So, seven and a half, Revan.

Well, I don't know yet how the map will turn out.

How will Larte fare.

I sent Revnyu a private message explaining why I won’t be participating.

Well, that means there are six of us.

Not enough.

Well, maybe Medj can convince someone to play. Uran also occasionally checked the thread. Ment could try to invite Tox.

Alex might suddenly appear and create a zombie samurai with a demonic katana! Damn, now I want him to do that...

Oh yeah, we also have Wyss.

Weiss-Kiss.

My name is Hanelion Raymond. A silly name, you think? As if yours is any better! I would be wary of judging others, at least I don't read other people's diaries! Well, I do, but not while they are being written – that’s just too much!
So, what was I talking about... My homeland is Illinar. But at some point, I realized that I didn't belong there. Not because the country had changed... Yes, I preferred the kingdom to the republic, I won't deny it, but I ran away even before that. It was boring. In the Mage Guild, I could have found something to do, but my talents weren't appreciated there. So, I had to wander around the world...
Are you still here? Actually, I was appealing to your conscience; don't you understand hints? You know the saying: "Curiosity killed the cat"? That's about you! Now get out of here, stop snooping! And stop eavesdropping, or am I supposed to write my diary in silence?
Okay, I'm kidding. Whoever you are, you can read and listen; curiosity is a good thing. I also know this feeling; I experienced it when I decided to go to Teios during my travels and see what kind of strange, new place it was. And the magic of these Elulu-Sue creatures really appealed to me... Although, I personally revere Rosario. You might say – so what? What matters is that Elulu-Suen requires one to improve oneself, to become worthy, while Rosario advocates for all kinds of success. But no, you're wrong. Success isn't always self-improvement, and self-improvement isn't always success. Some idiot can pump up his muscles, learn various fighting styles, and become practically invincible... Then he gets drunk, falls into a snowdrift, and freezes to death. No, gentlemen, revering Rosario means achieving set goals. As for the means… well, the means can be anything. Including self-improvement.
Wow, are you still reading? I'm amazed by your perseverance. Though you have a long way to go before you reach my level. You wouldn't believe how many years I spent trying to figure out how the warriors of Elulu-Suen manage all those tricks! Especially reflecting spells. And do you know what? I still haven't figured it out. But in the process, I learned a lot about the very essence of magic, about how to properly and effectively control energy, about how life flows in people, and how this energy can be used... And I think that my research has only just begun; there is much more for me to discover. Although, the main thing for me is not knowledge; that won't be where my success lies. That’s all good, but ultimately, I crave something else: beauty, spectacle. To kill a great warrior, blow heads off like overripe watermelons, destroy cities if possible... And to die with equal splendor, but only when the time comes; otherwise, there will clearly be too little spectacle in my life. First, one must wander around, and then die. Or better yet, not die at all, if that would be more beautiful!
You, yes, you, because I feel that you are watching me, will become witnesses to this triumph! Or maybe you won't. Or maybe it won't be a triumph. But whatever happens, I will try to make sure that both you and the world… especially the world, because I don't know you and have never seen you, so why should I care about you? In short, I want to be remembered. So that someday they say, "Wow, Hanelion Raymond really made a splash!" Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha!

The Illinarian laughed calmly, as if he wasn't crazy at all, but continued diligently writing it down in his diary. Then he smiled, put the diary aside, and cast a disintegration spell on it, leaving no trace of the barely started book. "It's bad to snoop!" he said through his laughter and walked away.

how life flows in people and how this energy can be used...

People should be exploited while they are still alive.

It all depends on luck.

That's what I read first.
