Rembrandt Zattelbogen's response was categorical.
— No, I can't. — He was talking about the specifications for curses. — And even if I could, I still wouldn't say... The fear of the unknown, so to speak, encourages clients. And there will be no side effects from the session, except that you will have to spend an hour with an unfamiliar old man.
— Grandpa, you might be misunderstood... — Trude apologized for the old man and explained that there was nothing special about the healing esoteric session.

Kalentia suspected that she would receive a similar answer, so she wasn't too surprised, and upon hearing about the absence of side effects, she was already ready to open her mouth and agree, but she didn't have time. Perhaps it was due to the Argalian way of thinking, but upon hearing the old man's words, she didn't even think that they could be interpreted in a double sense, and therefore the apology from his granddaughter surprised the girl somewhat.
— It's okay, — Trude hastened to reassure Kalentia, — I didn't even think of any other interpretation, — after these words, she turned back towards Rembrandt (if she and Trude weren't sitting next to each other, otherwise she would have simply addressed him), — in that case, I am ready for the session right now.

When she changes into a tight-fitting towel and enters the water, the mistress of the springs begins to dance around it, splash water on it, and perform some kind of ritual songs, etc. This continued for almost an hour, and upon completion of the entire procession, it was difficult to say whether it had any effect at all... But something definitely changed.

Kalentia loses the following effects:
Thistle: +1 to Strength, +1 to Spirit, +1000 experience points, -2 to Charisma
Curse of Syzygy: effect unknown.

In the worst-case scenario, Kalentia simply gained a unique, albeit rather strange, experience... for which she had to pay a hefty sum. However, deep down, the girl felt that something had truly changed within her. It was as if a weight had been lifted from her shoulders, although it was difficult to say whether the cause was the ritual itself or the girl's desire for it to work. She felt more confident and at ease than she had in the past month. Therefore, after emerging from the water, the Argalian sincerely thanked Rembrandt for his services and, after saying goodbye to him and Trude, rejoined her companions, ready to embark on patrol.

Gullveig buys a standard set of heavy armor. Spends the night in the forest. +

— And why did I even agree to this? I should have gone to a museum, fought with Rutger's students, or even taken care of the horses—that would have been better than dealing with this idiot, Roheya... Well, I'll be more careful next time.

Eyr gains life experience and learns to avoid unfavorable situations.

— There's nothing to think about here. This guy has no reason to choose you specifically as his target, but it's undeniable that he's dangerous.

-Let's forget about it then, we don't have a choice anyway.

So, are we going to patrol the forest? Does anyone still have something to do?

Anders buys excellent boots.

Either Ilve will spend all his donkeys, or spend them all.

and I don't understand who else is involved in this scheme.

Well, maybe people will go there to drink some more... But this needs to be done in a coordinated manner so that we can get free cognac.

/Unless a goblin reads something/buys something through us, and the Heroes player spends money/experience. But for now, at least, you can use him as a scout./

I was thinking of having a steak next week. If three more people join, I'll have enough to give Hans a gift.

Well, Anders will definitely invest in Agility, at least. I'm just waiting for the right moment for overall coordination.

/The Goblin could buy an item that boosts stats through someone and upgrade his staff with experience. This way, he wouldn't just protect himself from forest penalties, but also increase his HP to a respectable 90. Well, maybe Alex has even better ideas.
Anyway, while everyone is deciding on purchases and upgrades, let's go scouting as an Eagle./

let's go

A) Exit from the town. B) Outskirts of the forest. Here, the eagle spotted a suspicious shop (?). C) River. Here, the eagle spotted a traveler (?). D) Crossroads. Here, the eagle spotted a traveler (?). E) Heart of the forest (thicket). F) Old mill. G) Cave. H) Abandoned mine. Here, a squad of soldiers stopped. I) Old estate. J) Waterfall.

Oh, Thiaral 2, on the outskirts of the forest.
