Nice!

"These things also I have observed: that knowledge of our world is
to be nurtured like a precious flower, for it is the most precious
thing we have. Wherefore guard the word written and heed
words unwritten and set them down ere they fade . . . Learn
then, well, the arts of reading, writing, and listening true, and they
will lead you to the greatest art of all: understanding."

Wow, you must have done some serious compiling of information on ancient empires of Toril. I love the artwork on the covers by the way. I remember wishing I could do something similar to this in the past so that I could run a campaign before modern Faerun (thus why I was glad to see the history of faerun book come out at the end of 3rd edition). I'm downloading all of these now to peruse. Thank you for the work.

Alavairthae, may your skill prevail

Fantastic!! Merry Christmas Snowblood, Merry Christmas all.

Love is a lie. Only hate endures. Light is blinding. Only in darkness do we see clearly.

"Oh, you think darkness is your ally? You merely adopted the dark. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but.. blinding. The shadows betray you because they belong to me." - Bane The Dark Knight Rises

While reading The Shield of Weeping Ghosts, I've become intrigued by Ilythiir... How much of their magic had they left, either intentionally or inadvertently? And why even the most powerful Rashemi witches and wizards could hardly fathom the "traces" of their magic?

Every beginning has an end.

Ilythiir left something in Rashemen? Umm, isn't it a bit far from Shaar?

Didn't they(Ilythiir) find the Node of Evil that became Dun-Tharos?

The Hall of the Portal in Shandaular (a ruined city the Rashemi used as an outpost) was activated through certain Ilythiiri runes.
