The cultists continued to follow their powerful strategy and fully utilized the short legs of Scufinson to their advantage. However, their cross-eyed vision greatly hindered them.

After some thought, it became clear that only one task was suitable for Sho-Ni: the last one. However, she was out of action points... perhaps it was time to eat and rest. Right here, in this desolate place. Risky, of course, but there was no other choice.
Meanwhile, in East Aldryk:
The captain shrugged, divided the coins among his knights, kept the book for himself, and Syryn finally put on the cloak. Which didn't make her particularly happy, as this outfit was even more revealing than the previous one.
Soon after, Saki and company reached the central camp of the Brown Banner. And at the entrance, they were met by an elite squad led by a very imposing, burly fellow. The sword was to greet him first, but it was clear that his companions were afraid of this great warrior in a horned helmet and with a huge sword.

- After me? Why not "before," if it's not that dangerous? - Dervos squints suspiciously. - Some kind of experiments. And conduct them not on your people, but here. You understand how suspicious it sounds. In our world, you need to be careful - today you reach into an incomprehensible box, and the next second it explodes or turns you into a monster. And I'm still struggling to determine what your benefit is, sir.
- You have no reason not to trust me.
He used the power of the Dealer of the Unknown, which allows him to convince anyone of anything. Poor Dervos, unfortunately, could not resist this divine gift. And he couldn't even notice anything.
Meanwhile, in Portall:
The cultists are gradually becoming desperate, as they cannot harm the northern barbarian...
Cultist (180/180, 85/205) uses the spell "Slippery Ground" against the target Harold Skufinson. Success! Harold Skufinson loses all his movement points for the next turn.
Cultist (180/180, 85/205) uses the spell "Ice Arrow" against the target Harold Skufinson. Miss!
Harold Skufinson has nothing to do, so he skips his turn.
Cultist (180/180, 45/205) uses the spell "Ice Arrow" against the target Harold Skufinson. Hit! However, the spell is blocked by the target.
Cultist (180/180, 45/205) uses the spell "Slippery Ground" against the target Harold Skufinson. Failure!

. Right in this desolate place. Risky, of course, but there's no other choice.

Monsters, yes.
When resting outside of a base, there is a chance to not fully recover Action Points or to encounter an event.

Soon after, Saki and her companions reached the central camp of the Brown Banner. And right at the entrance, they were met by an elite squad led by an extremely imposing, burly fellow. The sword was to greet him first, but it was clear that her companions were afraid of this great warrior in a horned helmet and with a huge sword.
- Hello, I am Saki, the sword of Ekiranal. - Fortunately, the name of the goddess was still in her memory. - I need valuable information that, apparently, I should receive here.

Meanwhile, in the northwest of Celia-Mir:
Ni-Sho is sleeping soundly. While she sleeps, someone small, fluffy, purring, and with the gift of the Earth school steals Potion of Charm x1 and Powerful Cucumber x1 from her. This explains the essence of the mission to capture the shairan. However, for Sho-Ni, this creature is still elusive. And the little fox is still sleeping, regaining her action points. She will wake up later.
Meanwhile, in the central camp of the Brown Banner:
– And I am Osgold Ron, commander-in-chief of the Brown Banner, – the knight replied. His voice matched his appearance.
So, this is him. The rebel, hater of priestesses, and simply a detractor of the goddess Ceraaria. The one that Captain Remar and Sirin often mentioned.
– Little one, don't think that being a puppet in the eyes of the mistress elevates you above us. Remar-Remar, when did you become so cowardly? Are you afraid of a slave!
– Forgive me, Commander-in-Chief. It won't happen again, – Remar Vuln bowed his head.
– Well, there are indeed orders. Here, the merciful Ekkiaranal even deigned to tell the truth. But we will discuss this at the morning council. And for now, Remar, go to your squad's camp. The governor severely battered you. This has become a problem for the entire Brown Banner, but on the other hand, it warned us about the threat, – Osgold waved his hand.
– Yes, Commander-in-Chief. Follow me! – Captain Remar led Saki and Co. somewhere deeper into the camp.
And Osgold Ron himself remained standing at the gate. Apparently, he was waiting for someone else.
We will learn about the will of Treevos tomorrow.
It seems that the glorious occult days have come to an end. For one cultist was killed by Skufinson with a single blow, and the other ran out of energy.
Instead, the northerner moves one square to the right and brings down his heavy axe on the cultist's skull.
Ni-Sho is sleeping soundly. While she sleeps, someone small, fluffy, purring, and with the gift of the School of Earth steals Potion of Charm x1 and Power Cucumber x1 from her. This explains the essence of the quest to capture the Shairan. However, for Sho-Ni, this creature is still elusive. And the little fox is still sleeping, restoring her action points. She will wake up later.
