What is this old map?

I'll leave you and sail away into the sunset.
Beatrice tried to remember the valuable information and where she could find it – perhaps she or her colleagues would need it. Not finding anything else unusual, she was about to leave, but at the last moment, she admired one of the ships – it seemed to carry passengers to Lapistia. She was interested in visiting that land, but she didn't have the means, and she didn't want to abandon her companions yet, despite their oddities.

With bait and explosives.

Ah, yes! We can try that.

So that's why we were recruiting non-player characters.

Tailina decided that Osama and Jalid's presence on the upcoming excursion was not necessary. Both seemed rather tedious to her, and since neither of them knew much about Ilthan, they wouldn't be able to contribute anything. That's what she thought, but she replied:
— In my opinion, if we split up, it will be a more effective way to gather the information we need.

While Sarnissa was looking at the warrior guild's assignments, an Iltanian she didn't recognize approached her. Pretending to be interested in the available work, he discreetly handed her a crumpled piece of paper while the others weren't looking.

Sarnissa took the piece of paper and, finding a suitable moment (either inside the building or after leaving it), unfolded it.

— In my opinion, if we split up, it will be a more effective way to gather the information we need.

— Well, then let’s do that.
After they split up, Osama said to Jalid (or to himself if Jalid had already left):
— Are we gathering information? I thought Dalia was going to give a cultural tour, — he shrugged. — I’d start by looking at the memorial, what do you say?

I'm going to sign up for the tournament.

:smile20:

Ah, why did Jennifer die in the nameless sands when she could have died in a tournament...

Because there is no God

- Why not, - replied Jalid, agreeing to his friend's suggestion.

Sarnissa took the piece of paper and, finding a convenient moment (either in the building or after leaving it), unfolded it.

If you have come to Ilthan with the intention of obtaining topaz, I must warn you – there is a third party involved; my previous subordinate in Ilthan was killed by a professional, and this clearly wasn't the work of Carvelos' supporters.

Also, having studied your squad’s abilities in more detail, allow me to share my thoughts and supplement Mr. Z.'s analysis.

Ruby – the attempt is pointless.
Diamond – good chances if everything is done quickly and reinforcements from the city are not waited for; if you undertake the extraction of this Stone of Immortality, I strongly recommend doing so no earlier than spring, as at the beginning of this season, the guests of the residence should leave Ertenia, and planning the operation will be much easier.
Amber – difficult, but not impossible; prepare for heavy losses.
Sapphire – high chances of successful completion if the woman can be eliminated cleanly; nevertheless, losses are inevitable.
Emerald – insufficient information, no comment.
Topaz – a wise choice for the first task; the easiest target. I recommend striking its owner on the day of the tournament final, after it ends, Carvelos will definitely visit the memorial to honor the memory of his ancestors and other warriors of Ilthan; at this time he is accompanied only by four of his closest associates.
Amethyst, aquamarine, and spinel – too many probabilities, no comment.
