-- You can lose your life anywhere and for any reason, what’s so sad about that? It’s more important how you live and what you leave behind, not how you end your life. However, she did leave something truly significant, there is no doubt about that.

-- No, personal experience says otherwise. Moreover, our country is not a wasteland; any traveler who has talents to offer will not starve.

-- That is true, but in the context of personal happiness, only his self-perception matters, not the common good. The common good comes into the equation when we are looking for the ideal optimum for everyone between freedom and restrictions.

Typically, those who avoid fulfilling the reproductive instinct spend their lives on other things characteristic of irrational animals – eating more, having excessive fun, traveling aimlessly, and so on. A person without a child will never truly mature and will remain a child themselves, so you can't expect them to be of benefit to the rest of society. Even a broken life – which in itself is not necessarily a fact – is better than its complete absence.

- Stop,” the prisoner was grabbed by the hand. “Wasn’t that the question?… Iraola, don’t overthink it. If your time comes, it won’t be today. Instead, tell me this. The descent to the next floor is currently blocked, and that’s correct. The queen also has a hole in the floor – if she needs it, she’ll summon someone herself, and outsiders and the unworthy shouldn’t wander around where they shouldn’t. But do you and the others know of any additional passage besides these two? We need to determine if anyone unaccounted for could have wandered where they shouldn’t.

-- Well, I have to intervene in this thread and say: you criticize our female members for not striving enough for family life, which you consider a flaw, and then you argue that this is linked to another flaw, specifically one that is not characteristic of us. No, such a substitution of the subject is a dirty trick; you should argue either about statistical patterns or about specific individuals.

"If men were involved in pregnancy and childbirth equally with women, this guy would be singing a different tune" - Beata thought vengefully, but said nothing aloud, tired of arguing.

- Yes, that's true. It's even sadder to realize that after reaching thirty, starting a family will become increasingly difficult with each passing year, both for social and biological reasons, especially for women.

- That's good. Hmm... But once, the descent wasn't blocked, and the tentacles didn't emerge from the floor at her will. There was a passage not only to the next floor but even to the one after that – have you ever been there? But most importantly, do you know why and how this change happened? It is very important to understand one's own history – to know who and why one should be grateful. Answer not in a few words, but as thoroughly as you can. And this will be the final block of our... testing.

—I must admit, your arguments are quite sophisticated, Lord Shao. —the knight said respectfully to the spy, nodding. —To summarize the book about royal couples that we just studied, I can only wish that everyone would realize the importance of family and lineage, rather than indulging in self-deception for the sake of emotional solitude.

—You may not agree with me, but family is not always defined by blood, Lord Shao. Even if a person "missed the opportunity" or, simply, could never have children due to health problems, there is always the option of adoption. Sometimes, such families turn out to be stronger than blood relatives. In the Imperial Archive, until the recent tragedy, there was even a good example of this — the story of Gungnir von Breckenhorf and his adopted children.

—Well, maybe another opportunity will arise. As far as I understand, you will be here for a long time due to your duties.
