// In AA, the scroll was overpowered due to the starting artifacts; in this one, it's not as useful.

I'm busy today. As I understand it, options A (considering the tunnel) and B remain. It would be good to vote, otherwise I'll create a character in the evening and we'll jump into Margel.

For now, NNV; B seems to be the most "safe" option at the moment, but the consequences could be serious, and the locations themselves seem more challenging than they appear now; this option is difficult to predict.  From a purely plot perspective, I feel that B is the most appealing. However, the random drop rate for B as it is now is still too risky.

So, I'm leaning towards A. This will avoid the murky rings, and it might unlock some additional information and options. There will also be books and equipment there, and it fits well with my cleric's oaths. And if we don't get any help and the civilian mission fails with the restoration of transport, then in the worst case, if the GM doesn't add any additional complications, we can at least move to Sizki so we don't have to wander for three days without sleep through the cannibals. Overall, that's where we were headed before entering the current location, and for now, we're just taking a break.

Okay, let’s say we can come up with any backstory for him: a refugee or someone else… But where do we get the item from Margel?

+, I won't characterize this here as a deliberate trend, but you remember what my almost-but-not-quite-complete deviation from the arena plan led to...

hopefully, we'll be able to teleport to Sizzik so we don't have to trek for three days without sleep through the cannibal territory. Overall, that's where we were headed before entering the current dungeon, and for now, we're just taking a break.
Don't know. If getting ships is a no-go (and it seems like it might be), we'll have to head to Calcite, but there's not much point in going there without the "desert" skill. And the "desert" skill can only be bought from Sugare or in Muffigur.
Don't know what's happening in the capital right now. But there are two options: either from Sizzik to Sugare and to the tunnel; or to Muffigur and through Shingen and Enlil, again to the tunnel.
The second option is longer, but the first one carries the risk that we won't be able to leave the capital...

Red Shard of Consciousness: each path holds a delightful slaughter in store for us, but then... it might all end once and for all.
Prime Shard of Consciousness: poor Erish... he was left to guard the mansion...
Lustful Shard of Consciousness: yes, it didn't turn out well. We should have said goodbye to him with all due respect. Showed off our two hundred points of attractiveness in action, so to speak...
Shard of Consciousness 1: rinzeites are about beauty, not lust. Perhaps he wouldn't have appreciated such honors.
Lustful Shard of Consciousness: oh, come on, that's impossible! No one can resist our mistress. Even Akkad Babbar would give a lot for such a gem!
Red Shard of Consciousness: don't get on my nerves! It's time to decide in which direction to burn and cut the enemies of Asuguh! I suggest... all at once!
Shard of Consciousness 1: that feeling when all options are equally bad... Calcite is still like a forest with wild beasts, and Margel is the very heart of Lunamaria's possessions. Akonia's daughter will notice our bold appearance... and then the darkness in our souls.
Religious Shard of Consciousness: if the goddess desires our death... let us surrender to her body and soul! So be it!
Shard of Consciousness 2: suffering is inevitable. Accept it!
Black Shard of Consciousness: walking is not the best idea either. You might end up in the wrong place at the wrong time, and then not find anything... what to do when there is no right solution?
Shard of Consciousness 1: leave the difficult choice to others, for example.
Black Shard of Consciousness: ha-ha-ha, I like that!

– What if we find a companion not from Margel? – asked Camistella. – We have things from other parts of the world... for example, from one long-forgotten realm of the dead.

Then the Lunarian approached the suspicious erudite sorcerer.

– I love magical items! If it's not a secret, what other rings do you have? – the question sounded quite sincere. – It's not often you see ten powerful artifacts in one person's hands!

It was not worth remembering that most of the inhabitants of Anuzish could wear only two rings, amulets, or other similar ornaments.

– Oh, I'd have to write an entire encyclopedia to tell you about all their functions. – He scratches his head and shows a ring with a black onyx. – This one is probably the most interesting. With it, you can project events from the past within a certain radius and see what actually happened there. There's a lot of hassle involved, though.

Black Shard of Consciousness: there are so many ways in this world to prove our crimes...
Shard of Consciousness 1: this erudite is so powerful that I am already tormented by vague doubts... could he be a Phantom?!
Red Shard of Consciousness: PHANTOM! A-a-a-a!
Black Shard of Consciousness: a bold assumption... she could be anywhere and anyone.
Shard of Consciousness 1: and why did I even think about it... it's even scarier now than it was!
Original Shard of Consciousness: she is also a lady! She should have things to do besides tormenting us!
Shard of Consciousness 1: unless tormenting someone else...

– Your lineage has not wasted its time, – Camistella nodded thoughtfully. – Indeed, a rare and powerful artifact! And with such abilities, you are content with simple teaching?

It seems that, in the opinion of the Lunarian, anyone with power will inevitably begin to strive for power. In a way, this is logical.

- Ah-ha-ha, satisfied, are you? I'm not sure I agree with that assessment of my activities. I simply live by what interests me.

you can go straight to Sugar...
Theoretically, you can reach Sizki and Mufigur on foot. Although in the second case, you'll have to walk for a week and sleep right on the street, taking turns to "stand guard."
To Sugar, only teleportation is possible, no other way. You can use a calcite textbook, but I won't give mine away: for Erika, books are sacred! :D And of course, those rings... Who knows. If you're going to risk it, go straight to Margel if you have the opportunity. Although, who knows what's going on there...

For now, NNV; B seems like the "safest" option at the moment, but the consequences could be severe, and the locations themselves seem more challenging than they appear. It's a risky choice; from a purely narrative perspective, I feel that B is the more compelling option. However, relying on random drops for B as it is now is still too risky.

So, I'm leaning towards A. It will allow us to avoid the murky rings, and it might unlock some additional information and options. There will also be books and equipment there, and it aligns well with my cleric's oaths. And if we don't get any help and the civilian rescue mission fails with the transport recovery, then, as a last resort, if the GM doesn't throw in any additional curveballs, we can at least move to Siske to avoid trekking for three days without sleep through cannibal territory. Overall, that's where we were headed before entering the current location, and for now, we're just taking a breather.
I'm also for A. By the way... Do we even have any items from Shean?

I'm also leaning towards A. Let's have some fun along the way. Are we heading to Siske? Or to Mufigur after all? The first option is a chance for a ship (zero point zero chance) and a chance to get stuck (much higher than the first). The second option is a long journey, either into the tunnel or across the desert, who knows where...

I have a boot-cloak, a sound card, two bandages-ointments-antidotes, and 5 charges of a healing flask, which they forgot to finish writing in the middle of the battle 🤓
