- Good afternoon. I understand you – I will pass your request on to the management, but don't expect a quick response. I advise you to come back after the lectures, around four o'clock in the afternoon.

- Correct. Can you tell me more? About the event.

"But I won't treat you any worse, don't even doubt it," he said with conviction, breaking free from his philosophical reverie. "I wasn't raised that way."

"Tell me, do you miss the sea? Would you ever want to go sailing again? Maybe not as a captain, but as a passenger? Sorry if that sounds too straightforward, but I'm an emotionless undead, what can you expect..."

Realizing she has time, Beata rushes to Ideal to see Penelope, or Penny, as she called her exclusively behind her back and only in conversations with Guion – she found the contrast between the lighthearted nickname and the serious image amusing, but she definitely didn't want to find out how the owner of that image would react to such a nickname.

"It will be a circus performance in the port district. Acrobats, fire shows, magicians – everyone we can find. We want to somehow cheer up the city's residents and give them a positive boost after everything that has happened, just entertain people a little. And we definitely need musical accompaniment," he said, spreading his hands and smiling. "The mood of the audience depends on the musician, perhaps more than anything else, and at Melodia, they advised me to contact you when I asked where I could find a good musician. To be honest, our event budget is modest, but payment for your work is definitely included."

"There are all sorts of monsters there. And also stone people. And there are also mages and old men," he roughly outlines the scope of the work, but without delving into the context and background of the raid. "But we have a lot of people coming with us, so it's not a problem. We'll give them such a beating that they'll regret crawling out of the depths of Anush."

I think there should be someone older in this group who will hold your hand and shield you from things you're not ready for... That is, me.

- I must admit, Erefir, you have a very good understanding of art, - although Eogan's face still expressed the previous emotions of decay and hopelessness, he still found the emotional strength to voice praise, - as one would expect from a Knight. Allow me to present this to you as a sign of recognition and respect.

- Congratulations. - Kalina clapped her hands. - So, after listening to you, I decided how I will use these images. Chinchin's work should be redrawn in many copies and published on the cover of a children's booklet on the basics of Ikigai; we need to focus on education from an early age. Bazella's work... Hmm, what if we hire appropriate specialists and create a stained-glass window based on it, what do you think? In any case, it will be placed at the entrance. We will decorate the main hall with Eogan's work so that it reminds us of the tasks we face. I will hang Her Highness Princess Revania's creation in my chambers because... just because. We will create a separate room for the rest, a kind of museum.

- Tomorrow. But in this gear, it's not an option. You need to put on something more protective.

-- I don't think there's anything in your reasoning that... deserves respect, especially when compared to the effort of creation," the redhead said, slightly embarrassed. -- The real celebration should be in honor of you, artists, who have once again proven your abilities. Still, I am grateful to you, sir. Such praise is unexpected, but quite pleasant; the least I can do is accept it with dignity.

-- Let's imagine... Yes, you definitely have that creative streak, Kalina, as expected. I'm not really sure about combining a stained-glass window with a Temple in an oriental style; is that even done? How about a large and beautiful tapestry, huh? A stained-glass window is more colossal, a tapestry is more expected, but I think you'll figure it out. As for the rest, it sounds great.

She returns to the main room and tries to figure out what Astellia is doing now.

- In some kind of armor. Or a leather jacket.

- And how were you planning to fight harpies before? Were you going to jump around the rocks in your slippers?

- What do you mean... Who does it? But let's see, I need to assess things on-site. - He turns to Eogan and hands him the money. - This is for you and your students, thank you.
- Uh-huh... - Accepting the coins and lazily bowing, the artist departs.
