But as long as Evereska becomes independent, Sluvender can be cut off from his tentacles on Everesca, and Slvend can be isolated to a certain extent.
If Salvin's tentacles in Evereska can still be retained during this process, and the power will wax and wane, Sruvind will no longer be a threat.
However, if the subsequent development of this projection plane is the same as that of the main plane, then the Salvin Tree Council's wishful thinking will most likely not be successful.
In the main plane, Sluvend became more and more powerful, and Salvin even gave up a large area of land between the two countries to support the founding of Yeerlan, hoping to block Slvend from the territory.
However, this kind of wishful thinking also failed to work. Later, Erlan rose up in the war and defeated Sluvend and became far more powerful than Salvin. Salvin could only lament and sigh, but there was nothing he could do.
Therefore, counting on others is never as useful as strengthening yourself.
Although the history of the main plane cannot be completely applied to the projected plane, judging from the current performance of the Salvin Tree Council, the future may not be good.
If Shado is in charge, if he is determined to be an enemy of Sluvende, he will definitely express his support for Everesca as soon as possible and win over other countries.
In this case, even if Sruvend follows up and supports him, it can't compare to the friendship that happened first. If Sruvend objects, he will become the enemy of the northern countries.
As for the attitudes of the northern kingdoms, Xia Duo is relatively confident in the current era. The Crown War has only been around three thousand years, which is not a long time for the elves.
At this time, most of the elves in the North were war-weary and fearful of war. At the same time, there were also many who established independent countries at this stage. In fact, most of the countries in the North at this time were established after the fall of Arivandar.
Under this situation, most of the northern elves should be supportive of Everriska's independence, except for the remnants of Arivanda.
But even the upper-class Arivanda family who fled to Listar Forest are still elves with their tail between their legs at the moment.
Only Sluvende wants to regain the territory of his homeland. That is because the Crown War has resulted in a lot of unclaimed territory in the North. Sluvende has not actually invaded any country, otherwise he will be tempted by the elves with intentions.
It is very likely that the countries in the North will unite to launch a war of annihilation and completely liquidate the remnants of Arivanda.
If it had been a few years earlier, when the elves in the North were more sensitive, there would not even be a need to actually invade any country. As long as Sruvend dared to show his intention to imitate Arivanda, the country would most likely be destroyed.
Already.
Even Arivanda was destroyed, let alone Sluvender.
But in the main plane, as time passed, Cormanthor even directly shouted "Great Elf Imperialism", claiming to have inherited the glory of Arivanda.
But at this time, the time since the brutal Crown War was already twice as long as when Evereska became independent. The northern elves were no longer too sensitive, otherwise there wouldn't be enough time to kill even a few Elisirs.
This is similar to how on earth, if it was just after World War II, if someone imitated a mustache, they might have been shot directly.
And if in a few decades, the older generation is almost dead, or no longer in power, then worshiping the mustache in public, or even doing what the gangsters did back then, there may not be any punishment, or even
There are awards.
The natural lifespan of elves is longer than that of humans, and their psychological sensitivity will naturally last longer, but as long as the generation that has experienced the war dies, they will easily become insensitive.
In the current projection plane where Shado is located, Sluvende openly expressed his desire to restore the territory of his homeland. In addition to protests from other countries, Salvin, who was the closest, felt the crisis.
As for Irfalan, Shado also learned about it. In fact, Irfalan at this moment is not much different from the primitive tribes. In other words, Irfalan is now a paradise for adventurers from all countries.
Think about it, of an ancient civilization only civilians have survived. So, what should we do with those ancient legacies?
Even if Arivanda searches for it, there will definitely be some leftovers. That is to say, the clouds of war have not completely dissipated, and the countries do not dare to take any substantive actions. The best thing to do is to send adventurers to excavate the ruins.
If it was the era of the main plane, I am afraid that it would have been swallowed up by all the countries even with its bones.
This time, Shado was unlucky to be here and was not able to witness the rise of Elfaran, an ally of the main plane of Netheril.
Of course, it would be nice to be able to experience Everriska's independence firsthand.
…
Athos Manor, in the reception room.
Chateau and Ogus talked about Evereska's past, the situation in the North, the systems of various countries, and even such sensitive topics as Arivanda's influence on future generations.
A person may be able to pretend for a while, but in in-depth communication, he cannot pretend all the time. The answers to all the questions do not actually exist discretely, but there is a thread that connects them all.
These are everyone’s three views and stance.
As the saying goes, "If you don't talk about something, half a sentence is enough." Apart from the sentence itself, it actually shows that the position will be exposed in the communication. Sometimes it may take a while, and sometimes it may only take half a sentence.
Although Xia Duo has not yet reached the point of "knowing the ingredients as soon as the other party opens his mouth", he is not a newbie who has just debuted.
After this exchange with Ogus, he was not sure about the other ten elders, but for Ogus, he could say with certainty that this guy was most likely an idealist.
Even if it is not the case, this kind of "false but genuine" leader will not betray easily. As long as there are no extreme circumstances, he will really have the idea of performing for a lifetime.
In other words, Xia Duo can easily gain the trust of the other party as a "comrade", or in other words, in the process of mutual testing and in-depth communication of mutual understanding, he has already gained the trust of the other party!
"Mage Athos, just this morning, envoys from the five countries arrived in Everesca. What do you think their purpose is for coming this time? How should we deal with it?"
Such a direct inquiry was not from someone he was familiar with or even trusted. It was hard for Shado to believe that such words would come from the mouth of an elf with the status of Ogus.
It's just that this question is not that easy to answer for Xia Duo. At least the envoys from the five countries mentioned by Ogus were something he had not expected before.
Mainly how did the other four countries, especially Salvan, come together with Slavender?
Unless it was negotiated, it would be impossible for them to come together by chance. But what exactly did the four countries discuss?
"Elder Ogus, did Evereska summon the envoys from the five countries? What did they say?"
"I am not responsible for diplomatic matters, but before summoning them, Cartneedt will definitely notify me. He has not notified me now, which means that Cartnedt thinks it is not the time to summon them. Of course, it may also be because of something.
For some reason we have to postpone it.”
At the end of the sentence, there was a hint of worry in Ogus's eyes.
