- Huh?.. - Aiyano tilts her head to the side, trying to see someone near Kayasa or behind her, then looks around the room. - So... does that mean he's with us in this room right now? Uh... can you point with your finger so I can see him too?
— You can’t take the words out of a song, Klin. You’re too hard on yourself,” he puts a hand on the knight’s shoulder, “you’re still a member of the ‘Carnelian.’ And still my loyal comrade, with whom we went through Calcite. Although, of course, you shouldn’t force yourself to participate if you’re not in the mood. As for something delicious, there’s no need to even ask. I’ve prepared some food for Sanex as well. I think you’ll see it yourself, but these are pies: some with cabbage, and others with harpy meat. Take them and don’t be shy.
— Definitely,” he nods firmly, “I will keep that in mind. If you ever decide to and need help, you can contact me. Assuming it’s within my power, I will definitely help you. Of course, if you don’t want to do all of this yourselves, without outside help. The same applies to the search for your mysterious remedy.
- Come on, - she says with a skeptical smile, shaking her head. - You don't look like a homunculus. They... Uh... What are they like? To be honest, I don't even know. Is that really true? - she crosses her arms across her chest, equally skeptical.
—Pies? That’s great, thank you. I hope I’ll be able to try your cooking someday. Although I think I’ve said that before… —the knight chuckled. —As for the rest, we’ll see how things turn out. Since you and your winged companion had a successful venture, I suppose the return of Her Lightness is not far off…? It seems to me that we are gradually moving towards the finale of our mission, which began with Calcite. All that remains is to understand what awaits us at the end.
—And thank you for that too. Everything will, of course, depend on the circumstances; it might just remain an empty hope. By the way, you reminded me that we don’t necessarily have to make this quest a personal matter for a handful of surviving ascetics. If anyone wants to add a brick to the foundation of the revival of our homeland, no matter how modest, we should be happy to accept any help.
- If you read this and then share your thoughts with me, I will consider that a perfectly acceptable return gift.
-- I, in turn, reside nearby, in [K-1]. The multi-tasking combat squad "Carnelian". If you want to work in that direction, feel free to contact me, -- a charismatic smile. -- And in general, I'll be glad to see you.
Contrary to the gray voices, the girl didn't try to lure anyone further with pastries, as a nobleman would likely perceive that as strange. Why does she carry them around? Is she an insatiable glutton who can't take two steps in the city without reaching into a paper bag of pastries? )) But if she visits the headquarters, that's a different matter...
— A new mission? — a wry smile, — You can't guess it right away. I have some assumptions, but they are too vague. And my life has taught me that events can always unfold in the most unexpected way. I never even suspected that I would end up here, in such circumstances, — Alaria didn't continue her thought with words about conversations with a very human death knight.

—And I didn't suspect that... Well, yes, you're right. —decided the death knight, not wanting to return to negativity. —By the way, regarding life paths, I think I'll also join in reading our archive in the coming days, if, of course, no one objects. It... distracts the mind well, and in general, it pleasantly complements knowledge, as if just reading makes you smarter and stronger. At least, that's how I felt.
No, it remained in Baldur.

— That's right. A good thing. Productive, — he nods approvingly, — and very informative. I didn't even suspect what Welfern was like in the old days. Take Shinalun, for example, ha-ha! It would be interesting to see the people who lived in those times, to talk to them, but alas. If you ever want to discuss what you've read, I'm always at your service.

The first one is slightly more appealing than the second.
—I was more impressed by Silion, but that's probably because I'm a boring person. Actually, I just realized that his name has a somewhat ambiguous translation from Old Kridean... Anyway, to be honest, I wanted to create a sort of personal ranking for myself to better assess my impression of each of the rulers. But maybe it would be interesting to compare it with other Carnelians after everyone has finished reading, and thus choose the best ruler of our group, hehe...
— If we're talking about impressive rulers, then I suppose I agree with you. Based on what I've read so far, he seems like a ruler who embodies many of the best qualities of his descendants and predecessors, while also lacking any significant personal flaws. As for a ranking... I hadn't thought about that, — the warrior paused, admitting that she sometimes judged the kings and emperors of Welfern based on their appearance, — but we could certainly do that. We have a surprisingly well-read group here, although I wouldn't have guessed it for some. I think it would be a good way to spend our time. You should share this idea with Erephir when you have a chance.
