Chapter 26

After the fifth day of building the raft, it was about eighty percent ready.

At the same time, I got a new skill - "Carpenter", and raised it to level 5.

And after a hard day I took a guitar, which just as miraculously escaped and managed not to be damaged in a crash and played Stas Piekha "Green Pool". Why this particular song? Everything is much more difficult to explain here. Rather, I can say, but I will take a long time to guess "why". In general, for the last three days I have been "guarded" by one or two Amazons. Secretly, of course. But at first I just felt it as my fifth point, for which I received one more unit for intuition. And then I could see the surveillance. But I was not going to sing specially for someone, I was just bored, even sad, so I took it. And on the same day, my relationship with Temiskira went up a hundred. The next day, the situation repeated itself, except that apart from a hundred relationships with Temiskira, the relationship with Artemis also increased. And then when I stopped playing and went to bed, another message came that my relationship with Artemis and Diana increased by an additional hundred.

And now when I finished playing Piekha, apart from Themyscira, Artemis, Diana, I also flew in from Hippolyta.

I decided to continue playing a couple more romances, simultaneously looking out how many listeners had gathered this time. And I counted a dozen Amazons in the bushes. True, these were only silhouettes.

When I finished playing, I put my guitar aside and started going to bed.

- Do you like to sing and play the harp in this country? - Hippolyta herself asked me, who walked almost silently on the sand.

- Well, this is a moot point. Most often at holidays, with friends, or when sad.

- And you feel sad now? For whom or what?

- At home. And loved ones.

- You said that you have a loved one. Who is she?

- Well, she ... it's hard to describe our relationship. We keep each other at a distance from ourselves no matter what. Although I think now she thinks I'm dead. A lot of time has passed.

- Maybe. - Hippolyta sat down opposite me. And I immediately heard rustling in the bushes. Apparently the rest have already left. - You will stay here for a long time. And no, don't look at me like that, neither I nor my subjects will stop you from returning. I wanted to tell you that a cyclone is coming here. And he will have fun around our island for a long time. So drag your raft deeper into the forest. To avoid being carried out to sea or damaged. Better yet, the abandoned workshop where you live. And you yourself can live for a while in our city.

- Thanks for the information. But why are you so kind to me? You hate men.

- We do not like them for the cruelty that they show. But we do not hate them for their very existence. After all, children are not born without them. And you ... you are different and reminded us all then in the arena that we began to forget something important. That we are just as capable of cruelty and the manifestation of anger even more than sometimes men.

- Thanks for these words. - I smiled.

+ 100 to relations with Hippolyta.

Come on! I need to smile more often. Maybe this is the secret of the Joker's success in terms of life? It's just that no one has yet nailed him or shot him during all this time. And maybe this is due to his smile?

Yes, the philosopher has woken up in me again.

- Tomorrow you can already move to the palace. - and after these words Hippolyta left.

And at first I plunged into myself, spinning in my head different thoughts that relate to Gotham and the DS universe in general. After all, I just now realized that I don't have a clear plan, but that there is no clear, approximate plan of action. There are big words and dreams. But it cannot go on that long.

Therefore, you need to think seriously.

So what could be the plan to "save the universe?" And her "change"?

Well, first of all, for this I need some kind of base, foundation. Which one? Organization is quite a logical way out. And there are two ways out. The first is to join some already existing one, and the second is to create one.

But joining the current one runs into a number of problems. One of the main reasons is that the current unions and organizations have been created by some countries and are aimed at strengthening one country. And I need the safety of an entire planet. Therefore, even the same "Argus" will not work yet.

Then the second option remains - to create a powerful organization that would influence the politics and life of mankind in addition to saving it from herself and such monsters as Darkseid and Trigona.

But in order to create such an organization, and for it to function normally, money and people are needed.

We have a problem with money, with people we are already more or less solving the problem. The question will be on what basis and principles to unite them.

Though the Justice League ideas are pretty good. You can take note of them. But their excessive pacifism and humanism drives me crazy. Therefore, you will have to do something about it.
