Posts from 🔥 Иказкан -> Тезот Auto-translation in progress

Osh Dale scrutinized everyone present with his purple eyes. "Oh! Disgusting little people and a huge Sylvan. What a nasty, vile sight... Alright, calm down, Osh. At least there aren't any stinky Furries with their fur and endless shedding. Look... look at that Sylvan. He might accidentally sit on you and crush you with his giant behind! Brr, a terrible death. The sharp-eyed man in the stupid hat looks like a madman. Next: fat as a Sylvan, but as vile as a human, probably ready to kill you for a piece of nutritious moss. The next one: just an ugly creature. Definitely got drunk on human booze and started a fight, as they love to do, got a torch in the face, and became even uglier than he was. Why are you all so repulsive, humans? The last one: hmm, not so bad for a human, but I still won't talk to him. I won't talk to anyone. Let one of them start first. Let's see who's the most talkative and annoying here. Although they're all annoying..."

On a very, very high tower, all sorts of different people gathered. And not just people. Something brought them all to this difficult peak, from which it is so easy to fall down, some goal. But not Rurek... he climbed to the infernal throne to train his legs. He saw others climbing and, with an impassive expression, joined the procession. Why not, if it's possible? It's not always easy to get the right to climb such a long and bizarre structure... That's how Rurek learned about the expedition. Oh, these people... and why can't they stay in the pleasant, warm, and kind Ikazkan? They are all rushing somewhere, restless little guys! The surface! What could be interesting there? Hmm... maybe some unfamiliar breeds from which new types of armor and weapons can be made. Or a cauldron. No, it's not worth it. Who is even here? The One herself, the mistress of the Dungeon. What an interesting encounter... I would like to touch her strong, powerful sword... A self-absorbed elf. At least someone decent among the people has joined the group. One ugly one, two ugly ones, a terrifying ugly one, and a slightly less ugly one, but still a human. Nothing new. Little guys as always! Sord is clearly out of place in such company. Maybe there are others, but Rurek is tired of looking at the details. "Why leave Ikazkan if you can stay in Ikazkan?" Rurek philosophically asked, either to himself or to Ona, whom he was looking at. "Ikazkan is our home. And the surface... who knows what's there? Foreign lands. Unknown monsters. Everyone who goes there will surely die in terrible agony." Rurek was young by Sord standards. And where there is youth, there is pessimism, a lack of interest in life, and a tendency to seclusion.

I already like Rurek.

Osh raised his gaze when he heard Sord's speech. "Oh, how clever we are! Just don't mistake me for a chair, you big-butt!"
Elm didn't reply to Sord, but continued to wait for the people to reveal themselves.

- I am beautiful, there is no denying that. But not everyone is allowed to touch me; only worthy hands may embrace me. - Sordu was answered not by Она, but by the extraordinarily perceptive Gekizo. - Once you find a material that doesn't bend, you will inevitably want to bend it. The unbreakable – you want to break. This is how human desire works, the desire to reach the surface.

"Hmm! He didn't say a word, but the sword understood everything. Can you read minds, sword? I knew you were 'special'. Just like all Ivilians. Some are chosen by the gods, and others... Oh, what am I saying? I wasn't born a human, and I'm grateful for that!"

Does he read minds with his sword? That's dangerous; one could have died after the first post.

"Hmm... What am I doing here? Why am I not seeking knowledge?" - Jingo thinks, looking around...

"Some kind of... what is this... a Grove? A bunch of people... Why are we gathered here? Surface! What is 'surface'? Old Tailo told me that our ancestors lived on some 'surface'... Oh, horror! I know nothing about 'surface'! I want to know about 'surface'! I want to know everything about 'surface'! Clues! Where can I find clues?"

For now, Jingo is looking around with his crazy(?) gaze...

Hmm, a talking sword of exquisite craftsmanship! That's... exciting...

Better not think about it for now, or you might get some very unwanted thoughts.

– Materials from the surface... – Rurek stroked his beard. – Sounds like a plan!

We need to observe the people. Maybe they'll let slip their plans for searching for this wondrous surface...

Jingo is currently looking around with his crazy(?) gaze...

There were many things in sight that could interest the owner of these eyes, but upon closer inspection, most of the items turned out to be quite ordinary. Here is a bed, wide, long, most likely soft, and very conducive to a comfortable sleep. Perhaps she sleeps here - no one thought to build a separate room away from the "throne room." Above the bed is a sword stand, a resting place for Hekizo's sword, no doubt. Nearby is a bedside table, a wardrobe, and a huge mirror - one in which even a sorcerer could see his reflection in its entirety. A little further away is a small round table - one could have soul-pleasing tea sessions at such a table. In another part of the room is a cabinet with dishes, some food items, and a barrel with some liquid. If you were to approach the edge of the hall and jump off, the chance of staying alive would be zero.

There were many things in sight that could interest the owner of these eyes, but upon closer inspection, most of the objects turned out to be quite ordinary. Here is a bed, wide, long, most likely soft, and very conducive to a comfortable sleep. Perhaps Óna sleeps here – no one thought to build a separate room away from the "throne room." Above the bed is a sword stand, undoubtedly for Hekizo's sword. Nearby are a nightstand, a wardrobe, and a huge mirror – one in which even a sorcerer could see his reflection in its entirety. A little further away is a small round table – you could have soul-pleasing tea sessions at such a table. In another part of the room is a cabinet with dishes, some food items, and a barrel with some liquid. If you were to approach the edge of the hall and jump off, the chance of survival would be zero.

"Clues? No, none of this is a clue..." thought Jingo, looking around. His gaze stopped on the sorcerer.

– Why leave Ikazkan if you can stay in Ikazkan? – Rurek asked philosophically, either to himself or to Óna, whom he was looking at. – Ikazkan is our home. And the surface... who knows what's there? Foreign lands. Unknown monsters.

"Yes, we don't know anything about the surface... STOP!!! We don't know anything about the surface! We don't know what's there... We don't know who's there... But... if we find the surface... we'll learn a lot! Thousands, millions of pieces of knowledge! Where is the surface??? We need to get to the surface urgently! Does anyone know where the surface is?"

– Materials from the surface... – Rurek stroked his beard. – Sounds like a plan!

"A plan? Do you already have a plan? Do you know something about the surface? Are there a lot of 'materials' there?" Jingo suddenly decided to ask the sorcerer.

Rurek looked at the frenzied little man with his wildly spinning eyes. Poor fellow. So young, and already driven mad. “Materials?” the lord pondered. “If there are materials in the dungeon, why wouldn’t they be on the surface? People build their homes from something up there.” Or maybe they don’t… perhaps everything died out on the surface long ago, and the refugees fled to Ikazkan?

Rurek looked at the wild little fellow with his eyes spinning wildly. Poor guy. So young, and already gone mad.

– Materials? – the sorcerer pondered. – If there are materials in the dungeon, why shouldn't they be on the surface? People build their homes from something there.

Or they don't... maybe everything died out on the surface long ago, and refugees came to Ikazkan?

The sorcerer's answer made Jingo pause for a moment. After all, he was used to working with "materials" of a slightly different nature...

Yes. Materials must exist. But to get to the "materials on the surface," you first need to find some "materials from the surface"...

- Ah yes... I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Jingo, a collector of knowledge. And what is your name?

Jingo is very similar to one of my characters. Just replace the word "knowledge" with "pods."

Jingo reminds me a lot of one of my characters. Just replace the word "knowledge" with the word "pods".

To each their own obsession...😏
