[Tips] Sometimes words or phrases slip into our everyday vernacular without us remembering that they were originally from some internet meme. It happens more easily when more regular turns of phrase get used in the “source material.”

The power words have to intentionally alter one’s position—in other words, one’s existence—can be leveraged to political ends more deadly than ten thousand swords.

“Oooof...”

The young herbalist felt a strange pang of jamais vu at the sight of her party member groaning on the bed. Where Kaya had been groaning due to her own embarrassment, Margit seemed to be suffering from a physical pain.

“Are you feeling okay? You’ve looked a bit under the weather ever since you arrived. I’m still but a novice herbalist, but if you tell me your symptoms I can prepare something for you.”

“Mmf... No, it’s quite all right. I’m in pain, but it is not all that bad. It’s more like a...lethargic feeling. A heaviness, like my spine has been replaced with lead.”

The two of them were in Kaya’s personal room, taking a small rest after the guys went out to enact their schemes. When the news about the sheer size of the bounty Kaya had won left her reeling from the stress, Margit had been the one looking after her. Now the tables had turned; the arachne lay sprawled out, chest down, clutching a pillow tightly in her arms. Kaya felt more vulnerable than she might have expected.

Ordinarily the party would all have headed out together. They were less vulnerable to the city’s predations in one group, and even if there was no real danger, it just made more sense for the party to move as one during negotiations. But their scout—the one most fit to watch over them in a covert position—was in no condition to work, let alone stand up, so Erich and Siegfried had headed out alone.

Kaya had noticed that something was wrong with Margit the moment she had come in through the door. Her education on how to be a refined woman may have only been passed down from her mother, but Kaya had cultivated her social manners through self-study. She worked patiently and magnanimously, able to phase out her presence like the last embers of incense should the situation require.

She pondered what could have happened to the huntress. It couldn’t have been a job—Erich and Margit had said that they wanted at least ten days to just find some simple joy in being alive, and had thus sworn off work during this interim.

It was during this time that Siegfried had his unfortunate run-in with some overly persuasive merchants. Kaya had been well and truly happy that her closest friend was the sort of person to openly chat about what she might like to receive instead of forcing presents upon her under the expectation of receiving a thank-you, but even though she had been right there, things had proceeded too quickly for her to stop them. After looking at the bill, there was no possible way that Kaya could remain calm.
