Posts from ☀️ Arselia and Akonia

- I think Sanex really needs your help and support right now, in everything. I understand that it's not really my business, and I'm interfering in their relationship, but still... Take care of her. She seemed very unhappy to me. I don't know what happened to her, and I'm not sure I should know. But I think you're the one who can help her... Just like me and Beata helped each other.

Here, Guyon notices a cat.

—What a beautiful creature! Where did he come from? —he says, trying to pet the animal.

—Oh, —Guyon instinctively put his finger in his mouth. —And you have a temper, I see.
He no longer tries to cuddle the cat.

It wasn't so much the final result, although it was charming and wonderful, but rather the very process of Klin's thinking that deeply impressed his humble assistant. What imagination! What attention to detail! How pure and blessed must be the thoughts of a person whose heart is capable of such things? Perhaps these gifts will not be as exquisite and luxurious as others; perhaps their recipients will not appreciate them as highly, but Saneksa Rimm was convinced that they would become the most valuable among the numerous offerings to the imperial family.
- I think... I think this is ve-ery, ve-ery good! - Unable to contain the joyful tremor that overwhelmed her, the woman burst into tears. - It's wonderful, Klin!

—So, right away, you mean she was "very unhappy"?... —the words stung Kлин deeply. —And you are very perceptive, Guyon. —With a heavy sigh, he released particles of his slightly darkened soul and sat down. —It was foolish to expect significant improvements in such a short time, but still...

—What happened? —He looked intently at his comrade for a moment, then stared at the floor. —I don't remember what you and Beata told us from your past — too many pages of the topic have passed, and it's not my business either, but... For some reason, you seem to me to be in some way similar to Saneksa, who went through a tragic experience. Sorry if that sounds wrong.

At this point, the mountaineer's consciousness falls silent for a moment, but not his tongue:
—You know, Guyon, what's the worst thing? That her "misfortune" is entirely my fault. I'm not looking for pity by pouring out unnecessary negativity on you, or embellishing things that were beyond my control. It was entirely my decision, — you may have heard the saying: "a person is less important than completing the task"? That's the whole story, since today is a day of revelations. And my subsequent curse, I think, is just divine punishment, but it's too little, pitifully little.

Having regained control of his mind, he gets up and pats his comrade on the shoulder:
—But you're right about you and Beata: looking at your happiness, I feel the greatest inspiration in life. That I too will be able to achieve the same worthy ending for us with Saneksa. Thank you... both of you. And... Be happy.

—Khmm, sorry for burdening you on a holiday, I'm a bit too talkative today after my resurrection. Well, that's all between us guys, as they say.

—Oh, please, call Sir Sirrion from the retinue of Count Credeare! —he introduced his pet with a solemn air. —By the way, the name is not just a play on words... Where did you get him? Creon from the residential park gave him to me. He says he ended up in the hospital because of something, and then somehow unexpectedly recovered. —He shrugs. —He had two more kittens left when we left, so if you've recovered from your previous loss, then...

—Well, why did you offend your friend? —he looked reproachfully at the all-understanding animal. —Such actions do not deserve elite cat food for 500 rem.

- I hope this resemblance isn't too much... I told you about Alaria and Erefir, and I think I'll mention it to you too, since you heard what Shen said - before meeting Beata, I spent a year and a half in Lower Lunaria on... not entirely voluntary terms, - he said the last phrase quickly, looking away. - And I wouldn't wish that on anyone. And if something similar happened to Sanex... Gods, she was just lucky that this is all over. She... is very strong, if she survived this and is recovering. Healing takes a lot of time and patience, but I think she'll manage with your support.

Guion sighed.
- I don't think you deliberately put her in danger; you don't seem like that kind of person to me. You had priorities, and, unfortunately, sometimes you can't go against them, I think she understands that too. Fortunately, you both were lucky. The main thing is that she is safe now, and you are taking care of her, which means you have a chance to atone for your guilt, which... is probably not that great. I think you suffered enough as undead, and since Sanex accepted you after your choice, you shouldn't blame yourself even more. Shit happens; you need to accept the consequences, learn from them, and move on. All of this is in the past, and ahead is the restoration of your homeland and... happily ever after, - he smiled and winked.

- Thank you. We will try. And we wish you happiness too. You will definitely achieve the same as we have.

- Oh, we even know why he ended up in the hospital and why he recovered, - Guion nodded mysteriously. - Or rather, because of whom... He ended up in the hospital because of an accident at the construction site of our circus, and he recovered thanks to Beata. And regarding the cat... I think we need to talk to her about that. We were thinking of getting a new cat, but we were very saddened by the loss of Misterius.

- Undoubtedly. Thank you for this opportunity. - He bows his head. - And let me say that the book about the spouses serves as a wonderful addition to the main series. In my humble opinion, fans of this series who didn't have access to it missed out on a lot.

- But why did you offend your friend? - he looked reproachfully at the all-understanding creature. - Such actions don't deserve elite cat food for 500 rem.

- Arigato, Matthias-kun. Like any person, I have moments of doubt, so such kind words help me stay on track. If you want, we can arrange something, although I am still far from Sonata and our friends. Hmm, and regarding the rules - do people just fight in their epics? And what about items, are they allowed?

- Really? Well, I'm glad. I also think we did a great job. - he hugged his wife and soothingly stroked her head. - Of course, with more time, we could have worked on the details more carefully, but... We did a great job! Now we can take a little break, and then we'll go to the pier to present...

- I'm very pleased to hear that. If it's not a secret, which of the consorts deserved your greatest interest? )

"This statistic will definitely be useful."

- Mairin. I found it wonderful how the king and queen complemented each other in matters of state and beyond, as if darkness and light – the masculine and feminine principles – had achieved perfect harmony.

Kiv.

-- I chose based on a slightly different principle and settled on Queen Lorence, as I am touched by such tragedy, but yes, your choice is good. After all, King Arual, together with Queen Meiryn, truly became symbols of prosperity for the entire people, including spiritual prosperity...

- Clear. Okay, I'll be here by eight or earlier. Or we will be, - he looks at the "entourage".

- Tragic?... - The guy was surprised but didn't continue his thought. - Yes, I hope my comrades won't miss this opportunity and will familiarize themselves with this valuable material.

... And he arrives there.

The first stones of the foundation and a certain enlightened lady standing among them. It seems she is in place. It was unusual, of course, to see how much otherworldly influence has permeated Margel, to the point that even in the very Center, there will be a building dedicated to those very techniques...

-- Hello, -- a bow. -- Are you the teacher my friends told me about?
