-- You underestimate yourself. It would be an honor for me to learn the art of combat from you.

- Well... I'd be happy to teach you what I know, but you should be aware that this kind of training takes a lot of time, and you won't be able to master it in just a few days. We'll need at least a month for this.

"Yes, that makes sense, of course. I was starting to forget about the upcoming expedition with all this... But isn't it more important to take care of my honor now? I can't allow one of my family heirlooms to be sold at a market, and another to hang on someone's wall for the rest of its life! But I probably can't let my friends down either."
-- All of this is complicated... I think we should get started now. And then... Maybe I'll have to leave. But if I return alive from the expedition, I will definitely find you again. If you want me to, of course.

- What kind of expedition is this? - the girl asked. - Where are you headed?

-- The expedition is organized by Vincent Agares. He wants to go north. It seems he was talking about Fortress and possibly even further north.

- I never thought someone like you would associate with pirates, - the duelist wondered. - But if that's what your heart desires, I can offer you my help and share this path with you, while also teaching you my art.

– I didn’t reach out on my own; you could say that fate brought us together… – Agnet replied, initially not understanding the last words. – Wait… do you also want to participate in the expedition? That would be… – she wanted to say “wonderful,” but stopped. – But it would be selfish of me to drag you into this voyage against your will. I would be incredibly happy, but you don’t owe me anything…

- I owe you my life, - the girl insisted.

– That’s not true, believe me. I did what anyone in my position would have done.

- Nevertheless, less than half of the losers managed to survive after their encounters with their opponents.

– No, I cannot agree with you on this matter, – replied Agnet. – But still... It would be a great honor for me to learn from you, if you are willing to teach me. And a great joy, – she added.

- In that case, please tell me about the details of this expedition.

Agnet smiled gently and began to recount what she knew. However, her information wasn't exactly comprehensive. Still, she mentioned the previous expedition, which provided a basis for making assumptions about what they would face this time. She also spoke about Laust: "I didn't have to deal with him personally; I never saw him, only a portrait on a 'Wanted' poster. However, all my comrades from the previous expedition unanimously claimed that he was responsible for almost all our troubles. It's amusing. I saw our trouble in something else..."
When she finished, she wanted to know more about Anastasia, although she didn't say it. But in her heart, she was waiting for some kind of reciprocal story.

- What an interesting story. I never would have thought that someone would risk venturing so far into the Wild Lands and return safely. Even during wartime, I didn't encounter such horrors as you described.

– War? Have you been in a war? – Agnet asked.
