Tiberius decided to keep the travel journal for himself, and gave the sets to his comrades.
-If you think they will be useful to him in the afterlife, you can throw them in too, - he said to them.

Oh, I forgot
-I don't need anything that belongs to others, - Odd remarked, - and they don't belong to Lutiel either. The best solution would be to donate them to a monastery, but I don't care about his Gods.

With these words, the dwarf threw the money into the grave.

With these words, the warrior threw the money into the grave.

Before leaving, Gordian did the same.

Travelers had to spend the night on the ocean shore. Considering the presence of wild animals and poisonous snakes on the island, this night could easily be sleepless for some. But at least he could enjoy the cloudless starry sky and think about his life. At sunrise, three figures appeared in the distance, walking along the shore. They were an orc, a woman, and an old man. As they approached, Goodrin and Udjolina waved to them, but only the orc waved back. Lutiel, on the other hand, closed his eyes and pretended not to notice their approach. The orc approached the elf lying under the awning and kicked him. - Who's there? - Lutiel responded. - Kraznak, son of winter, proud offspring of the white people, great warrior, zealous follower of the truths... The elf stopped the orc's speech with a gesture. - You're late, my dears. - We know that ourselves, - said the woman. - It was I who held them back, - said the old man. - I'm not young enough for such journeys anymore. - You could have held them back for longer, Vincent. I didn't have time to rest, - said Lutiel, getting up from the ground. - Well, now that you're here, please go to the boats. You can get to know the new people later, if you want. - We won't want to, - said the woman and walked to the boat. - What's wrong with Lucia? Did you bore her with stories of your exploits? - Lutiel asked the orc. - Heh, she's always like that, - replied Kraznak. - Apparently, we don't work together often enough, otherwise I would know her better, - the elf remarked. Four days later, the Drunken Whale arrived in Limiskla - one of the largest port cities in southern Histia. Many Madianians note that this city is barbaric and wild. This is primarily due to the fact that the Histians living in the south are distinguished by their particular cruelty and wildness. This does not please even their fellow countrymen who live further north. Being more calm and civilized, they look down on the undisciplined and boisterous relatives who treat slaves too cruelly, drink a lot, and often kill each other over trifles. But despite this, you can quite calmly trade in anything in the city. Or almost anything. The city is conventionally divided into three parts. In the lower part of the city there is a harbor, markets, and entertainment venues. The poorest Histians from weak clans also live in the lower part. Many of them do not have slaves. More prosperous people live in the middle part of the city. The upper part is home to wealthy Madian merchants, famous warriors, and noble commanders from influential clans.

Lutiel himself put collars with the same seal on Udjolina and Goodrin. Lucia, however, waved him off and refused to put on the collar. - This will protect you from slave traders and just very rude Histians who want to get a slave for free. Secondly, do not even think about hitting or harming any of the slaves. These are not your slaves, and if their owner finds out what you have done, he will demand payment from you for damaging property. Thirdly, do not conflict with the locals in the lower city. Try not to interact with them at all. They only look for an excuse to provoke someone into a fight. And if your fists are itching, you can go to the arena and let off steam there. We sail in three days. That's all from me. Limiskla: Upper City: Dragon Clan. Atamus' Gardens. Middle City: Sextus-Magus' Goods. Krizaor's Goods. Lower City: The Grand Tavern "Palace of Tekura". Slave Market. Arena of Battles.

After collecting the money in advance ((8+4+1+?) x 2000), Tanasii headed to "Krizaor's Goods".

But I don't remember, did Tanasiy take them within the first 8 days?

The sheer number of diverse people that Lutiel had met never ceased to amaze Sarael; his kin was an extremely curious individual. He accepted the bracelet without any issues and found himself in Limiskla for the first time. A curious city.
The elf was curious to observe the slaves, how they were treated, and what they were like; in other words, he decided to take a look at the local selection of living goods, bringing his money along. Who knows, perhaps someone might catch his eye.

I didn't take any; I had enough as it was.

