Knights of Tezoth

When the battle was won, Rust's expression didn't change in the slightest. First, he ordered Manka to heal the fallen one, and then he unceremoniously looked where no one in polite society would even think to look.
- What did I tell you? - He said to Makarena. - This is no ivylai.

There are ways, but they are rare. The flask is not one of them.

Unfortunately, the selection was limited, and you won't be able to stuff your pockets endlessly here.

and how will it work out?

- Having something to equip the masses with is already good, and where else can you find such things nowadays, unless you forge them yourself? Unless you get your hands on battle trophies! And that means an opportunity will come soon enough, - Vargas absentmindedly stroked the hilt of Goldreaver with his thumb. - So, are you in? We're gathering the whole round table here. We've been lounging in silence and peace for too long, time to shake off the rust, or we'll wither away completely.

As much as your inventory can hold.

- There's an opportunity right now. You see, old friend, I'd love to be part of the common cause, but I can't take it on until I resolve another matter. - The Knight of Gallant Valor tells his comrade about a certain beautiful singer named Zateya, who was very popular in the village near Frozenhop. According to the story, she served as a beacon of hope for the locals, but the Mantis didn't like that. She ordered the Knight of Alcove Frenzy to capture her and force her fellow villagers, under threat of torture, to do to her what had been done to many other poor souls in the region. - I want to bring this lady back to the light, you understand? We need to sneak in there quietly and do everything just right, and with luck, we might even strike down the scoundrel.

and how much can it hold?

- The Mantis again? What are you going to do when she's had her fill of blood and lets us go? Who raised her, where did she come from? We'll get your Zateya back. Are you sure you need her in her current state? Honestly speaking, that's not an excuse — you swore an oath back in the day. You can be called upon at any moment, and that moment has come. Can I just walk away from my duties, citing that my delivery never arrived or something? But fine, to sneak in, we need to account for many factors — your general appearance shouldn't be too flashy, and your stride — you're used to walking like an elephant, making the very ground sink beneath you, but you need to be like a cheetah, and it's better to pick a darker time of day, and we need to poison their drinking water supply in advance. Even if they don't drink water but booze, we should slip them something to knock them out. That's exactly how battles are fought, and what else can be done here? And as for the scoundrel, it's high time he got acquainted with the hospital's insides. We won't shortchange him on that.

Manka: Supplies: 8/10, AP: 2/3

Manka: Supplies: 8/10, AP: 2/3

But doesn't Manka have 1/3 now, since she healed Nirina?

When the battle was won, Rust's expression didn't change in the slightest. First, he ordered Manka to heal the fallen one, and then he unceremoniously looked into a place where no one in polite society would even think to look.
- What did I tell you? - He said to Makarena. - This is no ivylai.

— What the hell do you think you're doing? — Stefania protested. — Isn't it enough that everyone here felt sick from her screams? You want more? Well, of course, why defuse the problem when we want to get hit by it twice?

- What did I tell you? - He tossed at Makarena. - This is no ivylai.

- To do and regret, or not to do and regret? In my opinion, better to do and not regret. Manka, take off my armor. - The healer, whose eye was already on the depressive commander-in-the-making, helps the rusty one free himself from the yoke of metal. - I'd advise keeping your distance from me. - Seizing the moment, the rusty one roughly grabs the frightened, barely conscious creature by the neck with one hand, and with the other lifts her chin, carefully examining her facial features. - These eyes urge my second blade to be harder than steel, but still it would be a great loss not to make use of such alluring hilts.

And use them he does — right in front of all the other expeditioners. When done with that endeavor, a swing of his sinister blade painlessly and almost instantly severs Nirina's head.

Then he picks up the severed head and throws it to Odlid.
- Let her be of use to us.
