"Ah, I slept so well." Rahul stretched and blinked, and even yawned a little. "Um... Why are you looking at me like that now?" He narrowed his eyes as he looked at his team.
"How the Fene did you manage to sleep through this, Rahul?" Suk grimaced and even put his hands on his hips.
"What did I sleep through?" The chüvigh boy scratched his head.
"A threat from the Onegod!" Benkó rolled his eyes.
"Again?" Rahul narrowed his eyes, really not understanding what was going on around him.
"A little more harshly now. He literally threatened everyone almost by name and not in a letter, but in person." Achilles added.
"Was he here in person? I seriously thought he didn't exist." The chüvigh boy scratched his head.
"Yeah, so I really don't know how you managed to sleep through all that." Citar blinked at his friend in confusion.
"I was really tired, I guess." He spread his arms, indicating that he didn't know how it could have happened either. "As a matter of fact, I haven't been this tired in a long time." The boy held his chin with one hand. "How did we get here anyway?" Rahul looked around. "The last thing I remember is going to bed in our house to sleep." He thought about it.
"Well, let's say that peacock pretended to set the whole city on fire." Suk folded his arms in front of him.
"Did he set the place on fire? But you can't see it!" Rahul grimaced.
"I'm telling you, he pretended to!" The Zovárd boy shrugged.
"Listen, Rahul, you know the stories here. This Onegod here is he really like this..." Benkó started the question, but grimaced as he did so. "Crazy?" He finally blurted it out, then nodded. "Yeah, there's no better word for it. Crazy." He repeated the statement.
"Well, to be honest, I don't know much besides the stories. The scriptures say that he's a kind-hearted, helpful being. At least as long as you don't break his laws." Rahul explained thoughtfully, then shrugged. "Although if you asked me, I think it's nonsense and that adults just made it up so that children would behave well." The boy put his hands on his hips.
"Well, if they had threatened me with this crazy person when I was little, I would have behaved too." Achilleus shivered.
"Ah, I think being pushed into the swamp is worse." Suk shrugged.
"And I know he kills children. If I can believe the priest at home, and the weird guy from my childhood, really was the Onegod." Rahul spoke again, which made everyone look at him again.
"Kills children?" Teveli's eyes widen.
"That's what he said, but maybe he just wanted to scare me. I was in the forest at a time when I shouldn't have. After a big nyiumgyi invasion. Normally you shouldn't go into the forest at that time, but since dad and Uncle Tete had cleared the area, I thought everything would be fine." Rahul explained, but he didn't look at the other Athamanas, only to the side at the houses, as if searching the walls for his memories.
"Let's just say that sounds a lot like the crazy one." Citar grimaced.
"If you ask me, I don't know if this information makes me feel better or worse." The Bokló boy shivered.
"Worse, peeing boy, you should definitely feel worse." Achilleus gives Benkó a slap.
"Hey! You shouldn't have done that!" The Bokló boy gets angry, but before they can jump at each other's throats again, Razvan grabs both of their clothes by the nape of their necks and pulls them apart.
"That's enough." The leader of the Athamanas said seriously. "It won't help the situation if you fight. We don't know anything about this Onegod. I'm not willing to be scared by simple words." Razvan announced in a cold voice.
"Oh, Csito has become very serious. You looked like that when you made me wipe out battlefields." Etele's voice suddenly spoke out of nowhere. Then the ghost appeared behind Rahul and put his arm around the boy's shoulder, who just looked at him with a grimace.
"And you're so proud of that?" The boy asked, and his ghost relative just shrugged.
"What does a few thousand people matter in that situation? Either you kill them or they kill you." The ghost said in a completely calm voice. "And anyways, they would be dead long ago if I left them alive. You don't have to feel bad about it." He explained.
"Svihák, do you know anything about that figure?" The leader of the Athamanas asked, which only made the ghost snort.
"We lived in the same era, we died on the same day, if you don't know who he is, I won't either." Etele stepped away from Rahul and opened his arms. "As for my death." The ghost began to explain. "What do you think I could have known about him when I was so busy haunting my family. I just didn't care what was going on in the West." The ghost shrugged.
"We're just more with you, Svihák." Razvan grimaced.
"Hey! You say that as if it were my job to keep an eye on this place." Etele folded his arms in front of him. "I will inform you that it was not so." The ghost grumbled, then sighed heavily. "But if you want, I can try to find out if the ghosts know anything about him." He offered.
"If you find out anything, tell me immediately." Razvan gave the order.
"I have an idea of how we can get information about the Onegod." Citar suddenly became enthusiastic, which made everyone look at him curiously. "The future preacher. If anyone, he should know everything about the madman." The boy put his hands on his hips proudly.
"Then it's time to find Santi." The leader of the Athamanas smiled.
"You were with him last, Citar. Do you know where he is?" Teveli asked, but the Bolacsuk boy just shrugged.
"I have no idea. He just took me to the Temple of Floating Air, explained a lot of things about the sacred bird. I don't know why I had to listen to the whole thing, when it concerns Lynx." The boy grimaced. "Then he simply went somewhere, the idiot knows where." He shrugged.
"Hurray! That means we can search the whole of Floating Barracks." Suk ruffled his hair, grimacing.
"Actually, I'm not sure." Rahul spoke again and when he looked at the group, he grinned. "Santi is a priest, and not just any priest, he's the future preacher. According to local customs, there aren't many places where they could accommodate him." The boy explained. "He must be somewhere close to the Temple of Floating Air. So we really only have to look around the area around the temple." Rahul straightened himself.
"Oh, we already know where he is then." Benkó's eyes sparkled.
"So what are we waiting for guys? Let's give Santi a heart attack." Rahul laughed, thanks to which the team immediately set off through the dark streets of the city.
