Posts from ☀️ Arselia and Akonia

- Well, if it won't be a problem for you, you can just prepare extra food for the staff. After all, we primarily care about the patients.

- If my request doesn't seem strange to you, I will be ready to cooperate with you, even though that might not be the most appropriate word for such an event. In our country, there are many people, each with their own life and unique story, but when their time comes to an end, most of them disappear without a trace. For example, there are tragic news about Kriedaar; many different people lived there, but now no one really remembers them. Their names? Their personalities? Their deeds? Their relationships? Their dreams? All of this has vanished, and I find this to be a very sad aspect of our existence. Therefore, I would like to preserve the memory of those people of the empire who are no longer with us, even if only in ink on paper.

-- There are many questions, now that I have earned your trust. I congratulate you on your upcoming coronation, Your Highness; you are definitely needed by the Empire now more than ever. However, what about His Majesty? Please tell me what is happening. It seems that the lack of publicly available information about his... condition after the attack by Despair is not just a political gesture. Nevertheless, we have just witnessed the capabilities of Margel's search engine, so what is happening, is there hope, and what is its source? Can we be of any help?

-- May I also ask how many Aconian stones you have collected so far? It seems that with almost every meeting, you become stronger; I believe that your progress is already significant, but in order to plan the remaining work, I would like to have an estimate. And... you know, if you could reveal a little more about the nature of your achievements in studying this sacred past and gathering its power, I would be grateful, but I will understand if the time is not yet right. After all, I don't even have mind immunity right now; I can't be sure that this secret will die with me.

-- Sad news about Nephiria, but I must say that this explains a lot. I have a secret idea that I haven't even told my master yet, although perhaps this precaution is unnecessary. Just because it seems so... that it could change everything.

-- I believe that the connectivity of regions and armies can and should be improved. Tell me... I haven't observed this personally, but does this world have the concept of signal towers? There probably should be. Recently, Master Quant told me about how he uses special clocks to control an unmanned aerial vehicle. Although this achievement is in itself, I thought at that moment that clocks don't care what they control, right? What if, on the other side, instead of an aircraft, there is some kind of dial with letters? Hmm, I won't overwhelm you too much, but it seems to me that by building many, many towers, and then connecting them all with invisible threads, it will be possible to transmit messages over any distance in an instant. And then nothing will catch us by surprise, because instead of sending messengers or pigeons, it will be enough for some duty officer to go to the tower, and then another duty officer to descend from his. I can't confidently say now whether this is necessary in the war against the undead, and also whether I am not overestimating the properties of precious stones, which, for me, who is not used to this, look like an obvious magic. Maybe it can't even be done at a reasonable cost. But if you say that you are interested, and that it makes sense... I will probably start developing it as soon as possible.

-- By the way, unmanned aerial vehicles themselves also look like a good addition, although I don't like to fight that way. But maybe it's worth calculating economically, and if it turns out that they are much cheaper than airships, then many of these kamikaze aircraft with bombs dropped at the right altitude would work well against airships. Hmm, maybe this is something that I should calculate myself in advance, before burdening you with my still unfounded thoughts.

-- Also, what do you think Senator Shen Tao is planning? Perhaps Her Highness Lady Naera has already described to you what I myself thought about the likely policy of this gentleman, but this was the opinion of a complete political dilettante, and what do you think?

and then I will accomplish what neither Akonia nor Arselia could – I will close Anush from the celestial beings, otherworldly gods, aliens, and other creatures that are unnatural to this world.

From the first princess, it was clear that high-flown reasoning was burdensome to her at the moment, which was only confirmed by her laconic answers.

— At the time of the attack on Hopelessness, my father was in the palace, of which nothing remained afterward. Based on this situation, as well as the fact that we never found him, we can draw the appropriate conclusions.

— Thirteen. One remained in Risserlande, and Sonata Reim, her students, and other assistants are currently searching for it. The other belongs to Monogat, the main lich of Nephiria. I have no doubt that sooner or later both will be in my hands, and then I will accomplish what neither Akonia nor Arselia could — I will close Anush from the celestials, otherworldly gods, aliens, and other creatures that are unnatural to this world. This has been my mission and dream since childhood, and I have no intention of stopping halfway. After that... I probably won't live much longer, so I'll have to seriously think about an heir.

— This all sounds very interesting and useful, Erephir, but at the moment I have absolutely no idea how this will work and what time and financial costs are involved.

— I think he wants to separate Mindjin from Welfern and declare himself its monarch, — Naria shrugged indifferently, — he has enough support in this region to do so if the central government weakens sufficiently. Given the current political situation, especially after what happened with Kridear, I think that after the war with Nephiria, if... when we win, that is exactly what will happen. In this case, I will have to choose between drowning the empire's subjects in the blood of a civil war or allowing all the dissatisfied to go their own way. Even if my ancestors curse me, I am inclined to the second option.

Somewhere in Erephir's mind, the idea lingered that a third party might have influenced the monarch's fate, and the princess knew this, which is why the wording is so careful.

- The condition of Lady Naera and her servants... I would also like to know. I have a small gift for your sister, if she is willing to accept it at the moment. If not... We will have to wait. I would like to give you something as well, but... I'm not sure you want to accept anything right now.
