The n-th expansion was underway, and players were still thinking that the GM wouldn't throw criminals into their party...

...

Halmeldira won't be with you anymore, so keep an eye out...

— With us? No, I mean in general. But yes, they do something, they study what's happening in the world and what has happened, and they speculate about what will happen. Things like historical events, natural phenomena, and so on.

- Interesting, - the astrologer said with genuine interest. - Who can I talk to to find out more about how to join this group of researchers, or is working with books a mandatory step on this path?

Bubble of life force

Pack of cigarettes

"It's literally the joke that if you eat broccoli after every cigarette, you'll compensate for the negative effect and be as healthy as an ox," thought Ayko. "Well, overall, a very interesting candidate. We need to take a look at her, but we preliminarily approve, we need a doctor."

She moves on to the letter from Astellia Star.

/And I'm off to sleep./

—Kenshiro, Klin. Prepare for a long voyage south. Garret, Alaria – it’s up to you whether you will work for her highness or not. If so, go with Kenshiro and Klin, or head to Carnelian. That’s all for now, await further instructions.

—It will be done. —the knight bowed. —We will depart today, or can we know the date of our departure?

Somewhere on the outskirts of Margel.



A certain woman was carelessly thrown to the ground by an athlete in a mask, but her spy-like physique and the soft ground beneath her feet allowed her to land without much trouble.
— And after the last time, you're still not wearing a neck brace? I was sure it would put you out of commission for at least half the month.
— A kind gentleman provided timely assistance, for which I am eternally grateful... Now I can continue my mission.
— Ah, that samurai guy.
— He smelled the same as you.
— You're so perverse.
— That's not what I meant!
— Ha-ha, I got it. I felt it too... It was unsettling. If it weren't for that, I would have smashed his skull right there.
— Are you sure? Maybe he would have beaten you. Unlike you, he was full of an aura of dignity.
— Haa, are you falling for him? Ha-ha.
— It's none of your business... — The woman briefly looked away shyly. — Lance, Farellia... Only you can help the homeland.
— Are we back to that again? You know my price.
— I can't promise you that. Even if it's for the good of the country, my honor and dignity are not something I can easily part with.
— Then I'm not interested.
— Today, news reached me... Although it pains me to even think about it, but... If you complete this mission, His Majesty has agreed to give Her Highness to you in marriage...
— Pfft, you should know very well that I won't tie myself down to one woman.
— His Majesty doesn't mind if you have... Mistresses... — The spy's face contorted with disgust at the feeling in her heart. — And why... Why did a person with your talents turn out to be someone like you...
— O-oh? Wait a minute. Does that mean I'll be the next king?
— It's... Not impossible.
— O... Oh! That's interesting! What do I need to do?
— ... Your task is very simple. You need to deliver this letter to Atropos, the capital of Nephiria.
— And that's all? What's the catch?
— Anyone who crosses the border of Nephiria will be met by hordes of undead. Only a person with your athleticism will be able to avoid clashing with them and withstand the miasma of this country.
The athlete takes off his mask.
— It's time to change the mood, — :D, — and get to work!

—It shall be done. —bowed the Knight. —Shall we depart today, or may we know the date of our departure?

— On Thursday.

Wandering through Margele, as well as familiarizing herself with historical and cultural literature, only seemed to confirm Klin's words rather than refute them. No, there was, of course, a small chance that someone had built a small town in a godforsaken place, her hometown, where everyone spoke Reimian and there was no mention of Enclessia, let alone Erinium or the Reim dynasty, but the chance of that was infinitesimally small. And frankly, the story about a parallel world sounded more plausible than all of this! This meant that Alaria was indeed here as a cosmic nomad, in a completely foreign but at the same time so similar world to her own. And if other undead like her ended up in this world, then... perhaps Elrina's disappearance from Alfard Asparagus's mansion was also caused by a similar ritual? Of course, even if that was indeed the case, Elrina could have ended up on the other side of the world. In any case, such a hypothetical possibility was not particularly relevant at the moment. However sad it was to admit, Alaria did not have the time or opportunity to chase after ghosts that might or might not be in this world. The upcoming work, of a voluntary-compulsory nature, was a much more pressing matter.

On Monday morning, Aria gathered Kenshiro, Klin, Garret (?), and Alaria in one of the villa's halls.
— Kenshiro, Klin. Prepare for a long voyage south. Garret, Alaria—it's up to you whether you will work for Her Highness or not. If so, go with Kenshiro and Klin, or head to Carnel. That's all for now, await further instructions.

The wording was extremely curious. Those who did not want to work for Her Highness were not sent off in all directions... but directly to a mercenary detachment, which Alaria had only heard about in passing during her brief tour of Margele. Of course, someone might argue that this was just a "recommendation," but something told the Tanarian that the recommendation would have been worded differently. In essence, she was now being offered a choice between working directly for the princess, going south, or indirectly through a conditionally independent organization. Either way, Alaria had simply gotten used to not trusting people and looking for a catch in their words. However, this did not mean that the work would be the same in both places. The journey south clearly hinted at something in the spirit of her "mission" in Beliade. A very dirty, but necessary for the future of Reim, job. Carnel, on the other hand... it would apparently be used to solve local problems? It was difficult to say without a clear understanding of the organization. Perhaps this option involved fewer risks, but also promised less prestige. To be honest, refusing to work directly for the princess, despite the risks, in favor of becoming a mercenary who still worked for the princess, was not even a choice. The work in the south was clearly more important, not to mention the fact that Alaria now owed a small debt, the price of her life. The second option, on the other hand, reeked of plain cowardice and, perhaps, naivety. A display of weakness. This was not the path she wanted to choose. After all, as one of her long-deceased compatriots said, "A person devoid of will is like a worm."
— It would only be right for me to repay good with good. South it is, then," said the warrior, following the Kriader. At the same time, she thought that she should ask him, "What does your south actually consist of?" If this world was like her own, then it clearly wouldn't be anything good.

It's much easier to look to the left of my posts.

Rance, in general, never shied away from deception in order to have a chance to flirt...

Oh, by the way, now you can go to the tavern, since it has been "cleared"…

:D

A symbol worthy of a hall of horrors.

- Well, thank you for the answers, it was very interesting. I think the readers will be satisfied, and we managed to answer many of their questions. And if they have any specific topics left, I think they are capable of finding this information on their own. Let them use their own minds for a change! If you don't mind, we could end with a short blitz – as far as I know, people like that.

1. Favorite food and drink?
2. Favorite flower?
3. Favorite gemstone?
4. Favorite season?
5. Favorite pastime or hobby?
6. Your greatest strength?

- And finally, it would be nice to hear a short message from Hime Denki for the esteemed readers and fans of Her Highness. A few words will suffice.

6. Cleavage and incredibly long lines

Sorry, guys. I'm swamped with work; I need to draw a bunch of cards for the art chat exchange. Starfield is coming out in a few days, and then I have programming courses starting. I'm not abandoning the project, but I'll be slow and won't be able to respond often. I'm taking a break now; I need to find some inspiration and write a long post, and also rescue Beata from Rinze's clutches, which will also require some effort.

I feel sorry for you. This expansion is better than life itself. It's a paradise for sensitive souls. And you're missing out on it for some programming! Starfield? Pfft, Todd Howard hasn't even played our expansion.

There is no god but Todd Howard, buy Skyrim and be happy
