Instigated and supported by the goddess of night, Shar, the god of conspiracy, Xirik, sneaked into the Heart of Spells and murdered the goddess of magic, Midnight, causing the collapse of the magic network and triggering an unimaginable catastrophe. The magic network is also called the magic network. In Toril, most people believe that it was created by the first generation of magic goddess, Mystra. This statement is correct, but not accurate. The magic network originally existed, because the magic element runs through all corners of the multiverse. Every stone, every river, every living thing, and even the air contains magic and has its own operating rules. This is the most basic magic network. Mystra only further processed it on this basis to form a magic network that is convenient for those spellcasters to perceive the elements. The emergence of the magic network has made the threshold for spellcasting in the Toril plane lower, and those who were originally unable to cast spells have mastered the secrets of magic. In view of this convenience, the divine arts bestowed by the gods on their servants are also transmitted through this network-this kind of magic is called divine magic. When the first generation of Mystra was shaping the magic network, she integrated the magic goddess's priesthood with the essence of the magic network. When the third generation of magic goddess Midnight was assassinated, the priesthood and the essence of the magic network were separated, causing the magic network to completely collapse. The collapse of the magic network is not as simple as the spellcaster losing the spellcasting network. The gods also lost the divine spell transmission network.
The balance of the elements was also completely disrupted. The stirred elements rolled up a devastating storm, swallowing up everything along the way, tearing it apart, melting it, and inlaying it - this elemental storm is called blue flame because it is blue, and it was called the year of blue flame. The gods were also affected, especially the magic system. The magic goddess Midnight died, the heart of the spell of the kingdom of God collapsed, the god of prophecy Savras died, the god of magicians Azus and the demigod lich Velsharon were thrown into the starry sky, and thousands of magicians fell into madness. Many planes were also displaced or destroyed. Only a powerful divine power can protect one's kingdom from being destroyed, and all other kingdoms of gods are affected. The blue flame swept across Toril, with Faerun being the worst. The Arcane Calamity reshaped the earth, causing it to rumble and rise and fall like the sea. The curtain of blue flame swept across the earth, splitting the mountains and rivers, lifting the plains and shaping new ridges. The fragments of the continent broke free from gravity and became floating islands suspended in the sky. The Arcane Calamity destroyed all the magic items in Halrua, the kingdom of mages, and caused a violent explosion. Even the city of Waterdeep, thousands of kilometers away, felt the explosion. The violent explosion sent Toril's Maztec continent into the sister plane Eberron. And Eberron's Kord continent was dragged to Toril. Everything was swapped. For ordinary creatures, swapping is a fatal disaster, and less than one in a hundred thousand survives. The seabed of the Falling Star Sea collapsed, and the seawater poured into the huge dark area below. The water level dropped by 15 meters, and the area shrank by half. … Lord Virginia suddenly let go of Gavin's hand. At this moment, she was already in tears. She read some information from the contact just now. Just the fragmented picture made her tremble uncontrollably.
The scene was too tragic. Under the blue flame, let alone human power, even the gods were like ants, unable to shake the coming of such a disaster. Although there was no fairy wilderness in those pictures, as one of the echoes of the material plane, when the material plane suffered a devastating disaster, how could it escape? At this moment, Lord Virginia had completely believed in Gavin, believed in the dream he said, and even believed that this dream was the future - if Gavin, the fate reshaper, could not reshape his fate. But does the young man in front of him really have this ability? … This kind of soul fusion perception is not one-sided. When Lord Virginia was sensing Gavin's memories. Gavin was also sensing Lord Virginia's. From her heart, Gavin felt deep sorrow and longing, and the back of a man was lingering. Gavin couldn't help but want to see the man's back clearly, and followed him involuntarily, but as his footsteps approached, the man's back seemed to be moving forward, getting deeper and deeper. Until the man's back disappeared, and he was left standing there alone. When Gavin turned around and wanted to go back, he suddenly found that the man's back appeared behind him, and he bumped into him face to face. When he came back to his senses again, the man's back disappeared again. From beginning to end, Gavin didn't see the man's appearance clearly. Then the green like a tide surged and poured into the soul consciousness, with only vitality and cheers. At this time, the hands of the two had been loosened. Gavin was a little confused. He didn't know how much information Lord Virginia had read from him, nor did he know what the man's back he had just sensed was. … Virginia's ability to control herself was very strong. Her gaffe only lasted a few seconds before she regained control of her emotions. She leaned forward and said, "Previously, I had sensed that Lord Gavin had been burdened with a heavy fate, but I didn't expect that. This kind of fate is so heavy. The road you have to walk is not a single-plank bridge, but a knife edge, or even a mantis' arm blocking the car..." "I know." Gavin said calmly, "But there are some things that must be done by someone. Even if the hope is extremely slim, will the lord do nothing because of this and wait for his fate to come?" "I have learned a lesson." Lord Virginia said sincerely, "In this aspect, you think more than I do and see further. You are my teacher, I, Virginia *Aval* Madeleine , I am willing to form an alliance with you to fight against this disaster together, without any regrets.” Lord Virginia once again stretched out his hand, but this time, it was shining with bright light, and countless mysterious runes were flowing. This is not a verbal contract, this is a real magical contract. Once signed, violation will be punished by the laws of nature. Gavin stretched out his right hand without hesitation and said solemnly: "I, Gavin Nott, am willing to enter into an alliance with you." Hold hands. Gavin felt something being pulled out of his body and entering the other person's body through the hand he held. Similarly, a green energy was injected into his body, dyeing him green out of thin air.
