The knight in the abyss

Chapter 728 The Year of Turmoil - Part [-]

"The energy released by the battle between Tom and Bane destroyed most of Tetris Port, and even created a large area of ​​​​dead magic—all magic in it will be completely invalidated. The forbidden magic stone found on the body was produced in this kind of divine fall. At that time, a group of adventurers happened to be on the scene..."

"Let me guess, Kelemvor is in it?"

"Indeed." Karaline nodded towards Lancelot, "but the future lord of the dead didn't get any benefit from it. There are several important figures in this team, besides the warrior Kelemvor, and the female mage Midnight, Thief Cyric, and Priest Anton."

"Sounds very similar to our group." Lancelow sighed inadvertently, "That Anton...whose pastor is he?"

"He was...a priest of Sune at the time." Karaline glanced at Alamir apologetically, "At least that's what I heard."

"This matter is not a secret in the kingdom." The elf priest shook his head lightly, "It was a regrettable misunderstanding. What I want to emphasize is that Ms. Love has never abandoned this excellent priest, and never An act of betrayal that did not retaliate against Anton. You go ahead and I will explain it later."

"I have no doubt about this." Kara Lin immediately agreed, "After all, it was a special era. When the gods were unable to respond to the believers, the more favored believers were, the more likely their faith would be shaken because they lost the guidance of the gods. .By the way, Kelemvor and Midnight, the later Goddess of Magic, were a pair of close lovers at that time..."

"The later goddess of magic?" Star Strike exclaimed in surprise, "One of the strongest gods in the multiverse, the goddess of magic, Mystra, has also changed?"

"Senior, your information is outdated. The goddess of magic has changed over 2000 years ago." Sword of Zariel said faintly, "A great arcanist in Netheril seems to be called Kasas, cast the only twelve-ring spell in history, trying to steal the priesthood of the goddess of magic..."

"This is the stupidest and craziest spell I've ever heard." Starstrike's voice sounded frightened, "He wanted to carry the burden of the magic net with a mortal body... I guess he exploded on the spot ?”

"Yes, and Mystra was quickly reborn on a peasant girl. However, during the period between His fall and resurrection, the magic net stopped working for a short time, and all magic net-based spells were ineffective. Nai The magnificent floating cities of the Seril Empire fell to the ground due to loss of power. Although the goddess of magic rushed to help immediately after her resurrection, she only had time to let the three floating cities escape from the fate of destruction. It was this incident that marked the first With the birth of the second Goddess of Magic, its camp tends to be lawful, and it is forbidden to release any ten-ring and above spells through the magic net..."

"Humans." Star Strike sighed, "Compared to your too short lifespan, your ability to stab people is not inferior to elves..."

"Our race has matured a lot." Aramir protested without confidence, "And to be honest, the Aras are the ancestors of the elves..."

"Yes, so I am very clear about what you fellows who stayed on the main material plane did. But the topic tonight is not us, dear Kara Lin, tell me quickly how the goddess of magic died this time of?"

"Because she left her own kingdom of God, the goddess of magic couldn't 'sort out' the magic net, and the magic on the material plane became dangerous and unpredictable. I was worried that the magic energy running around would lead to a tragedy like Netheril again, Mystra , the name of the goddess of magic at that time, boarded the ladder of heaven, trying to go to the astral world and return to her own kingdom of God, in order to manage the chaotic magic net..."

"Stairway to heaven?" Lancelot immediately caught a new term, "What is that?"

"The creation of Selene, the goddess of the moon, has many entrances and exits for the gods to travel between the outer planes and the mortal world. Generally speaking, mortals on the main material plane cannot see this ladder, but In the Year of Troubles, an obvious entrance appeared on the mountain outside Waterdeep, as if waiting for someone to pass through, and the goddess of magic was No. 30 five days after the gods fell from heaven on the night of Midsummer, Climb up the steps..."

"Didn't it mean that no one can return unless all the stone slabs are found?" Lancelow asked strangely, "Did God God not set up any obstacles on the steps?"

"Yes. Io sent Heim, the god of defense and protection, to stay on the Heavenly Stairway. Io allowed Heim to retain all of his divine powers, and asked him to prevent any gods from returning to Heaven through the Stairway unless someone brought The Slate of Fate, and the Guardian God faithfully carried out his mission. Mystra argued with Heim, claiming that she had no reason to be involved in the theft of the Slate of Fate, and she wanted to explain it to the God God, but Heim was unconvinced In a fit of anger, Mystra attacked Heim, trying to get him out of the way, and Heim was forced to hit back..."

"And then killed the mighty Goddess of Magic, whose strength is second only to Io's?" Star Strike asked incredulously, "Heim... really did it?"

"Yes." Kara Lin nodded heavily, "The Goddess of Magic was only a saint at the time, but Heim has all her strength as a god. With just one punch, the Goddess of Magic exploded, and the essence scattered on the ground , without any wreckage left..."

"So that's what happened..." Star Strike sighed, "Goddess of magic is really a dangerous job. What happens next? Is the magic net unusable again..."

"This time the situation is different. Because the essence of the goddess of magic has merged into the earth, the magic can still take effect in some areas, and some specific spellcasters seem to be completely unaffected." Kara Lin continued, " One of them is Midnight, the female mage in the adventure team. As a voter of the goddess of magic, she has a part of the essence of the goddess in her body, but she didn't know it at the time. She got the tablet of fate in Port Tantris Afterwards, everyone plans to go to Waterdeep City, climb up the heavenly ladder, and return the tablet of fate to Io..."

"I guess Baal and Melkor must have their eyes on these people." Lancelow rubbed his chin, "Although they don't have divine power, as saints, their strength is not something that a group of mortal adventurers can resist... "

"Under normal circumstances, it's really impossible, but after obtaining the Tablet of Fate, more than one god targeted this group of adventurers. Cyric, the thief in the team, killed a halfling thief on the way and took from him A beautiful long sword..."

"I'll bet on Brutal's beard, there's definitely something wrong with that sword." Lancelot shrugged, "Probably he can talk."
