- Akatori Tales — Dreams - 4 August 2026
The initiation ceremony is approaching, and the novices grow more anxious with each passing day. Mako feels as if a tight, painful knot is slowly winding itself inside her — a new stage of her life.— Mako, what are you thinking about? — Oh, leave me alone, Yumi. — Nervous? — No. Yes. Leave me alone.The other novices gather around. They fall silent. Then…— Whoa, I'm going to see the world beyond the monastery! — And the police! Maybe I'll even become one of them. — I'm heading to the capital! — Bao, what if the police don't accept monks? — I'll buy myself some ordinary clothes… — What do you mean, they don't accept? Why? — Can monks get married? — I hope I never have to see that amber again! — And who would want you?! — I'm going to organize a revolutionary cell. — Who's going to go to the Amber Castle in your place? — Can I come with you? — You guys have boring plans! As for me…Mako say…

- Akatori Tales - Diary - 20 July 2026
ARCHIVE OF THE IMPERIAL MINISTRY OF INTERNAL AFFAIRS DOCUMENT 2604A DOCUMENT TYPE: PRIMARY SOURCE. PERSONAL DIARY OF A PHYSICIAN FROM A SMALL SETTLEMENT DELIVERED BY A CLEARANCE SQUAD Day 1 The world one teleport away from us has been infected with amber. There is a company of soldiers at the teleport. They warned us, but ordered us to keep quiet for now, so as not to cause panic. The infection doesn't seem serious. At the village council meeting, I handed out civil defense leaflets. So that people wouldn't get lost. Marie packed an emergency bag. I hope the stress doesn't affect her pregnancy. Day 2 Today the preventive evacuation of the population began. I've been helping Captain Schneider since early morning. There is already a queue at the checkpoint. People are dragging all sorts of things with them — they're even bringing their livestock. In the evening, I calmed the people down,…

- Akatori Tales - The General's Daughter - 27 June 2026
Mako has been on her feet since dawn. Basic skills, routines — when is there time to rest?By evening, the abbot summons them to the reception room. And Hana is there too. When did they manage to get in trouble?— All right, you slovenly girls, I need to have a word with the general. And you two keep his daughter company.The general's daughter — Hilda — eyes the nuns with suspicion. The girl is very pale and breathes heavily, with a wheeze.— And why did you tag along with your father? — The doctors say mountain air is good for my lungs. — Training is good for breathing. You're more short of breath than an amber goat.Hilda doesn't respond to the rudeness. Mako doesn't like that; she's already gearing up for another jab, but Hana cuts in.— What a beautiful dress… And your hairstyle! You must be tired of choosing among all the boys around you. — How can you say that! I'm engaged! — And when'…
- Akatori Tales - Imperial Scientific Society - 3 June 2026
… allow me to draw your attention to the fact that the monks of the Akatori Monastery possess an exceptionally high resistance to the effects of amber. We shall not entertain absurd suppositions regarding Akatori's patronage. The so-called "god" has not been seen by anyone for many years, which permits us to conclude that all this "divinity" was nothing more than a mystification. Meanwhile, modern science — my laboratory in particular — has been studying the phenomenon of the monks' high tolerance for several years now. At present, we are inclined toward the hypothesis that the matter lies in heredity, which the monks have learned to identify in newborns, thereby recruiting exclusively those who possess an innate amber resistance. Another hypothesis under our consideration states that the monks gradually develop their resistance through specially developed physical and spiritual practic…
