It's all one flower.
0035. Hidden Monotheists
Roark grew up hearing about the painful lives of the people of the Autonomous Communities from an early age.
My grandfather and his parents are officers of the district's faithful association. In that relationship, the Diaphanes have a lot of people in and out.
Every week, Roark was made to participate in holiday worship, and at subsequent debriefings, he was also asked about the Kirkuls living in the Autonomous Community.
The great Lacus is Salt Lake.
I can't use the lake water as it is.
Coastal wells include salt.
There is only one freshwater facility, and in the Ristover Autonomous Region, genuine water is a precious commodity.
Households are oppressed by the purchase of water, with many poor houses.
A house that can't even buy true water has to drink salt and gas mixed well water as it is. They do kidneys and the circulatory system, but they can't screw up medical bills and end a short lifetime.
If it's a short life anyway, there are many people who choose a transient way of life, and it's insecure.
Some people cross the southern border, the Kublum Mountains, and aspire to the Kingdom of Lacrimalis.
The southwestern part of the island of Negna connects with the island of Lanterna on the North Vieetfi Bridge.
The ultimate aim of the transboundary is not the Kingdom of Lacrimalis, but the island of Lanterna, the territory of the Republic of Artel in the Kirkulus.
Most of them refuse to know whether they will be attacked by demons and warcraft on the way over the mountains, as opposed to passing through the Kingdom of Lacrimalis.
Lake Lacus is also full of demons.
Unless you are a wizard such as the people of the lake who get the protection of the goddess, you cannot fight it.
Fisheries and water transport are the main industries in the whole of the Republic of Nemoralis, but Kirkuls in the autonomous region of Listwar are impossible to do both.
Land close to the lake contains salt and is not suitable for agriculture.
If you are a wizard, you can expand your farmland by removing salt from the land.
Impossible for the people of the Autonomous Communities.
Make a living from forestry in the mountains that extend to the south of the Autonomous Community and from farming on the marginal agricultural land of the hemline, manufacturing mechanical components, etc.
Forestry is also intended to prevent demons from descending at the foot and will not be planted. Just cut it near the hem during the day and you can't go to the back of the mountain.
Believers with relatives and friends acquaintances in the Autonomous Community of Listver speak of their plight in tears.
Weekly, weekly, never tired of it.
Believers living in the Seljebro district said they were secretly assisting with food, etc., but it was hard to believe for Roark.
All the stories told in tears sounded daunting, dismissive and empty.
How far is it true and how much talk?
I had no idea how far I could believe their "pathetic appeal" to Rourke, who had never actually seen how the autonomous community was doing.
... Mostly, if you don't like poverty, I wish you could stop Kirkurism and move over here. Why aren't you on fire over here?
The presence or absence of magic is hereditary.
No children shall be born between the people of land and the people of the lake, but if the people of land, they shall also leave their children among the powerless and powerful people.
In the Hunan region of Lacus, mixed blood progresses, and many families and relatives mix powerful and powerless people.
The teachings of Kirkulusism utterly deny witchcraft.
Some families were torn apart by differences in faith.
The Diaphanes of Rourke did not fall apart.
Probably because there is not a single powerful people within the confines of what we know.
Kirkuls, but converted to Fraxinus, thirty years before forced emigration. That is an ostensible story, which in fact secretly upholds the faith.
There were many similar houses.
There are many demons in the lake.
Less than a lake, but there are demons in the land plains where people live. Wetlands and mountain forests in the hinterland of the island are inhabitable by many strong demons and warcraft.
To protect yourself from demons, you really have to use magical powers.
To survive in this region, it is impossible to abandon magic altogether.
What will happen to the future of the Autonomous Communities, which will completely eliminate witchcraft?
Those who predicted abandoned the teachings of the saint Kirkulus.
My parents are such hidden Kirkuls faithful association officers that my grandfather acts as a counsellor and is revered like a priest.
There are many people in the Seljebro district who work for shipping companies, trading companies, etc. Adults also provided personal assistance and gathered information while traveling to the Autonomous Communities for work.
