ps: This is the second update. The third update should be relatively late. I will try my best to write it before 12 o'clock.
ps2: The emperor has worked very hard. Everyone is on holiday on May Day and I am working hard to update. Please vote for me~ In the dense, dark and airtight black forest, the big trees leading to the sky block all sight, and the air There is a strange atmosphere that cannot be described in words. The stream flows down the desolate road in the forest. It gathers in late autumn and the water is no longer turbulent. This should be a beautiful and quiet primeval forest scenery, but there is a sense of Weird breath.
Along the way, Aaron only encountered two owlbears and a group of centaurs. Apart from that, neither he nor Ms. Sandra saw any animals, and the deeper into the forest, the fewer animals there were.
"I don't think he is the son of a pasha at all." Ms. Sandra pushed aside the dense grass and suddenly said to Aaron who was following behind: "The elite junior, the son of a pasha who only took his first adventure in his twenties. ?”
"I understand what you mean, but the son of a pasha is a very broad concept." Aaron replied neutrally: "I guess he is indeed the son of a pasha, but his mother is not so favored. After all, his wife gave birth to him. He is the son of a pasha, and the concubine is also the son of a pasha, and even the one born by the kitchen maid is also the son of a pasha." In different parts of the country, the marriage system is different. Kalishan is not only a noble, but also a commoner. You can also marry four wives and more concubines, but the northern part of the country is relatively conservative. Most people abide by monogamy, but there are no explicit regulations. If someone has the ability to get multiple gods and priests to bless his marriage contract , he can also marry multiple wives.
The nobles always tried to avoid this situation, because it would mean that their lands and properties would be divided.
"Isn't this your first time leading someone?" Looking at the harpist's familiarity with the Cormanthor Forest, Aaron asked curiously: "Besides the ruins, what else is there in Myth Drannor?" ?”
"Myst Drannor knights, elven expeditions, human adventure teams, mind flayers, phaerim, undead creatures, demons, everything is there in the ruins of the great city of singing." Sandra shrugged, needless to say He said with a concerned tone: "Of course, what impressed me the most was the group of dawn searchers."
"Dawn Seekers?"
"Yes... around the 13th century of the Vale calendar, the Lord of the Dawn appeared in front of his priests. He asked his followers to try to recover Myth Drannor and gave them a sacred stone called the 'Dawn Stone'. His followers therefore formed the 'Dawn Seekers', and for hundreds of years, followers of the Lord of the Dawn have continued to join." The Harper didn't seem to have a good attitude when talking about this matter: "They are interested in every inch of the land here. , every time they make a new discovery, it means a lot of gains and huge casualties." This is always the case for Lathander's followers.
When Aaron heard this, he thought that the Lord of the Dawn always taught his idealism and far-sightedness to his followers. Under his influence, the believers in Lathander were always very radical in doing things, and they also liked to do some things.
The reason of "the crime lies in the present, but the benefit lies in the future" requires everyone to join in and engage in moral kidnapping. These people sometimes don't understand that when you don't want to hear what others have to say, others don't want to hear what you have to say.
Instead of thinking about the big one all day long, it’s better to figure out how to handle the small one first. You don’t grant me magical powers, so your master’s lofty aspirations have nothing to do with me?
So even though Lathander is a good god, he also expressed to Aaron that he wanted to
It means "closeness", but this is why Aaron resolutely draws a clear line with Lathander. You don't know when this god will suddenly have a sudden whim to do the whole thing.
Lathander never thought she had done anything wrong. The two walked through the dark forest. For the first time, Aaron could not hear the singing of birds or the calls of birds and animals in the forest. The only thing he could hear was the sound of the wind blowing through the deep forest. and Ms. Sandra’s footsteps and the sound of running water in the distance.
After walking through the narrow path, the scenery suddenly opened up. A small waterfall hung down from a cliff more than ten meters high. Green moss covered the stone surface of the pool under the cliff. The overgrown plants stretch out tenaciously, reflecting the scenery at both ends of the waterfall.
It's beautiful, but a little weird.
"I will send you here, Lord Aaron Salian. Going up this waterfall is the area around Myth Drannor." Sandra the Wind Chaser stopped: "Be careful, this is not Just kidding, I know what kind of enemies you have faced, but if you don't want to be remembered, you'd better be cautious, successfully get what you want, and do what you want immediately leave."
"Thank you for your advice." Aaron was silent for a few seconds and suddenly asked: "Finally, I have one more question, Ms. Sandra, have you ever entered Misdrone?" He looked fifty from the outside. The many-year-old lady suddenly smiled when she heard this question, and the thick wrinkles on her face stretched out: "Actually, I am 109 years old this year. You can call me an old lady precisely because I have been there."
"I was the only one who came back alive out of the thirty-six-member expedition."......The predecessor of the Cormanthor Empire was established after the Elven Crown War. At that time, several elven groups left the Kingdom of Arivanda. Fleeing, they came to a large forest called Accra and established five elven kingdoms. Due to the existence of sun elves, an elven royal court was also established here. After thousands of years of development, the five elven kingdoms gradually grew. .
The elves as a race have always rejected unity and authoritarian politics, but the next two things changed the elves' attitudes.
A meteorite fell from the sky, directly destroying an elven kingdom and killing three-quarters of the elves. This incident is called
"Skyfire Incident". Four hundred years after the Skyfire incident, a large group of drow elves and gray dwarves emerged from the tunnel. The nearby dwarf underground kingdom, which had always had a good relationship with the elves, perished. The elven royal court was also plundered by the drow, but the drow were not The elves who like to rule the land retreat underground, giving the elves here a chance to breathe.
