Oster couldn't help scratching his head: "Why do I think that for our lords, the Temple of Helm is a stumbling block for the Knights of Justice?
It doesn’t matter if you come, but it might be better if you leave.”
Linn couldn't help but look at the Swordsinger's chosen one. This guy really had a keen sense: "Hill doesn't like slaves."
The Church of Heim is not a slave owner, but they are indeed the protectors of slave traders... and Heim's protective character has caused this originally highly respected god of protection to lose a lot of civilian faith, leaving him with no distinction between black and white.
mercenaries and adventurers.
"Then he really doesn't like Heim." Oster said nonchalantly, "Then we don't need to stop that guy from entering and exiting the temple area?"
"Don't worry about them. To be honest, Hill won't be too reluctant to leave the Knights of Justice... He did what he should do. If others don't appreciate it, Hill won't have the leisure to meddle in others' affairs.
However, the paladins of Tire are just stubborn, not stupid.
But if the Temple of Helm wants to leave, remember to ask them to be thorough when moving..." Linn thought for a while before replying, "I just need to remind them first that we have a very bad relationship with Neverwinter City. If they have to go there,
place, Aglaia will no longer accept the church of Helm to enter.
We respect the guardian god, but we will not lose our self-respect for the sake of respect for the god... If Helm has any dissatisfaction, let him ask Corellon."
Oster couldn't help but laugh. The identity of the lord was too unique... With the bloodline of the Elf Father, no one dared to ask him to be respectful to other gods.
He happily agreed: "No problem, just leave it to us."
The Elven Crusaders are originally composed of the most loyal believers of the Elven Gods, and they all respect and trust Corellon... Even if he is the chosen one of the Swordsinger, Oster still regards himself as a subject of Corellon.
Honor.
Therefore, for human gods like Faerun, being able to maintain a superficial respect is the result of their great restraint. The only foreign god they respect is of course Aglaia.
Aglaia is a city blessed by the elven gods. The elves who come here from all over Toril are basically loyal believers of the elven gods.
Otherwise, few elves would choose to live in a multiracial town with more rules than pine needles.
Therefore, many elves who settled in Aglaia later did not quite understand how Linn, who was deeply trusted by Hill, chose to become the favored one of the singer. It is not like there are no gods that bards believe in in the elven pantheon.
But the city guards never said anything. They still remembered how Linn left the Isle of Evermeet. It was good that he could still maintain his faith in Corellon... The elves have very good memories. What did they do when they were children?
Of course, the stupid things are still fresh in their memories... Except for a few who are older and more prudent in their work, most of the city guards would bow their heads and sneak away with guilty conscience when facing Lin En.
Although Oster has never done anything stupid like that, he also has a stupid younger brother, so he is usually not willing to face Linn. However, as the leader of the city guard, the city defense officer and peace officer of Aglaia, he just left
When you come back from fighting outside, you should say hello to the mayor!
That's why he came here...Brother Gal was not at home! Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so embarrassed when talking with them!
Fortunately, with the Helm Temple to communicate with, Oster felt that the communication mission with the mayor had been successfully completed, and he had received a formal job, so he could go back to the military camp and let those guys do their work.
He said goodbye to Linn happily and left briskly.
Lin En looked at Oster's back, which was full of joy, and was a little confused: What did this guy want to do when he came to see him?
He didn't think that Oster, who had just returned, would know about the hookup between the Temple of Helm and the City of Neverwinter. It was obviously a topic he picked up later, and it was even more impossible to come to chat with him, and it wasn't his cousins.
Linn turned around and returned to the mayor's office, where a few Gals were lying lazily: Linn was called away by Hill before they finished bragging, so they have been waiting for him to come back.
Lin En pushed open the door helplessly and looked at her cousins with a wry smile. He had to listen to the whole audience!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked Hill about what happened on the battlefield. He had to make sure he didn't get carried away by his cousins' nonsense.
He took a gentle breath, and walked in with a cold face amidst the cheerful greetings of several Gals. He probably couldn't do anything else today...
Hill who left didn't know that Helm Temple wanted to seek death, but he really didn't care.
The current atmosphere in Neverwinter is very strange, and it is impossible for the people in the Temple of Helm not to notice it, but if they still want to play the game of wealth and wealth, Hill will not stop them from taking the risk.
Not to mention, on the surface this is indeed a good thing that can greatly increase the number of Heim believers... The beliefs of the Toril people have always been very flexible... Tyr, who is far away, and Heim, who is close at hand, most of them
Everyone will choose Heim.
