tell me what you look like, and I'll make a joke about it

-- But is there a way to destroy that unholy creature and still save those unfortunate souls?

- They will protect this creature until it breathes its last and even longer than that. I'm afraid that's impossible without the intervention of an entire order.

say something that sounds like your own and say it jokingly

What if the city explodes because of it?

it's not scary. the main thing is that you don't turn into something like that yourself.

– But we can’t just leave everything as it is. We can’t wait for help to arrive. What should we do then, Father?

- I won't refuse, - replied Larte and sat down in the armchair.

Ringer offered his guest a glass of wine and refilled his own. - A long time ago, about ten years ago to be more precise, one of my seafaring acquaintances told me about these islands. He was the captain of a small ship and made a living by sailing from Illiniare to their Altaian colony. As you can imagine, many goods that were abundant in Illiniare itself were in high demand in the colony. So he lived for years, sailing back and forth, making only a modest profit due to the costs of supplies and crew wages. That is, he could live on it and slowly increase his capital, but nothing more. But one day, the tides changed, and events began to unfold somewhat differently. His ship returned half-empty. From what I learned, the captain was killed by his own crew, the hold was empty, and many of the crew members were dead. But the main thing is not this, but the fact that after this event, the survivors began to live comfortably. An obvious picture emerges. Somewhere on these islands, they found something valuable, and since there is nothing about this in the records of the Altaian colony, they smuggled it out so that the authorities would not find out. Do you have any ideas about what it could be?

Vaaon wanted to accept one of the invitations, but decided not to rush and asked the priestess what the statuette was. - Is this some kind of relic?

- One of the symbols of our faith. - The priestess approached the pedestal and gently wrapped her arms around the sculpture. - A unique gift received from the inhabitants of the city where the cult of Ururu originated.

- Unfortunately, no order is authorized to act on the territory of Illiniare without the permission of the local authorities, and by the time we wait for help from the locals, there will be even more victims. The only thing we can do is to protect the souls of the unfortunate from further suffering.

- What an interesting faith you have. I would like to learn more about it. Perhaps you could personally share the details with me?

-- It's a pity that these once righteous people cannot be saved, but evil must be destroyed at any cost. I am heading to the Temple; pray for me.
Ignatius set off for the church.

- You have a very interesting faith. I would like to learn more about it. Perhaps you could personally enlighten me?

The priestess shed the few garments she was wearing, revealing her ample bosom and alluring curves to Va'on.
- A religious ritual will tell you everything better than any words.

It's funny how these two "storylines" intertwine. One post features scenes from the den of lust, and the next features the righteous quest of the paladins.
The rest will be tomorrow. Let's hope you don't get chopped into pieces/turned into new puppets.

The priestess shed the few garments she was wearing, revealing her ample breasts and alluring curves to Va'aon.
- A religious ritual will tell you everything better than any words.

- I like this city! - said Va'aon, and began to perform the ritual.
Shsurkha, meanwhile, found herself another companion to her liking.

- You don't need to worry about that; we are much more polite than most of our kin, - said Sith'Al, casting a stern glance at Nimrinil, - and we are even willing to answer your questions about our techniques, if you still have any. And in return, you could share your experience.

- Ah, I would offer you to join us and taste the fruit of knowledge, but alas, this place is not for the likes of you... - The priestess smiled compassionately.

-Boo! What a boring city! You can't do anything here! - Sitri pouted and crossed her arms - It's all so silly. Why gather in a special place for such a simple and natural thing? At home, we do it wherever we please.
Deciding that there was no point in communicating with these puritans, Sitri went to see the sage outside the city.

“I don’t understand what rudeness our kin are displaying,” Nimrinil said, surprised. “An exchange would be interesting. Although I don’t have many abilities, Sith’Al knows more.”

Ryu got up and walked over to a pile of belongings in one of the corners of the room. There, he picked up a small box, returned, placed it next to Antaer, and opened it slightly. Inside was a beautiful, dark red gemstone. - Keep it with you when you prepare to enter the world of dreams.

-Okay. - Antaer nodded, not fully understanding what world of dreams was being referred to. Probably some kind of ritual.

The figurine didn't answer; instead, its new acquaintance spoke to it again, - Oh, what is that you have? - she asked, staring at the artificial cat.

- Ahh! - Ji Ling almost fell to the ground, startled. - Who are you?! Don't scare us like that!
Looking around, the sorceress straightened up.
- Is there anything to drink?
