Frozen in place, the young man feels a cold fear pierce him from head to toe: two red embers in the outline of a dark helmet are impossible to forget so quickly.
—S-sir T-Tann?..
"Hey, kid. Want a 1000-year-old beer?"
Camistella pondered. Did a bandit really attack the artist? And did she even exist... a strange Faieant person, to say the least.
– And what did she look like? A bird, you say... I know about mushrooms, but I haven't heard about birds, – the Lunarian exchanged glances with Kimchilla. – Could she be a Scryme by any chance?
Well, what if... no one canceled the basement with Scrymes in the artist's house.
He wakes up in the morning in the same place where he supposedly met his end, but fortunately, he is whole and unharmed, as if it had all been just a dream.
Asmidul gains +1 to intelligence and unlocks the next skill:

After this rather lengthy reading session, she went to get some sleep.

The Black Knight tilts his head in confusion for a moment before moving on to the next action – he tightly embraces Asmidul with his armored arms... breaking all his bones in the process. The remains of the young man lie near the door of his own home...
He wakes up in the morning in the same place where he supposedly met his end, but fortunately, he is whole and unharmed, as if it had all been just a dream.
Somehow regaining his breath, the young man reaches out with his hand to find his glasses. Carefully checking the frame, he is relieved to find that they are not damaged, and, putting them on his nose, he looks around. The apartment is deathly silent, only occasionally disturbed by the hum of city life outside the window. Getting to his feet, the student glances out the window, but sees only an ordinary day in the capital. Still not fully aware of the reality around him, he walks around his room, checks the door lock for signs of a break-in, and the floor for traces of heavy boots.
The Lunarian is heading to the Enlil administration to find out where she can take riding lessons.
Ushumgallu walks home, mentally preparing himself to grind away at tactical science again tomorrow.
- ... I confess, I've never been punched in the face, haha. And neither has my opponent, but even I understand that in war, as in a regular fight, the one who takes the initiative has the advantage!..
Ushumgallu unlocks the next skill.
Decisive Attack
If the character's squad initiates the battle, he and the allies under his command receive one additional turn outside the initiative order (requires 250 experience points to learn).
Carefully writing down all this new information in her guidebook, Ghenza nods:
- Thanks for the lesson, uh... - she checks her notes. - Sensei. I may not know everything in advance, but I absorb information like a sponge. So I'll make sure that I don't get my head chopped off for improper behavior, and this lecture won't be in vain. And thank you for your time, I hope I didn't bother you too much.
After Higa left the patient's room, he fell asleep again and only woke up a few hours later. The next time, when he was in a slightly more presentable state and of sound mind, Higa led both guys to the head of the organization's office.
- I name you Sunaro.
Following the head's words, Higa drew the following "symbols" on a large canvas:
砂狼
- Sand Wolf, - she explained their meaning, leaving no room for imagination. - And you, from today on, will be called Akimitsu.
And again, Higa repeated her actions, drawing the following:
明光
- Bright Light, - she explained to Girre, and then turned to both of them, - "during the day" wear your old names, "at night" - new ones.
- And what did it look like? A bird, you say... I know about mushrooms, but I haven't heard about birds, - the Lunarian exchanged glances with Kimchilla. - Was it a Scryme by any chance?
After this rather long reading, she went to get some sleep.
Getting to his feet, the student glances briefly through the window, but sees only an ordinary city day. Still not fully aware of the reality around him, he walks around his room, checks the door lock for signs of a break-in, and the floor for footprints of heavy boots.
The inspection of the dwelling was interrupted by an unexpected knock on the door.

- Well, it was all... purple, and it had three heads, and its tongue was like a snake's - forked at the end.

- You'd better go to the capital for that, - Insho had to deal with an employee in the Insho administration who was without a portrait and currently nameless, - they have a huge transportation station there, where they also teach horseback riding. Or you could find a teacher somewhere here, but that's not an easy task...
Lacking alternatives, Insho heads to the transportation station, waits for the stagecoach, and travels to Sizki.

"I've come back to finish what I started."
With that thought, he approaches the peephole.
—Who's there?
- My name is Himal, I'm from the city guard.
Is it a single room?
"Heh. I have a cooler badge - more stripes" - the sand wolf thinks, tilting his head. - "I wonder if the boss is watching us right now? What is he thinking about - that his legacy is being tarnished, or is he proud that his little ones have grown up? Although, most likely, he's just drinking and doesn't care."
He wanted to ask something, but remembering his previous experience, he waits to see if the new boss or his assistant will say anything else first.
With the elder's permission, Higa begins to draw and explain the names of the other senior members of the organization, as well as the name of the clan that led "Passionate Desire."
殺人刀
- Satsuninto, literally - a sword that kills people.
龍明
- Ryumei - dragon of light.
夕闇

絶命
- Zetsumei - the end of life.
眠安

Although Higa was not from the islands, her calligraphy was very beautiful and neat.
