"Who are you going to?" a terrible roar came from the fortress.
The spearheads of arrows and arrows aimed at two travelers.
Li-Ban angrily rounded his eyes wanted to bark something evil ...
But Dara got ahead of him, laughing and holding up "Tamga Highlanders" high up in his hand - It was a gold tablet on it was written "The guest is always welcome - Mountain of Light".
The Highlanders immediately lowered their weapons and uttered a phrase that has been heard on many continents of the world for the past 17 centuries:
"Peace to you, Grace and Welfare!"
"Who are you? Where did you get tamga from? What are you looking for in our village?" there was a cry from the fort.
"Oh, you'd better go downstairs and shout from above at us, this is not in the traditions of the highlanders," Dara retorted.
"Wow, have you brought the East Barbarian to us?" said a mountaineer warrior going down into the mountains.
He was 2.5 meters high, stocky, with black hair with light gray hair, dark-skinned, with a tenacious gaze. Dressed in light steel chain mail, below the waist. With a thick leather belt, on which hung a sheath with a kizhal, without jewelry and a small sword of 1.5 gas.
Li-Ban was angry how these stinkers dare call him a barbarian! "He is the whole GENERAL! Great TAN empire! And this some ragged man speaks of him as a barbarian" !!!
"Don't shout, he specially provokes you to provocation," Dara reassured him. "He checks you, don't lose your face!"
"This is not a barbarian, this is a friend!" "And who we don't need to know, this is not the job, but the business of your elder Devzira or the main warrior of Arakesh! But there is no easy Magrura sentinel!" "Your name is Magrur the rude"? mocked Dara.
- "How dare you make fun of me? I decide who to enter the village and who to be killed!" angrily protested a little taken aback Magrur.
"So how? Do you mean you've already become the oldest of this village? As an Intereno and Devzira is aware of this? Or you don't have a great tamga, here they are, everyone in the golden city of Kedera will burst with laughter! Someone Magrur dared to go against the will of the merchant of Keder? Are you not afraid that in winter your village will be left without flour, without sugar, without medicine? " continued to laugh Dara.
"Are you afraid that they will send a detachment of 100,000 swords and boycott your valley, agree with neighboring mountain gorges and you will remain cut off from the steppe, pastures, friends, relatives?" I didn't let it go; I didn't restrain me from knowing where to hide my eyes from the shame of Magrour.
- "Enough, Enough! You completely embarrassed him, he did not know that he dared to offend the most vindictive and vengeful merchant of the whole kingdom of the CAO!" noticed the chief warrior of the village of Arakesh smiling like a copper basin! "Hahahahahaha, you are still as evil and cunning as in your youth, why have you come?"
