You decide not to state all the true reasons why you came to this city.

You decide not to talk about the reasons for your visit. You believe that caution will be useful for you.

So you say: “I would like to get rich and get various valuable things for myself. For example: I would like to have a gun. That’s why I came to this city. Other hunters of our tribe told me that in this city there is always work and the opportunity to get valuable things "

Sebastian's smile widens.

He says: "That's very good! You're an enterprising guy! And you've come to the right place!"

You continue to slowly take sips of the strange drink in your glass.

Sebastian says: “So that you can use your abilities most effectively in our city, you will need some basic knowledge. I will tell you a little about our beautiful city. You should know that the Free City of Alma is the true heir to the human civilization that existed before the Universal Catastrophe! Do you know what name all the surrounding lands had before the Universal Catastrophe?"

You answer: “My grandfather told me something about this. But I forgot a lot.”

Sebastian continues his speech: “Before the Universal Catastrophe, all civilized lands were under the rule of a state called the “United States of America”. This was a state that controlled almost all the lands on the planet. Well, perhaps, except for some remote small islands in the ocean, where savages lived. The United States of America was founded on the Idea of Freedom. Ancient America before the Universal Catastrophe had a huge amount of powerful technology, a huge amount of wealth, food, energy."

Conrad interrupts Sebastian's words: “If everything was so wonderful in this Ancient America, then why did the Universal Catastrophe happen at all?”

You timidly say: “The legends of our tribe say that the Universal Catastrophe occurred due to the fact that the Eternal Battle of the Good and Evil Gods was interrupted. Due to the fact that people lost faith in the Good Gods, the Good Gods left this world, and the Evil Gods began to destroy world."

Sebastian laughs.

Then he asks Conrad: “We heard Eddie’s version of the causes of the Universal Catastrophe. What is your own version, Conrad?”

Conrad briefly answers: “I was told that the cause of the Universal Catastrophe lies in the consequences of the war between ancient states.”

Sebastian grins.

Sebastian says: “This is nonsense. The United States of America completely controlled the entire human civilization. No other state could cause even the slightest harm to the United States of America. How, under such conditions, is a war possible that destroyed human civilization for centuries? This is simply absurd. Besides , it is impossible to even imagine what kind of weapon could cause flooding of lands, changes in the landscape of entire continents, the **** of tens of millions of people. So let me tell you about the true causes of the Universal Catastrophe. I am, after all, an educated person, my parents live in the Free City of Alma all their lives, They have fourth-tier citizenship and they paid for my school fees."
