bring into life what you like, but what is missing

I actually don't understand it either... People usually play games to distract themselves from what they don't like and to bring into their lives what they do like but are missing. Why do the opposite?A question with a catch ≖‿≖

of funny descriptions

Not everyone here has as much experience as you do...

– I apologize, but I came from Enlil. I don't have a place to stay here, but I heard that the guild might be able to help with that, – Kamistella reminded them of a potential service.

- Well, I don't know... I'm not ready for "the unknown and new sensations" yet. I need to think about it.
- And what are you doing here? Are you also interested in this "thing"? - asked Erika, nodding towards the "mysterious artifact".
- Or does this thing spark some interest in you in terms of your "experiments"? - she added.

"I didn't think I'd have to go through the capital. "How much time do I have left?"
The guy looks at his watch.
There's probably still an hour before departure, so I'm going to go look at the animals.

Having finished the letter, Insho sends it through the nearest post office and heads to the adventurers' guild. "Big and strong mercenaries usually hang out in places like this..."

—I've read that in big cities, people are mostly impersonal and rarely pay attention to genuine, heartfelt relationships, unlike in smaller towns. I'll take your recommendation as an opportunity to test this hypothesis in practice. —leaning back in his chair, the young man took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes. —Thank you again for your hospitality, Sir Lanson. If you ever happen to be passing through the capital, feel free to visit... Perhaps by then, I will have mastered this culinary diary and be able to repay you for your kindness. Position or no position, we southerners always help each other out. —yawning and stretching, he realized that fatigue had loosened his tongue more than any drink and he regained his usual reserved demeanor. —...Then tomorrow morning, I'll go to the guild and see Mistress Nitra and try to pass the entrance tests with honor, if everything works out...

On her way to the guild, Insho crosses paths with a black knight woman she does not know.

- Insatiable harlot. - A lustful voice came from her lips. - What do you seek love for?

- Thank you, Lady Chief, we will never forget this, - he said, stepping back and beckoning his comrades to follow. After moving some distance and looking around, he quietly said to them while they were walking towards the administration building. - She has a keen ear. But how could she say that about our king? Maybe this is some kind of test for us? Or some behind-the-scenes games, because politics is a dirty business. But guys, something tells me that it's better to keep quiet about this issue; they clearly have their own atmosphere here. Let sleeping dogs lie, - this time, the remark was crowned with a generic, common piece of folk wisdom.

- What is this? - The Sorceress glances at the incomprehensible object. - No, I don't care about this nonsense. I was interested in the local vandal, but like you, she refused my offer.

- As they say, "a fisherman can spot another fisherman from afar," replied Insho to the stranger, and immediately introduced herself, - my name is Sparta, I am the chief priestess of Nanai in Sizki, feel free to visit our house of love when you have time.
After patting her companion on the butt, Sparta disappeared into the crowd.

Let's conduct an experiment on this instead, - Erika pointed to the mushroom, - for... 250 rem. What difference does it make to you? You'll test your own medicine anyway, and it will be much cheaper, and I'll feel a bit more at ease. What do you say?
