Їхіхіхіхіхіхіхіхіхіхіхі! I mean meow! (с)

Well, I'm still worthy, though not always. The chapter was agile, the main plot shifted, and if Dead God is on my side, the next chapter will finally resolve the plot, and the second one after that will close the Lazy arc.

I rolled a lot of dice, but some of them are spoilers, and some are incomprehensible without the previous one. I can only say that Срша rolled a hundred, a clean one, and then exactly five. Initially, the hero was going to kill him after questioning him, and everything was leading up to that, which is why I even added a section of the scene describing how the shorty conducts his business with those who disappoint him. So there would be no later tears over the innocently murdered half-man.

And yet he survived. Although it's also quite amusing because his faction of criminals, under the city government (like most of the criminal elements on the Ridge and in the Crown lands), suddenly rolled a 13 and lost their schemes. That's why they were purged so unceremoniously, and yes, they were purged quickly and without regard for the consequences, lest they get through to their patrons and they have time to ask questions.

And this way, what questions? They've already been executed, and rightfully so. Here's the evidence. What, interrogating the execution agents? Oh, come on, there's no reason not to trust a city administration employee. Come to your senses.

Another hundred, important and pure, was augmented to that purity by the Omak reserves, including Brinar's special street magic. This is about Ilya's fight with the Marauder, about its finale. Actually, he pulled off the fight with that asshole (I couldn't show it, but he had quite the personality; friendly fire in the heat of battle was just the tip of the iceberg of what the Marauder did from time to time). But the main character needed not just to kill and win, but to achieve resonance right now.

To dispel the eye of observation. Fortunately, Ephemerality, as an aspect, besides a host of benefits, greatly increases vulnerability to the Abyss. And the bracelet had to be removed.

Overall, he coped with it.

What else?

Now, an indirect answer has been given to what exactly happened to the original Ryuk, the bookworm and scheming man exiled to the Ridge in Lazy. It's also clear that we haven't seen Ryuk's true face yet. It was with that same relic that he helped the protagonist, pulling the skin off the Maniac and even managing to preserve a bit of that Maniac's talent for impersonating other people.

Yes, the effect is short-lived, and this crap won't last more than a couple of Cycles. It won't even last a decade, rapidly degrading. But the main massacre in the city will take at least three or four days, maybe less.

This is in response to the comment by the respected Plattark, who said that Magnus saw the main character's face. I practically screamed at that moment, but I didn't want to spoil it. Obviously, no one has seen Ilya's face yet, and perhaps they never will.

The city battle itself went quite smoothly, both for the main character and Justine, and for Magnus and Yozek, and even ++Elthea accomplished her task and didn't run away, despite her strong desire to do so. Hysteria was close, but the woman has managed to keep her composure for now.

So, some of the city's surveillance equipment is out of commission, the weather barriers are down again, and it's becoming increasingly clear that this isn't just a simple search for bandits. The time window is dwindling, for everyone at once, and the hero desperately needs the library—or rather, not the library, but the city archives, and the rather old records in it.

Why? There won't be any spoilers here.

What else, what else... I spent five points from the omaks pool to ensure that the main character wouldn't be caught in the middle of the toilet, hugging a naked man. I added the roll to 62, otherwise, with 57 things, it could have been too difficult.

Something like that, hot sushi to everyone, and may your ears be warm, ciao, and I'm off to rest, comments and PB tomorrow or on the weekend.
