increase their vigilance, which means that it will also become dangerous for us on the streets. -- The second point is that some unknown individuals managed to catch the entire city by surprise, and with it – us. This suggests how blind we are, and that our wonderful society can also theoretically collapse at any moment, all because of a lack of information. If we want to survive and continue to enjoy life, we need to do something. What suggestions do you have? -- Oh! I have one! -- said Vikaila enthusiastically. -- We need to establish contacts with Giriza! Corcetus woke up from a half-sleep and looked at the woman with incomprehension. Nebok, did anyone else come to the meeting besides my companions?
But you only have them...

- Yes, I've heard about this city. What happened here?
- The Lafirs attacked. Apparently, they decided to start a war. But we, along with the Lilies and Devourers, happened to pass by...
The tattooed man looked suspiciously at Tarleon. The legionnaire in the mask had an even more intense gaze.

- Well, yes, the events were significant - here is your map. - I knew that what they say about male fairies is true; some even think that you don't exist at all...