It took the elves hundreds of years to recover. They began to reflect on whether excessive separatism had led to the tragedy of fighting against each other. The issue of unity was once again brought to the court for discussion by the elves. The crown king of the sun elves was dying of illness. think
"We must unite all the people who can be united" to unite and advance together. Of the remaining four kingdoms, three agreed to unite, while the Wood Elf Kingdom flatly refused.
So the high elven mages made three elven holy swords under the order of King Mian. All candidates who were qualified to participate in the election of King Mian participated in the test of the holy elven sword. One of the young people got the
Recognized by the "Sword of the Crown", he was crowned as the new crowned king. Since then, the elven kingdoms have declared their unification, and the new King Mian has integrated several elven kingdoms into one
"United Kingdom of Cormanthal" and announced that the Great Accra Forest would be renamed the Great Forest of Cormanthal. The Crown King wandered in the Great Forest of Cormanthal for fifteen years. Guided by the illusion and the Sword of the Crown, he used the sword to Inserted into a small hill in the north, the power of the Crown Sword materialized into a high tower, with the high tower as the center, where the United Kingdom of Cormanthel was based.
In the next 3000 years, the United Kingdom of Cormanthel relied on the power of unity to defeat the attacks of the orcs, the evil god Moander, and the drow. The kingdom continued to develop. At the same time, the Wood Elf Kingdom that refused to join the United Kingdom finally defeated the giants and Destroyed by orc attack.
The sixth crowned king of Cormanthel, Erta Green, deeply regretted this, so he paid tribute to the legacy left by the previous crowned kings.
"Unite all the people who can unite" was further interpreted, thinking that the meaning in this sentence
"People" not only include elves, but also include dwarves, halflings, humans, dwarves and other kind races. Yin Erta Green invited humans to cultivate land near the big forest, and both parties agreed to peaceful coexistence.
This is
"Valley" and
The origin of the "Valley Calendar" is that on the day when humans accepted the invitation from the elves to sign a contract, the Valley Calendar began, and that year was
"Valley Calendar Year 1". After that, there is the story of Yin Erminster. Under the guidance of the second-generation magic goddess Mystra, Yin Erminster successfully entered the Cormanthor Forest, and finally turned enemies into friends with the elves, successfully convincing most of the elves. After accepting him, as the Mystery Chain covering the entire city rose, the United Kingdom of Cormanthor was officially upgraded to the Cormanthor Empire. Crown King Yin Erta Green and Chief Archmage Ms. Silinci announced that the capital would be renamed. Myth Drannor.
This is the origin of Myth Drannor. So, in the context of the kingdom,
The word "empire" does not mean
"Imperial centralized state", but more representative of
“Diversity within a country”
It means "external expansion". Under Yin Erta Green's wise leadership and Silinxi's assistance, the prosperity of Myth Drannor reached its peak: for the first time in history, elves, humans, dwarves, gnomes, halflings and other forest races lived in harmony. Together, care for each other and support each other.
Under the protection of the powerful Mystic Lock, people live a long and healthy life without worries about food and clothing. The society is highly developed and progressed. Sister cities have been established one after another. The most famous one is Silvermoon City. Myst Drannor has become the capital of magic and art and has been dubbed
"City of Singing". The splendor of this city cannot be matched by any other city in the history of the country.
Aaron slowly flew up the cliff on the Tzeentch Frisbee. In his mind, he recalled the excitement of Barrier-Moonflower when she talked about these histories. He was so moved that he couldn't help himself.
A society in which the world is united really once existed. Perhaps Myth Drannor's most glorious days were the Emperor's long-cherished wish.
"I have a dream." - The speech the Emperor once made to the humans of Terra was that the Emperor's territory included the Supreme Lord, the Emperor's Custodes, and the Organic Oil Elders, but left nothing for the Primarchs and Space Marines. Position, similarly, there are no elves and dwarves in the emperor's plan. Being able to accept halflings is probably the emperor's bottom line.
If that day came, what would you do with the Primarch and the Space Marines? My emperor? Aaron thought secretly in his heart.
Deep in the soul of the Emperor's Custodian, a strong long-cherished wish arose in Aaron's heart. Can I?
Can I recreate the glory of Myth Drannor again and build a dream kingdom? Aaron didn't know, but he had faith in himself.
It's getting foggy. After ascending to the cliff, the situation immediately became different. A thin mist enveloped the area above the cliff, and the scenery in front of them became chaotic and unclear. The mist enveloped the ruins in the distance, vaguely outlining the outline of the elves' past water conservancy projects.
Aaron knew he had reached the outskirts of Myth Drannor. He drew the Darkmoon Sword and slowly approached.
The feeling of magic became strange, the connection between him and the magic network became intermittent, and the spellcasting no longer felt rounded, but became obscure and chaotic.
There are echoes in the depths of the mist, and a strange whisper can also be heard vaguely. The scattered sentences composed by the elves are full of sadness and fascinating.
Aaron couldn't help but stop and listen. The echoing sound fills the air, and the mist blocks perception. There are two worlds inside the mist and outside the mist.
This also gave the ambushers in the fog an opportunity to take advantage of! Suddenly, from the corner, from behind the ruins, from the forest, from the mist, several humanoid monsters raised their arms and hit Aaron, the uninvited guest, like fired cannonballs!
As they got closer, these humanoid monsters finally revealed their true colors! The upper body is a huge mushroom, the lower body is human-like, and the humanoid monster is covered with moss and fungi. It raises its arms covered with parasitic toadstools and pounces towards Aaron.
Prey, here it comes!
