- Oh dear! We hope she's okay, that everyone is alive and well!
- And if it's not a secret, what happened? Maybe we can help somehow?
- Alas, I dislike discussing someone else's tragedy and can't help here.
- That's sad! And...
- ...you're right, we shouldn't discuss a person behind their back," Guion interrupted Beata, who was about to ask for all the details, "thank you for the information. It's a pity that it happened. I don't remember being there, but I heard it was quite a nice place.
Looking at the remaining hour, the couple heads home to consider whether they will allow the beauty to participate in a photoshoot at age 12.

She changes clothes and heads out, bowing to the artist.
"After Julian and I parted ways, I had to find other means of earning a living in the new place. Fortunately, the city where we split proved to be rich with opportunities. Not as rich as another one where I subsequently spent much more time, but there was nothing to complain about. Although in between bouts of mercenary work, I had to try my hand at a new path as a general laborer. It wasn't the easiest or best-paying job, but I didn't have much choice. Still honest and dignified labor. It must have been funny for the local laborers, a couple of years later, to see a former colleague at a beauty pageant.
Among other things, during that period of my life, I tried to abstain from alcohol. I didn't want a repeat of that situation. As a result, I switched to milkshakes and discovered a love for sweets, ha-ha. Perhaps that is one of the reasons why I later decided to develop my culinary skills. Besides being tasty, it's pleasant and useful in life. And it helps put one's thoughts in order.
As for my adventures, perhaps I will describe them later. Not necessarily. For now, I'll make do with a list of interesting—and not so interesting—personalities:
KLC — possessor of a sharp tongue and an equally sharp mind. Difficult temperament, but it is hard to find someone more devoted to their country and their cause than him. He marches proudly forward through life.
TSD — the embodiment of all negative qualities that can be characteristic of aristocrats. A power-obsessed scoundrel and villain.
Agam — an archdemon of greed.
Calamansi — an archdemon of lies.
Thomas — a man without a face or a history. A mysterious man who, according to rumors, went as food for the harpies.
Seliad — a colleague in trade in several senses. Also a swordsman, but we met during part-time work. Later, we took on different jobs. According to his comrades-in-arms, he died bravely while performing a mission.
Tsukiko — I remember when I was applying for the part-time job, I witnessed a scene where she was also asking to be a general laborer but was refused. An extremely skilled swordswoman with whom I later worked together. The terror of bandits and own-kind. So full of enthusiasm that she constantly breaks her swords. One of Seliad's colleagues. She seemed utterly unlucky.
Livia — a talented Sorceress, though a bit self-contained. She clears out filth with her magic no worse than Tsukiko does with her katana. Unfortunately, even immense magical potential could not save her, and she fell victim to some bandit. Seliad's colleague.
Ayano — I never met her personally, but I heard many good things from Livia and Tsukiko. A talented monster hunter who leaves not a single spot behind. I also heard that in terms of temperament, she could compete with LC. I wonder if they ever clashed heads over this?
Eldir — Livia's brother, whom she once mentioned. I dread to imagine what happened to him when news of his older sister's death reached him.
Bedivere — a long-eared Knight without fear or reproach. He fit the traditional image of the "ideal knight" from the fantasies of a certain type of woman so well that I jokingly called him "Boudoir" to myself. He died at the hands of the same bandit as Livia.
Zinnia — a fellow countrywoman. An old lady with a very difficult temperament, although she means well and it's hard to blame her. I'm not sure why she set out on travels at her age. She shared the fate of Livia and Bedivere.
Nisho — the victim of the bandit whose honor the trio above defended.
Halmeldir — once a companion and comrade, who turned into a vile traitor. If only his sword mastery were for noble goals.
One-Eye — a small fry who manages to survive even where more talented warriors would fall. I don't know if it's luck or bandit cunning.
Jack — an accomplice of the aforementioned bandit.
Joe — another one of his accomplices.
Shak — seems like a big and fearsome snake-man, but mentally he seems stuck in childhood. That doesn't make him any less talented as a warrior.
Cyclops — a master of sea ambushes.
L — the embodiment of meanness and cunning, who is always one step ahead.