The civilians of Neverwinter need temples, and the nobles also need thugs and bodyguards, so they must welcome the return of the Helm Temple... After being really abandoned by all temples, the nobles of Neverwinter have no shame in their faces.
But King Bane doesn't necessarily think so...Whether he has problems or not, one thing is certain, this king is looking for an opportunity to make his power supreme in Neverwinter.
He used Nese's arcane mages to expel the good-aligned mages, and then transferred the fight between the nobles to the temple... On the surface, it seemed that the king had been asking the nobles to pay the two
Take out the resources of the temple.
It's just that his impassioned speech was ignored by the nobles. Therefore, even if those paladins left Neverwinter City, they did not have any resentment towards King Bane. They just lamented that the royal family of Neverwinter City had lost its authority after the death of the old king.
Many people can understand even Bane's shameless approach of asking other cities in the North to bear the cost of Neverwinter's war... If he can't control his king, he can only choose to be shameless.
However, Hill knew very well how much food the Neverwinter royal family had stored during the previous period... Benn must have raised a large army.
But every position in Neverwinter City has been occupied by nobles. Even if he is the king, he can't grab a few, let alone the more he wants.
So this large-scale rebellion in Neverwinter is bound to happen... It's just a reason to change from the paladin who hurt Tyr to the paladin who hurt Heim!
But this has nothing to do with Hill, who arrived in the Hidden Forest and circled around the outside to find a suitable central location for the forest array... He had done what he had to do, but it was a pity that it was hard to persuade the damn ghost with words.
Hill folded his arms and observed the forest below. How many years has it been since the Mithril Elf came back?
Living trees that allow elves to teleport freely are scattered throughout every area. This kind of plant must have been carefully cultivated by someone to grow so luxuriantly.
The common weapons and armor materials of elves, such as creeping wood and salam wood, were planted among rows of pine and oak trees. It looked like they were at least one or two hundred years old... Hill estimated that these guys originally planned to come back to see the mainland.
The situation of the Upper Elves: If Faerûn returns to normal, they may abandon their fortresses on the outer plane and return to Toril.
As a result, we just saw the elves retreating.
The helpless Mithril Elves simply hid here and waited for the opportunity... Anyway, the hidden forest also contained some golden elves, and there was also a group of wood elves living on the outskirts of the forest. If there was any need for a battle, they could stand in the open.
superior.
They hid quite well... maybe because this forest is not worth competing with the elves in the eyes of many people, so no one has discovered them for so long.
But Hill knew after seeing the Serang wood. This kind of tree that grew in the kingdom of Avandor, where the elven gods lived, disappeared in Toril during the Elf Crown War... The trunk of this kind of tree is the most
One of the best shipbuilding raw materials...the golden elves' fast sea ships that are difficult to reproduce are made of it, and the fallen branches can also be used to make bows, arrows or crossbow bullets with the spirit of the trees.
In fact, this kind of tree was very common in the forests where the elves lived in the past, but when they began to fight each other in order to compete for power, the Serang trees on the continent of Toril withered away... The disapproval of the gods was obvious.
It's a pity that the elves are best at pretending to be deaf and dumb.
Therefore, only the mithril elves who disapproved of the war at the beginning and simply stayed away from Toril still had the seeds of this tree in their hands.
The creeping trees are common trees in Toril, but only the elves attach such importance to them. Generally, as long as you see creeping trees all over the forest, you can be sure that there must be elves settling in the forest.
There is also a special place in this forest, which is the artichokes that are everywhere in every corner. This 3-meter-high plant is the raw material for thistles to weave thick cloth armor... but it is not common in Faerûn. After all, this plant is very harmful to the growing environment.
The requirements are very high, and only elves will work hard to cultivate them...but many elven races that have given up on arcane magic no longer remember this skill.
Speaking of which, many elves have forgotten how to cook with thistle fruits, right?
Hill sighed softly. After seeing the hidden forest, he could understand why these mithril elves gave up contact with other elves.
The lives of elves are long enough. It is very likely that these elves who returned to Faerûn still carry beautiful memories of the past... Even if they know that the Crown War must have caused harm to the elves, they absolutely cannot believe that they will face such a thing.
The absurdity of right and wrong.
There are many things and many memories that only they themselves know.
Before they left, the elves were still the most powerful race in Toril. When they came back, the elves couldn't even stand in Faerûn.
I really don’t know how the mithril elves feel when they want to go back to their hometown to find a way out, but can only stay silently in the hidden forest for hundreds of years.
