Yeah I was missing reading these.

Awesome story as always, Arkipeller. My only concern is that RB interprets it to mean we're also sending a spy along with Amb. Cal. We don't have alphabet, though, so I guess that shouldn't be an issue.
Yep, post it.
We might need your services really soon. We will need a bit of propaganda. For sowing the seed of fear in our enemies hearts.
I wanted something mentioned about clouds gathering on the horizon, wind whispering evil words, kids coming closer to the camp fires, but our brave soldiers tightening their ranks and being not scared. Mention "advanced weapons" and "xbows" tooMight make all our foes think twice before attacking us.
Awesome!![]()
What do you guys think about a public display of gratitude to the teams that provided assistance to us in our war with the Spaniards? Or did you already have some ideas for our next story, Arki?
Well, Taj is up. Someone beloved died. We built mausoleum for it. But the hope rise from the ashes of our devastated soul as a phoenix.
It seems I never understood the full point of ceremonial burials. At least I often feel I lack something essential when they are preformed. Father Tobias were leading the great initiation ceremony, where lots of robed bodies were carried into a grand structure of marble.
Yossarian called it for the Taj Mahal, but basically it were just the spot where several remains of formal generals were buried, or at least that is my point of view. The more remarkable is the effectiveness of the priests and religious masons building the spires, covering walls in calligraphy and filling the insides with weird tapestry, urns and worse: the soon incoming dead bodies.
I feel father got a slightly weird taste of what a final resting place should look like. I really hope I will never see this amount of marble ever again!
On the other note. I kind of fancied to talk with the female Zulu border patrol the other day. We had a cup of sweetened tea and shared stories about cities we've been to and how the world was a good place to be. I actually don't think she knew who I was and took me for a regular worker.
