ok well mabey not Bookwyrm, but this is where i came up with that conclusion:
quote: Originally posted by MuadDib
The 'whoopee' in question I believe happens many times but most notably at the end of 'Elminster Making of a Mage'. They both confess they are in love with each other and they make love in this firey ball etc. She then accepts him as one of her chosen.

So yeah, it was an avatar of Mystra I that went (as MuadDib said) "whoopee" with Elminster.
so when was she in an avatar form other than the Time of Troubles? n im not meaning 2 sound like a jerk i just dont know that she ever has, thanks |

Dracandos the Spellsage: when they had sex the first time, which I assuem was in Making of a Mage, she took human form in the form of a mage female named Myrjla. This was not during the time of troubles, this was when Elminster was young, ie like a couple hundred years before the time of troubles. Hope this clarifies that.
And thanks for the help on the other questions
As for whoopee, it was a joke at first. Didn't know it would catch on so quick. Apologies |

Dracandos; As far as I can tell, the whole Mystra/Elminster thing (yes the "whoopee" if you insist) happened before the raising of the Mythal over Myth Drannor in about (i'm at work so there's no complete accuracy here) 200DR.
Hope that clears some things up |

I felt that Midnight, as Mystra, didn't take those memories from Elminster, because it was said that not many in the Realms had heard a goddess of magic crying. I thought that when she saw Elminster's willingness to serve her, including giving up a few especially happy memories, she saw her error and felt very sad because of it, therefore changing her mind and letting him keep the memories. That is just my interpretation of what it said though. From what I've seen, most people believe that she did in fact take those memories, but the scene cuts away once she starts crying. This can be seen in a few ways, and only Ed can answer for sure one way or another.
Personally, I feel as though she didn't take the memories, and her thinking that she had no choice but to erase them just shows how little she knew Elminster and how dedicated he was to her. |

Bingo, Calrond: your last sentence is entirely correct and spot-on (not surprisingly, this is something we Knights have discussed in exhaustive detail with Ed). love, THO |

I must admit just reading over most of these post, that Calrond the New has made an excellent summary in very few words after all of these most interesting posts.
Once more, well said Calrond :D
