Blood to the blood god! Skulls for the throne of skulls! Or...

“I’ve saved myself the trouble of carrying an extra pair of eyes around,” Ottar replied in a satisfied tone. “Here’s that book.”

The bloodsucker waved the volume. It technically had a title, but... it was more like a forgotten inscription. Something about the void.

He's almost succeeding, but an unexpected obstacle is in the way.

As long as it doesn't show any signs of aggression, or any signs of life, for that matter.
What a vile, insignificant creature. It belongs in the void. The entity considers whether it can fly around the obstacle and continue on its way.

Either go forward, or go back, or go to the disgusting little man in front of the exit, or go back into the chaos and look for another way out.

-- So, it's just me left, -- Raul smiles. -- Well, I doubt there's anything in my life that would deter me from an adventure, something with a probability of more than one half that would lead to death in the abyss... You can add me to the list, then.
- Excellent. A healer is always useful in such matters... And defense too. We wouldn't have made it through that basement without it. I took it for myself, by the way. Along with the witch's house. It will be useful as some kind of storage...
Count Orlov
-- If you go, I'll be the only Fire Mage here... -- Arno pondered. -- Maybe if I send a letter home, they'll send someone else, but that won't be quick. Very not quick.
- The expedition starts on April 1st, so there's time to "train" some Fire Mages right here. - Voldemar chuckled.
- Although, I was planning to practice with the constable. Otherwise, I'm a terrible warrior...
Count Orlov
-- I've already spent more time here than I planned, -- Gratin grumbles.
- I didn't plan to "sort things out" with abominations in the basements either... But that's how it turned out... By the way, the regent and the marshal said that one of them is walking around the city. Like she's "recruited." "Working for us," they say... She even has a name... Lady Tifa, I think... I almost fainted when I heard that... She'll probably even go on the expedition...

I didn't quite understand the difference between "forward" and "exit"... But basically, if it's possible to move towards the light while avoiding the person, then do that; if not, move towards the person.

After Voldemar's words, Arno requested a punitive squad from the Holy Inquisition in his homeland to burn this heretical city to the ground. smile28
They don't even know about the cannibalistic bloodsucker yet...smile04

The light reveals the little man, who unsheathes his sword and waves it fiercely, as if shooing away flies. Unlike the entity, he is completely blind – this could work to the advantage of the entity trying to escape.

Blood to the blood god! Skulls for the skull throne! Oh, wait...

– I've saved myself the trouble of dragging an extra pair of eyes around, – Ottar replied in a satisfied tone. – Here's that book.

The Bloodletter waved the tome. The book did have a title, but... it's been forgotten. Something about the void.
-- I won't waste time on writings other than textbooks, don't even hope. I'll sell it in a couple of days.

-- Come to think of it, we could even set up a second church there. So that the Solar and Fire factions don't have to cram into one house.

- The expedition starts on April 1st, so there's time to "craft" some Fire faction units right here. - Voldemar smirked.
- Although, I was planning to practice with the constable. I'm not much of a warrior...
-- I bet fifty silver coins that out of ten random people here, there won't be a single literate one. Want to bet?

-- Yeah, well... I haven't seen anything like that yet. And you already have experience – a couple of rounds and it's over, if anything.

-- Now that you mention it, we could even set up a second church. So that the Haven and Inferno factions don't have to cram into one building.
- First, let's get the first one up and running... And get rid of the "emptiness" in the heads of the local townsfolk...
Count Orlov
-- I bet fifty silver coins that out of ten random people here, not a single one will be literate. Want to make a bet?
- No, no, no... I believe you... Indeed, finding a literate person outside the Academy is not easy...

- So, is there anything I can help with? I don't have anything to do today anyway. The city is empty, uh... that is, the streets are practically empty, everyone is in the "emptiness" church.

The dim light reveals a small figure brandishing a sword, fiercely waving it as if swatting away flies. Unlike the entity, it is completely blind – this could work in favor of the entity trying to escape.

If possible, it will try to sneak past the blind figure towards the light. If not, it will engage in its final battle with its non-self.

You're dreaming! He practically bled to get that book!

– No, Master, the book is mine, – Ottar smirked. – I'll sell it too, of course. What's the point of all this empty writing anyway? Well... shall we get started?

Ottar didn't really expect to recoup the full cost of the book, but it would be nice.

If there's a chance to sneak past the blind man and reach the light, he'll try. If not, he'll engage in his final battle with his other self.
Hargen is heading towards the exit.
Hargen attacks.
Miss.
Miss.

It will take 2 more turns to break through.

He's dreaming! He obtained this book at the cost of blood!

– No, master, the book is mine, – Ottar smirked. – I'll sell it too, of course. What's the point of these empty writings? Well... shall we begin?

Ottar didn't really hope to recover the full cost of the book, but it would be nice.
-- Who am I to stop you from wasting your time selling it.
By eight in the evening, Ottar has fully learned:

- So, do you need any help? I don't have anything to do today anyway. The city is empty, uh... that is, the streets are practically empty, everyone is in the Void Church.
-- It would be good to bring in some furniture, at least benches for the parishioners, but today no one is selling anything, so... It's as if everyone has nothing to do today.

- Well, I could read one of your books then. Since there's nothing else to do...

-- Choose one. The fiery one is more interesting, and I think you'll finish the one about gossip by evening.
