(ps: This ridiculous name has a high appearance rate in various Western fantasy settings...)
This is a city built by the daughter of [Goddess of Magic—Mystra].
Located in the northern zone.
Normally, due to the [demigod]'s personal management, the security here is undoubtedly good.
Even in neighboring countries and even cults, they are very generous with their treatment.
Even in this [Era of Saint Catastrophe], this place can be regarded as one of the rare safe areas in the [World of Toril].
There are very few bold people who come to try to provoke [demigods] or even the possible existence of [true gods].
And in a certain extremely luxurious palace.
On the floor and walls.
There are all kinds of [Magic Runes] and [Magic Materials].
The bright fluorescence is constantly flashing in it, as if it is interacting with something.
Suddenly, after a slight shock wave.
Against the background of some white thick fog.
The slender figure of [Goddess of Magic—Mystra] slowly walked out.
"Why are you back again?"
Looking at the [Goddess of Magic] appearing in front of her, she is one of the performers of the [Magic Ritual].
[Elminster] asked proactively with a hesitant and puzzled expression:
"The plan failed and the [Saint Form] cannot enter the [Star Ladder]?"
Beside him, several women surrounded by [divine] auras also showed concerned expressions at the right time.
Regarding this.
The [Goddess of Magic] who was slowly walking out of the white mist just shook her head with an ugly expression:
"The plan was successful, and I did reach the [Star Ladder], but [God of Guards - Heim], that guy with a stinky and tough personality, said that it would only count if I brought back the [Slate of Destiny],
Then he drove me down without mercy, even if I just wanted to see [AO]..."
Although she has a good temper.
But there was a bit of anger in his words after all.
[Elminster] who heard this.
After thinking about it for a while, I chose to change the topic.
After all, the [God of Guards] is only complying with his duties.
Can't blame anything.
"In that case, are we going to directly fight the [God of Tyranny], [Lord of the Dead], and [Lord of Murder] next?"
As soon as he asked this question.
The daughters of the [Goddess of Magic] also changed their expressions slightly.
Even them.
After hearing that I needed to fight several powerful [gods] at the same time, I couldn't help but feel a little worried.
The [Goddess of Magic] hesitated for a while, but did not directly deny it.
He just ordered:
"There's no rush yet."
"It won't be too late for me to contact a few more trustworthy [True Gods]."
The implication is that we really need to fight hard.
Get accurate answers.
[Elminster] also felt a little reassured.
Immediately indicate that he understands.
"Okay, then I'll go make some other basic preparations in advance."
"Well, you go down and do your work."
After [Elminster] leaves.
[The Goddess of Magic] looked at her seven daughters, with a soft smile on her face and said:
"Originally, I wanted to end the [Saint Catastrophe] as soon as possible."
"Let [the world of Toril] return to its former peace."
"But now it seems that it is a bit taken for granted..."
"However, in this case, the risk is indeed a bit high."
"But it is also a rare opportunity for you."
"Perhaps you can take advantage of this opportunity to ascend to the gods."
as her daughter.
These seven "demigods" known as the "Seven Sisters of the North", although they are extremely talented and very popular, due to some special factors, they have never been able to "reach the level of god", just like they have always missed the mark.
One foot is the same.
Right now, the appearance of [Saint Catastrophe] is indeed an opportunity for [Seven Sisters of the North].
The "opportunity to ascend to the gods" is too simple and crude. It does not look at qualifications, hard work, or family background. Whoever kills the "god" will be the "successor" of the "god".
If you can't buy it, you will suffer a loss. If you can't buy it, you will be fooled.
Therefore, as long as the opportunity is right, it is completely expected that one or two of the seven daughters of the [Goddess of Magic] will succeed in becoming gods.
Even, it is not impossible to bet on the probability of all [Ascension to God].
in this regard.
As their biological mother.
[Goddess of Magic] can still hold her own.
She can be called the first sister of [Toril World]!
So, listen to what she has to say.
The [Seven Sisters of the North], who were a little worried at first, immediately had a look of anticipation on their faces.
That huge and stable fortress has existed in the world for tens of thousands of years.
After a series of attacks, more than ten huge caves have been opened.
In that.
Although the shouts of death continued, they had weakened a lot.
There are only [Dragon Breaths] and [Spells] that are sprayed out from time to time.
This proves that the intensity of the battle has not decreased yet.
Even the [Dragon God] and the [Elf God] inevitably suffered casualties in this life-or-death battle.
[King of Good Dragons—Bahamut], that huge platinum golden body was forcibly struck with several penetrating wounds that went straight to the internal organs.
[Elf God King - Corellon], his left hand was completely torn apart and became a one-armed form, and half of his originally handsome face was burned to the point of disfigurement.
[King of Dragons - Tiamat], one of the five dragon heads has been completely chopped off, and the remaining four heads have more or less scars.
[Elf God - Goddess of Life - Angelis], all the bones in her body were almost completely crushed, she was too seriously injured and was close to dying, but she left the scene by luck.
[Dragon God - God of Strength and Fire - Carix], the body that looks like [Ancient Red Dragon], but is much larger than that, has fallen permanently, like blood-colored spring water.
[Divine Dragon Blood] is flowing slowly, nourishing the vast earth continuously.
In contrast, before dying, he also killed [Elf God - God of Destiny - Lebilas] and [Elf God - God of Wandering - Femaro], which can be regarded as a great victory.
…
After another round of confrontation.
During the breaks in the battle, I looked at my own side's huge losses.
No matter it was [Bahamut] or [Corilon], they couldn't help but show pain and anger in their expressions.
Among them, there are reasons for excessive losses, and there are other reasons.
For example, [Corellon] is angry about why there are no reinforcements.
Why don’t [gods] from other races show up...
but.
The strong energy fluctuations in the distance are also silently answering the question.
'The reinforcements have probably all been held back...'
