“Alright, everyone, stay calm. The baron rubbed his eyes, suppressed an oncoming yawn, got up from the table, and, stretching, took a few steps around the room. “What happened to Lady Vivian is, without a doubt, a horrifying and inhumane tragedy that will leave its mark on every resident of this country, both for the servants of the Artery, the imperial family, and us as well.” He stopped and pondered, stretching his neck. “In my personal opinion, no matter how pure our intentions may be, it is unlikely that we will be allowed to participate in the investigation of this case. It is quite possible that the culprits have already been found and will soon face deserved punishment. However, this does not mean that we should not take the initiative and seize the opportunity to show our good intentions, especially since we have already agreed to help the imperial family. If you, as you say, can contact someone from the guard and involve us in this matter, or at least find out the details, that would be excellent news.”
Having finished his light exercise, Rogdan looked out the window, surveying the surroundings of the lower city.
“As for the second part. Yes, the closure of the central square is another unpleasant consequence of the events that have taken place. However, we have a real opportunity to spend the next few days performing deeds for Clematis.” After that, he told everyone interested about the details of the quest with the beastman and the tomb of Crag. “On Monday, I myself need to represent our organization in the imperial palace, so if the journey takes more than a day, I will, unfortunately, not be able to provide my support in these quests.

it's not that Scipio actually thought that principles were less important, but in some cases they could indeed be pushed to the background.

At the entrance to Lindernia's Mirai district, she had to stop at a checkpoint.

"Welcome to the threshold of the Moon Princess's home." The local guard greeted her and nodded towards a small room opposite where he was sitting, indicating that this is where she could leave her belongings. "Beyond this point, passage is only allowed without weapons or other combat gear."

On Thursday evening, Viola once again sought out the master:
-Master Raphael, I would like to talk to you again... your advice yesterday didn't help me at all... even when I was already drunk, as soon as I thought about Master Rogdan, I wanted to scratch his face, if not do something worse, may the Goddess forgive me. This hatred... it seems unnatural to me...

- It's perfectly normal," the merchant waved his hand dismissively. "Believe me, sometimes I feel like scratching his face too. Ha-ha! Just kidding. The main thing is that it wasn't his back.
He took out a hookah, filled it with special tobacco, and lit it.
- So, shall we continue with the rehabilitation program?" He took a deep breath of the sweet smoke, held it in his lungs for a few seconds, exhaled slowly, and leaned back in his chair, feeling a pleasant haze gently envelop his heart, mind, and soul.
He handed her the hookah.
- Don't inhale too deeply. Just a little at a time. And get the baron out of your head, focus on something good. Then we'll call Kaechka, and she'll play something for us... Today was such a busy day - it's time to rest before new endeavors...
For the rest of the evening, Raphael planned to indulge in pleasant relaxation.

On the morning of March 21, 729 (Friday), it became clear that the area around the central square of the capital was cordoned off in connection with the murder of Vivian Air el Sufir that had taken place there.

— What kind of assistance would you like to offer? Vice-Captain of the Clematis Guard, Celestia Coriander, is willing to spare a few minutes of her time...

— The esteemed gentleman with me is Sir Rogdan Kraffmeyer, head of the mercenary organization "Golden Griffin." And also, Shen and Lian Fay. We heard about the outrageous crime that occurred and would like to offer any assistance we can.