"Three days? What can you even do in this den of vipers for three days?" Gordian wondered to himself. "Alright, if everyone here is as crazy as they say, it's better not to go anywhere alone." Who's with me to go to the tavern for some fresh gossip?

Who's with me to go to the tavern for some fresh gossip?

I could go with you, but I need to visit the wizard first to look for various items.

I didn't take any, I had enough as it was.

So, take 20,000, and I'll figure out later how much everyone earned in total over the entire time.

"I don't like this town," Tiberius thought, looking at their three-day stop with some fear, disdain, and disgust. "It's almost scary to carry money with you. And to bring myself along too. And to put on these stupid bracelets. And these strange new companions. Apparently, that young man really brought good luck. At least, while he was alive, I didn't feel so awful." During the journey, Tiberius managed to study several chapters from the "Annals of the Empire," and also added new information to his own notes, not forgetting to include notes from Werner's diary. It would be a shame to let good things go to waste.

Today was filled with the most amazing events. As it turned out, we had to land on a small, uninhabited island and wait there for an entire night for Lutiel's friends. They turned out to be not the most friendly types. Well, never mind, we found people to impress. Although the old man seems to be the most normal of them.
I visited the settlement of the savages who live on these islands. They live in small groups of sixty to eighty people, and fishing is their main source of food. (a rough sketch of a savage is attached below). Agriculture is not developed at all, and they are unfamiliar with metals. They are very underdeveloped, timid, and armed with primitive weapons, such as spears. The leaders of the settlement are the oldest and wisest of the savages, which is quite typical for civilizations of this type. In addition, as it turned out, these islands are also visited by preachers of the Creator, who are actively engaged in converting the local population to their faith. It is also worth mentioning the histeos pirates, who engage in robbery and cruelly deal with the savages. Judging by all accounts, they are followers of the cult of Tekura, fierce and merciless creatures.
Fortunately for us, the latter turned out to be friends of Lutiel, so we were lucky. By a strange coincidence, Werner bravely entered into a battle with them and died. I am attaching brief notes from his diary below. I tried to hold a funeral, as is customary in his homeland. It was interesting to try myself in this role. I did not notice any signs of the Chalekhid civilization. All traces of the once majestic nation have been completely erased by time.

I borrowed medicine for seasickness from Sarael. I will need to repay the debt; I don't like owing anyone. So far, we have miraculously avoided any storms, and we have also avoided pirate attacks. Apparently, because all the cutthroats in these places are Lutiel's friends.

...th day. Arrived in Limiskla. The city looks extremely unsafe. I've heard a little about it, and it's always been bad. We put on the bracelets. I'll try to take a risk and take a walk around this place.

*** Nevertheless, Tiberius decided to go to collect his money and take a walk through the middle part of the city, for example, to "Sixtus the Magician's Goods," because the word "magician" inspired some confidence in him, and, based on his experience, the part of the city where more affluent people live is usually safer.

In short, take 20,000, and I'll figure out later how much everyone earned in total over the entire time.

Eight days until the Chalehids, x days until the island, one day on the island, and four days until the Histeos. Just give me at least 26. x)

I was asking about the island, which is seven days away from the Halekids.

Thanasius headed to "Krizaor's Goods."

Thanasius successfully reached the store. But, unfortunately, or perhaps fortunately, he didn't see Krizaor inside. As far as he could tell, his slave was handling the sales. And she was a slave with a lot of freedom.

- Hello, sir, - the elf greeted Thanasius in an excited tone. - You must be a traveler; I've never seen you here before...

Added 2 minutes later

Eight days until the Halechids, x days until the island, one day on the island, and four days until the Hysteos. Just give me 26, please. x)

Here are my notes.
8+3+7+1+4=46,000

Considering the presence of wild animals and poisonous snakes on the island.

Lies, there were only a boar, a leopard, and a monkey! :p

We'll set sail in three days. I'm all set.

By the way, I was just thinking about whether we would stay somewhere longer. And here it is.

Odd also collected what was due to him from Zalatov, but was still pondering where to go first.
I need a jeweler, but I don't know where he is yet. I hope I don't do anything dishonest if I look at your locations for now :D
