free but now i see how ilia has made his first step on this road is what kind of person will he be when he is set free you will be can become a great artist you are an icon painter but it doesn't matter if he was a life of a normal citizen then it means that the goal has been reached. many convicts dream of starting a new off to their release the skills leave most of the behind bucks a short to come in handy. i have no close relatives my mom died and i only have distant relatives for them i think everything will be fine with the job with blacksmiths are needed everywhere so there's no worry what i want is to be set free of.
