Why would she refuse the opportunity to wave her metal weapon around a little more, something that hadn't happened before... ever?
Veserod gave an awkward smile.
- Why aren't you with your friends right now? Couldn't you find anyone else who would want to play with you? How do you like the game? Is it interesting? - the last question was addressed to the "servant".
— Not really... — admitted the "servant".

If Imelda's presence could be explained quite simply – her behavior was generally inexplicable by the rational logic of ordinary people and was perceived as something as unnatural as her very origin – then the redhead's presence was unexpected. Does studying these subtle matters with this hysteric align with the principles of safety? And why would she refuse the opportunity to wave her metal thing around, which she hadn't done before... ever? However, Alessia wasn't really worried about these questions. They were too insignificant, even by the standards of Baldur.
- Good day, Lady Emilia, - Alessia walked into the hall with her usual composure and greeted the baroness. - I'm here for the magic lesson.
Alessia is given a small manual mentioning several schools of magic:
- Magic of fire
- Magic of water
- Magic of wind
- Magic of trees
- Magic of sun
- Magic of moon
Kalentia silently observed the conversation, preferring not to interfere unless necessary. And when Virgil suggested that one of them, along with Gulveig, take his companion on a tour of Baldur, she gave her friend the opportunity to respond first – Gulveig was surely interested in both learning about her mentor's friend and perhaps discussing with him certain things that were known only to those well-acquainted with Virgil. For a similar reason, the girl did not offer to help her friend – certain things might be awkward to discuss in the presence of someone who was not familiar with those particular details. Therefore, when Gulveig began to fulfill the task assigned to her by her mentor, Kalentia decided to head towards Hans's house and learn more from the former Landsknecht about what kind of training he planned to conduct.
-- I like Moon magic.

"Five minutes, a normal swim."
But then the Temple appeared.
-- The local church was built by the baron himself, -- Vegi smiled pleasantly. -- It was March 31st... -- Hmm, the interesting thing about the date was that it coincided with the birthday of the beloved Almandina, but in what year was the priestess born? And how old is she now? -- Seven hundred and fifty... of the ninth year! -- The crisis passed.
-- The first thing that catches the eye in the temple is the shape of the dome, the symbolism of the Mother in the form of hearts here, here, and here, and I used to be very afraid of this gargoyle... Inside, there are several halls for prayer, music, and education. The priestess often works here with children, especially with her own students who have decided to study music. And, of course, there is a library, and in it are books about the currently living valkyries and Queen Reginleif. Hmm, why am I talking about this outside... Let's take a look inside?
-Leo! - he suddenly stopped and realized that he shouldn't speak so loudly. He went out into the corridor and checked that no one was near his room, then returned to the room and whispered - Leo, I summon you!
Making sure he had the cat's attention, Anders asked him:
-There's a guy in our town named Viktor. He's very smart and mysterious. In fact, he's the one who gave me the book that described the ritual for summoning demons. Do you think I should discuss your successful summoning with him? Or maybe you give him advice too?
Where do we end up when we save the world?
The instructions were indeed brief – they didn't even mention the basic spells for each school of magic. However, we didn't have to wait long for Emilia's response.
-- I like Moon magic.
— I didn't have a choice, only fire!
Will anyone else join?
Will anyone else be there?
Where do we end up when we save the world?

Kalentia finds Hans not far from his home. Today, he looks much better than in previous days.
— Good day, — the Argalian greeted, — how is the garden?
When Virgil left, Gulveig felt less constrained. Still slightly intoxicated by his recent presence, but gradually the feeling was fading.

— Gulveig, hello! — She waved to her, and only then noticed the unfamiliar face and quickly changed her tone to a more formal one. — Almandina Arcadia, a humble servant of the Goddess of Love, at your service. Welcome to the house of Arteria.
— Theodahad Bors, captain of the third squad of knights of the Order of Arteria. — Introducing himself, he bowed politely. — It is an honor to meet you.
— O... How unexpected. You must have traveled a long way. To be honest, you two are quite an unusual combination, can you tell me how you know each other?
- Actually, this is your grandfather's city. By belittling it, you are also belittling your family and yourself. And if your family doesn't even make you proud, then everyone else will ignore it. How many friends do you have in the capital? How many of them genuinely smile at you, and how many whisper behind your back? There are plenty of proud people there too. While you waste your energy trying to denigrate your heritage, they respect theirs. They honor the ancestors who made them who they are. And that's why they are stronger than you. That's why you want to come here and try to make others feel inferior. Didn't your grandfather teach you that? Or your parents? - Veserod smirked bitterly. - Of course not. You've all gone completely mad in your own little world. You know nothing about life, honor, or self-respect. Even the "arrest-thieves," who should understand this by nature, have gone crazy. Everyone is stepping on each other, and as soon as something happens outside the fence, they start complaining about "abomination-nations." Your grandfather built this city with his own hands, feet, teeth, and claws. He carved it out of the rock, tearing his skin and breaking his bones, barely eating or sleeping, all for the sake of ordinary Hans. That's why everyone here loves and respects him. Ordinary people, complex people – it doesn't matter. And he respects and loves them. That's where the strength lies – in having something of your own, protecting it, and being happy. Your grandfather wanted you to understand this yourself, but he miscalculated.
He took Yuyu's hand firmly.
- Stop humiliating yourself. A game is when everyone has fun. But this is not a game; it's a deception.
I don't know about magic yet; I haven't looked into the spell mechanics... Do you think it's worth it to have someone learn magic?
Waking up, Anders decided to summon his personal demon. He pulled on his pants and shirt, then struck the most theatrical pose he could and declared:
-Leo! - he suddenly stopped and realized that he couldn't say it so loudly. He went out into the corridor and checked that there was no one near his room, then returned to the room and whispered - Leo, I summon you!
Making sure he had attracted the cat's attention, Anders asked him:

Revan, did my hero recover from dendroidism? Or do I need to keep taking the pills until the end of the game?
