Erefir failed to improve her equipment, but working at the forge helped her realize many things related to her craft.
Erefir +7, awareness

-- Whew! -- After much work, the girl whispered a heartfelt thank you to Grevan and, tired, went on her way, saying goodbye to her fellow craftsman.
By chance (absolutely by chance), as she passed by Halgard's forge, she became interested and went inside. She walked past the stands with armor and weapons and felt how much more she had to grow... Her gaze stopped on a belt.
-- And what is this belt for? -- she asked.

The ice statue shatters into pieces, accompanied by a very loud and sharp sound.

Can I loot these pieces during the same turn? I haven't moved yet, but I still have movement points because of the "Quick Mind" skill.

Hint: you don't need to loot anything. If the guards gather, they'll open the door, you'll kill them, and you'll leave. But restore your mana. If they don't gather, you'll have time to loot.

Ah, I could have already gone out and had something to eat.

Yes, that's understandable. I specifically used a cheaper spell so that I could regenerate the spent mana in one turn. But if I have movement points left, why not use them? Besides, it's more reasonable to wait for the guard.
Actually, judging by his hits, it wasn't necessary to freeze him at all, but just to attack him directly.

Revan will, in any case, force you to spend at least one action on searching.

Is it a direct action? Can the remaining turn not be used?
Then, for the moves from the first turn, I move to the upper right corner of the camera.
Additional turn: mana regeneration.

After the events that transpired, all exits from the city were closed, and only those with special permission were allowed to leave its majestic walls. Naturally, it was relatively easy for those involved in any business to obtain such a permit, but travelers found it very difficult.
22 days later, on the central square of Covellia
“As you are all well aware, until today, Ilianar has always been open to representatives of all faiths,” Lutros began after Tadiel’s long and tedious speech had concluded. “Even followers of our enemies' teachings have been treated equally with other residents and guests of our country. But how did they repay us for this hospitality?” The Grandmaster spread his hands, and his voice grew even harsher and louder. “With a vile backstab, a slap in the face! Many of you were unhappy that the Council allowed the third legion, the ‘Enlightened,’ to become part of the Ilianar army. And you were right to be dissatisfied. Darius, their commander-in-chief, returned from Teios and proved himself to be a competent commander and, more importantly, a loyal man to the Republic. But who would have thought he would turn out to be an infiltrator? A liar? A traitor? He revealed his true colors when the council arrested Ea, a Namhani from Teios. Tartarus Ghostdrain, a hero of our country who managed to defeat and capture this murderer, did not trust the 'Enlightened,' so he took the initiative to visit Fort Auche, which was then under Darius' command. Tartarus decided to personally ensure that the 'demon queen' could not escape from her cell, and he did not leave Fort Auche day or night. He slept there, and it was there that he died when Darius treacherously killed him in his sleep. By doing so, he allowed Ea to escape, and now she has disappeared. But fortunately, the traitor was identified and killed in a one-on-one battle by one of the warriors of the 'Harbingers of Death' legion. Let us greet this hero: Nugl, the man who avenged the death of his mentor and brought the traitor to justice!

“Thank you, Grandmaster Lutros,” the residents of Covellia cheered. “Thank you, esteemed citizens. The death of Tartarus Ghostdrain, a hero of our country and the greatest warrior in the history of Erathia, grieves me deeply, but now is not the time for mourning; we must show our iron will, the will of Ilianar, invincible, free, and honest! We will withstand the threat from the South and surely defeat these barbarians. Be sure of it!”
“O-o-o,” roared the crowd, “Nugl! Nugl! Nugl!”
“In addition, Nugl,” Tadiel said this time, “allow me to offer you the position of commander-in-chief of the ‘Harbingers of Death.’ I think you are more than worthy of it.”
“Thank you, Marshal Tadiel, but I must decline.”
“May I ask why?”
“I believe that the next head of the 'Harbingers' should be the daughter of the previous leader: Marisa Ghostdrain.”
“If this is the recommendation of our candidate and such a worthy choice, I have nothing to object to. So be it.”
“Thank you.” Having finished speaking, Nugl left the "stage," and then Raimar, the chief guard, appeared.
“Important announcement: starting today, the ‘Enlightened’ legion will be disbanded, and all followers of Elulu-Suen’s teachings will be arrested. In addition, there are currently very dangerous criminals in the city, so please report them to any member of the guard if you can find out anything about their whereabouts. And besides that, if you feel up to it, you can try to capture them yourself! You will receive a pleasant bonus for doing so. More detailed information can be found in the notices posted on the streets of the city.”

“Ah yes, almost forgot: we also had to shut down ‘The Enigma’ because we are convinced that the goods sold in this store could be of great service to foreign spies.”
“Thank you, Raimar,” Tadiel said as he watched the chief guard leave, then continued. “Rank updates:
I ‘Insignia of Ilianar’
II ‘Tirezit’
III ‘Sorcerers of Ilianar’
IV ‘Harbingers of Death’
V ‘Ilianar Dragon’
VI ‘Guardians of the Republic’”

Tantreddu vouched for Tirza, so the guards will not search for her, but with the caveat that everyone believes she has rejected the teachings of Elulu-Suen. Meltaret is wanted. Nuesh is wanted. Nothing is known about Adilika. Rumke's fate is unknown until the end of the battle.

He spent the night there, and died there as well, when Darius treacherously killed him in his sleep.

Hmm, oh, is that possible?! The second question is – does he need sleep? That's quite something!
And one more thing: I don't trust Nugl.

Going to get some food...

The representative of "Gifts of Arcadia" turned out to be a plump, mustached man dressed in an expensive coat.
- Ah, Mirabella Ludenberg, my dear, so much has happened in the city, I'm glad you're okay! - Due to recent events, Mirabella had to postpone her tour of key locations. - Are you preparing for swimming?

Well, and Shushuk finally made it to the city, along with Rio and Sartre.

Wanted: Dead or Alive: Kir Trentalwind

Lil.

No, Tartarus is definitely not dead. I've been living in Rashinlar for a while now, and I don't believe everything I see on TV.

Well, Shushuk finally made it to the city, along with Rio and Sarta.

Are they going to follow me around all the time now?

- I'll go to Halgar's forge and find out what kind of sword this is, - Shushuk said to Rio. - Wait for me in the Grove, maybe someone from our group survived and returned.