Aidos — you know, there are sometimes stories about heroes who laugh death in the face. Looking into the eyes of a monster, they simply march forward bravely, thus demonstrating their courage—no horrors frighten them. And this is a monster, looking into whose metaphorical eyes I saw myself. Are the heroes from the stories I mentioned ready for such a thing? It was hard not to see parallels in our life experiences, in our attitudes. Even though I do not share his destructive views and never committed the same atrocities, it's sometimes hard to shake off gloomy thoughts. What if I, when I was younger, had fallen under the influence of such a person? What would have become of me now? Would I be one of the monsters that I now actively condemn? I suppose there is only reason to be glad that I didn't.
Elrina — probably my closest friend. Educated, polite, generous, determined, and enterprising... her positive qualities could be described for hours. It was pleasant to sit with her, chat about this and that over a breakfast I prepared and a cup of coffee. Elrina, you will likely never read these lines, but how I miss you now. I hope all is well with you.
Altina — a pleasant girl who was demoted in rank due to discipline problems. She tried to make amends but, unfortunately, fell as the brave do in the process.
Imp — a woman of many talents who lives for the stage.
Asparagus — a sick sadist.
Cedric — a living example that talent cannot be bought. A lover of throwing money around in hopes of finding friendship.
Dice — if you see such a doctor, it's better to turn around and go the opposite way.
Vidon — a fellow countryman whom I once encountered at a tournament. I wonder how I would have performed in that fight now.
Skammis — I can't say I was closely acquainted with him, but he gave the impression of being a very shady type. He didn't inspire a desire to know more.
Gilon — a caring grandfather who is ready to risk his life for the comfort of his family. Selflessness is not lacking, but it seems to me that his relatives would prefer he live out his old age beside them.
Kurat — a depressive nihilist who grew bored with routine. He was an interesting enough conversationalist, but in the end, he broke under stress.
Jerl — a close friend of Kurat, as it seemed to me from their communication. He had peculiar manners and preferred to dress in an overseas fashion.
Gilos — a master of woodworking and owner of the "Tree of Life". After meeting him, the name began to evoke bad associations. He thinks with his tree of life.
Sewer Hermit — the worst kind of scum you can encounter in the sewers.
Delirium — a wise and well-read man whose conversations helped me greatly in my time. An intellectual with a capital I. Unfortunately, his life ended shortly after our acquaintance. He gave the impression of someone destined for a great fate.
Fever — Delirium's son. A pleasant young man who was broken by the death of almost all the people close to him. A tragic figure.
Celia — a maid who isn't quite a maid. Delirium's bodyguard, who shared his fate.
Syrus — a skilled and talented captain who did not survive his last visit to land. He seemed like a worthy man to me.
Hesper — a pompous buffoon suffering from an inferiority complex. Not surprising, given his older brother. Perhaps with age he would have gained wisdom, but fate decided otherwise. It's strange to write this and realize that many of the people I knew are already dead.
Kyoko — a "mentor" who teaches only bad things.
Twice — a brilliant industrialist, an incomparable manager, and a master of the sword. An ideal worth striving for.
Arita — a winged mountain of muscle who turned out to be a traitor.
Shriveled Sohey — I don't remember his name, but I had never before seen such old elves. Just how old was he?
Magnolia — a melancholic trader of exotic goods.
Edis — the blacksmith who forged "Dignity". A man of sad fate, broken by the death of his daughter.
Riz — a weapons seller who knew how to handle his assortment well. He was involved in dark dealings.
SR — a selfless woman who loves her country.
TR — a monster greedy for power.
UR — a clown.
LR — a snow queen, and that in several senses.
KR — a dead clown.
RR — a mystery of a woman who perhaps doesn't even exist.
Shizuki — the owner of the coffee shop where I once worked. A good woman, but she loved to exploit my mercantile nature.
Taipan — a self-confident savage.
Dicentra — a sorceress who dreams of a magocracy.
Verbena — a noble person whom some might call overly soft-hearted, and others overly conscientious.
Ipomoea — an entrepreneur for whom money comes first.
Nano — someone who loves to shoot and make good money. Given her employer, she is even more mercantile than I am.
Denim — another greedy mercenary.
Beretta — a colleague of the two mercenaries above.
Nisse — a knight in shining armor, an example of aristocratic nobility.
Falis — probably one of the most powerful wizards I've ever dealt with. Fortunately, at that time we pursued common interests.
Sen Izaya — a blond thug.
Leon — a boy with a shattered psyche. An extremely sad sight.
Lilia — a mad cultist with a friendly face."
Alright, that's all for now, as I've completely run out of steam by the end. And I've clearly forgotten someone. It seems there are 81 entries.
