The end of the jewel era?
Dear readers, you may remember that two years ago, on March 15th, 727, the empire's government began issuing its own currency called the "Air" as an alternative to the jewel, which was used in almost every corner of the world. We remind you that this currency was created and introduced into the economies of the countries of Visteria by the Church of Artery and dominated the markets of all developed countries on the continent for many centuries. This was, of course, largely due to the fact that the church gently suppressed attempts by allied countries to introduce their own currency, explaining that such actions would bring nothing but problems for ordinary people and serious interstate conflicts. Nevertheless, the government of Empress Astrea Air el Sufir insisted on its own and, moreover, just the other day issued a new decree on a tax on the use of jewels. Starting this month, an additional tax of 35% will be levied on all monetary transactions conducted using this currency! Therefore, we strongly advise you to make your purchases with caution! We also remind you that you can exchange currency at a rate of 1 jewel for 9 air in any bank in the empire.
Revan said that having slave owners in the organization could backfire, even on ordinary members, and not just on the slave owners and the leader themselves.
Well, my Shane has nothing to fear; he's a decent guy who wouldn't do anything bad. So, I'm for allowing him to stay.
So, for now, I'm not even sure if it's worth presenting "Golden Griffin" as an official organization, instead of proceeding individually.
Just looking at Rogdan's face makes Viola lose her composure. His words make her so angry that her fists clench, and she barely manages to restrain herself from slashing his belly or, even better, strangling him with her own hands.
Just so you know, the slave marks on the border aren't checked.
You need them.
Valdemar tossed the newspaper onto the table, conspiratorially winked at his fellow party members, and whispered:
-- Well, guys, let's think about how we can handle the pass. It's pointless for the whole group to go together, that's for sure. Raf, of course, will get through on his own... And Rogdan, with Mir and those who look more presentable, could also get through openly, but it will be difficult with all sorts of bandit faces, sorcerers, and, hmm, personally unfree individuals. Of course, we have three units of valuable living capital that can guarantee success with any soldier, but, as you understand...

Thus, after considering and weighing everything, Shen decided that it would be better to register than to hide in the sewers like some outcasts or criminals.
After reading the newspaper and finding it not particularly interesting, Yves headed to go through registration.
— So, what do we have here? — The captain greeted Yves briefly and began personally examining what the traveler had brought with him. — A bow, some knives... Are you a hunter or something? I hope you're not a bandit. — Without waiting for an answer, he continued examining the items until he came across "Himoaho's Ethics." — Oh, an interesting book. Do you enjoy philosophy? And take off your cloak, if you please. — Eyil took out a notebook and drawing tools from his own bag and began sketching Yves, making notes about his physique and other features. He instructed his assistant to record the answers Yves would give to questions. — Well then, philosopher, what is your purpose in coming to the empire, and how long will you stay? Did you come alone, or are you with someone from the crowd in the waiting room? Do you have any acquaintances in this country, and where do you plan to stay? Do you have money for your time in the country?