A line of small golden characters slowly emerged in the sea of his consciousness. Fairy Wilderness Contract: You signed a contract with Virginia, the lord of the Fairy Wilderness. From then on, the Fairy Wilderness will be your closest friend. You are protected by the power of the Fairy Wilderness. You can freely walk through the natural woodland. All kindness Fey will naturally have a favorable impression of you, and you gain the limited ability to use Fairy Steps (five times per day). All evil fey will regard you as an enemy. Gavin felt that today, he was too weak to count the benefits. wrong. It should be said that it was the past few days. Lord Virginia is simply his goddess of luck. All the benefits he obtains are either given by her or are directly or indirectly related to her. And this Fairy Wilderness Contract is the biggest harvest of all. Needless to say, Fairy Steps, the Yaling's innate ability is similar to the Flash Technique. If used well, the melee combat ability can be pushed to a new peak. Qiufeng Blani, led by Sterina, is one of the best. The only flaw is that it cannot be used casually like a real eladrin, but it is an unexpected gain after all. A contract allows you to use other people's racial abilities. It is impossible to ask for more, otherwise it would be too greedy. Freely walking through the forest is just like the Druid's special ability to walk through the forest. You can walk on thorny plants, dense woods or similar terrain without suffering any damage or hindrance. This ability is quite practical. In Gavin's view, the most valuable thing is that all kind-hearted spirits will have a favorable impression of him. This means that when he recruits fairies in the future, he will have a natural bonus and be more likely to succeed. Kobolds are only masters at mining, but the elves are more talented at farming. Fey are not only found in the Fairy Wilderness, but also in the material plane, especially in the forest. Not far from the rocky land, there is one of the largest forests in Faerûn - the Corsoman Forest. As for the hostility of evil spirits, Gavin simply ignored it. Even if they didn't have this, they would still find trouble for themselves. Otherwise, how could they be called evil? It was just a deeper or shallower hatred. "Now that the contract has been signed, Lord, can you talk about your entire plan in detail?" Lord Virginia waved his hand and created a table and chairs in the sea of consciousness, looking like he was going to have a long conversation. Although in the sea of consciousness, there is no difference between standing and sitting. Due to habit, sitting always feels more formal than standing, especially for military and national events. "Strength is the most important thing, not only personal strength, but also collective strength." Gavin replied without thinking, "Without enough strength, everything else is in vain." "Of course I know this. Can you be more specific, such as your development plan in Yandi?" Virginia is still concerned about the development of Yandi. After all, it is closely related to her own interests. Being willing to help Gavin does not mean giving up one's own interests unconditionally, especially since Chunya Forest is still facing internal and external troubles. If these problems are not solved, talking about a future catastrophe will be a bit too far away. Gavin originally wanted to talk freely about his entire grand plan in Faerûn, because so far, everything has been thought up and planned by him alone, and he has never talked about it with anyone. Lord Virginia There is no one who knows his situation best now. But the Lord of Virginia brought Gavin back to reality with a stick, and plans could never keep up with the changes. Don’t say anything else. The baby dragon Ivinsa was not on his plan. Because of her appearance, Gavin had already adjusted the kobold development plan for several times. The Fairy Wilderness was not even in Gavin's plan. What had happened in the past few days was like a dream, and the harvest and strength growth rate was the sum of the past few months.
My overall plan in Rockland needs to be adjusted to a new level. Lord Virginia is not that easy to fool. Instead of painting a pie, it's better to talk to her about something more practical. Gavin's thoughts wandered, and he coughed twice and said: "If we want to talk about Rockland, we must first talk about the surrounding political situation. How much does the lord know about the outside world?" "In general, I understand part of it. To the north is the arcane empire of Netheril and the Faerim. The great desert of Aenook created by the magical war thousands of years ago. To the south is the forest kingdom of Cormyr. To the east is the The great forests and valleys of Corsoman, and the goblin wilderness to the west. Due to its special terrain, the rocky land is now a remote area of the Kingdom of Cormyr. Except for important trade routes where some troops are stationed, the rest is abandoned and left to the mercenaries to freely develop. I heard that it can help the Kingdom of Cormyr conquer the rocky land. Will be canonized as a baron. What you want to take is not this path, but using kobolds to find another shortcut, right? " Lord Virginia's eyes on the material plane spread wider and further than Gavin imagined. At least he understood some things on the surface. In this way, Gavin didn't need to waste any more words, nodded and said: "Yes, the rocky land is in a special situation. Conquering it from the outside by force is much higher than rising from the inside. Especially the land here is not suitable for large-scale farming. Even if it is conquered by force, Not many humans are willing to migrate here. As time goes by, it will still be abandoned, and various monster communities will migrate back and slowly return to their original state. Kobolds are different. They naturally like to dig holes, and are also suitable for living in mines and rocky areas, which are rich in minerals. They can be used as territorial citizens in the future to squeeze out the living space of other monster groups, and finally drive them away completely. Now that initial results have been achieved, the next step is to build on this foundation and make it bigger and stronger. It's just that the food of the Black Well Tribe is mainly transported from outside. This can only solve the urgent need, not a long-term solution..." Lord Virginia made it clear, "You want to buy some grain from the Spring Bud Forest."
