“Yes, I never imagined that in these lands, every day on the road would be accompanied by a new misfortune, even worse than the previous one,” Alaric says to Ann through Alaria. “And how do the locals manage to reach adulthood with such twists of fate! Now I can fully understand the importance of Shiris’ teachings. In any case, congratulations on achieving your main goal. And I hope the scorpion will no longer be able to disturb these lands.” (because I got an achievement for stepping on the same tile as the players lol)

—Indeed, I never imagined that in these lands, each day's journey would be accompanied by a new misfortune, even more terrible than the last. —says Klin to An, through Alaria. —And how do the locals manage to reach adulthood with such a string of bad luck! I can now fully understand the importance of Shiris' teachings. However, congratulations on achieving your main goal. And I hope the scorpion will no longer be able to plague these lands. (because I got an unintended reward from the players by stepping on the same square as them, lol)

— Thank you. — An politely bows to her escorts, and then hands Klin the promised reward for completing the task. — The desert is dangerous and full of horrors. We try not to leave the cities without a good reason. We pray to Shiris, among other things, so that what we saw on our way here happens to us less often.

— Do you feel anything different compared to the previous picture?

- I want to take it and summon
- I don't feel any significant internal changes, except perhaps the desire to compare it with the previous one, highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of both, in order to rank them in terms of visual appeal, - Merel continued to answer. - And it looks more unusual. Who is this?

- I just want to summon one.

— This is my ex, — the priest joked (?), after which he showed Merel the next picture.

— What's this one?

Beauty is above 9, the curse doesn't work.

Figa Rafik is a philosophical guy; I thought Beata had problems with people...

— What is it this time?
.

It's my ex.

- Well... Thank you, Chimera Denka, that was a comprehensive answer, - Nihonka bows. - I see that you should have seized the opportunity to visit the Calcite King while you could, instead of wasting time on trivial matters and some points of intersection in our life paths that I hadn't realized before. Perhaps that's why my soul responded to the call. To be honest, I've seen many times how those in power, falsely blinded by their material might, have tried to draw from the well of knowledge and power that is beyond their natural nature, but you are the first, as far as I can tell, who knows what she is doing. This feeling is new to me; I would describe it as "refreshing." You don't need to worry about me. My path is dedicated to resisting otherworldly evil and providing as much help as I can to those in need, so I don't see any reason for our paths to diverge drastically. I only hope that in your beautiful future world, cleansed of "immigrant" influence, there will still be a place for me and other "born" ones, - the last remark was accompanied by a sad, weak smile

The journey to the Temple proved to be truly arduous, as if fate itself was testing them. On the very first day, they barely avoided two bandit ambushes, which they managed to escape solely thanks to the talents of their employer. As if these problems weren't enough, fate decided to increase the difficulty and turned nature itself against them... ironically, taking the scorpion, which the group was tasked with eliminating, to the afterlife. For a complete set of misfortunes, all that was missing was some maiden from the pages of the Vishnya encyclopedia, suddenly jumping out from the nearest dune to carry Klin or Kenshiro away to her lair and be extremely disappointed by the endurance of her new prey. And all this on the way to the place of worship of the local goddess of fortune! Considering the items taken by the eternally hungry sands, the costs of the job already significantly exceeded the promised reward. The actual destination of their journey looked impressive, but at the same time, somewhat sad. The legacy of ancient Calcite architecture, a great monument of antiquity, was in disrepair. Only a few pilgrims, like An, occasionally came to maintain some semblance of order here. And now, the three of them, like these pilgrims, found themselves in this place of power. Alaria herself had not worshipped any higher powers for a long time, although she somehow managed to attract the attention of Miss Cosmos, who had given her a second chance. A chance for which she was, in general, grateful to the mysterious celestial being. Nevertheless, the question of worship as such was not on the agenda now – she was visiting Shiris, enjoying the hospitality of the ancient Calcite goddess. Therefore, it would be proper for the Tanarian to show due respect while she was in her domain. Of course, after first learning the details of the rituals from An, in order to pay homage properly and not offend the goddess of fortune. Spending 1 OD on prayer.

— What is it this time?

- Nothing, just an ordinary guy, I think, - the astrologer replied boredly.

Alexa, shall we pray?

— Thank you. — Ann politely bows to her escorts, then hands Klin the money promised for completing the task. — The desert is dangerous and full of horrors. We try not to leave the cities without a good reason. We pray to Shiris, among other things, so that what we saw on our way here happens to us less often.

—Yes, now I understand you well. Perhaps one day these places will be covered with railways, and flying ships will conquer the skies... I don't know if it will be blasphemy, an encroachment on God's throne, and a violation of the very essence of the established order here... But I can say one thing: there will be far fewer innocent victims.
After that, the inspired mountaineer also decides to pray to the goddess of luck.

- Actually, no, he's quite unique. One of our mutual acquaintances wants to hire this guy to work at her dream establishment... once it opens.

I would suggest that, yes.

- Nothing, just an ordinary guy, I think,

— Right. For the next stage, I lack the necessary canvas. Don't go anywhere, I'll be back soon. An hour later, "Tentacle" returns with a new painting and shows it to Merel.

Merel is overcome with a surge of anger and hatred; he draws Valis and turns the painting into nothing. — Hmm... Yes, it seems my guess was correct. Tell me, what did this canvas make you feel?

— Hmm... Yes, it seems my guess was correct. Tell me, what feeling did this artwork evoke in you?

— The resolution is too high; it extends beyond the post's boundaries.

— Okay. I don't have the necessary canvas for the next stage. Don't go anywhere, I'll be right back.

Lol. I wonder how many people Merel will manage to kill before the guards stop him.

And how many frogs will he manage to kill in the meantime...
