Well I can't find the book. I suspect that it was packed with my daughter's books when she moved. Perhaps GK will drop in and offer some insight.

I have a dream that one day, all game worlds will exist as one.

It's actually a bit hard to say. She spews up blue flame after taking the shape of Larloch and Elminster comments that to get his permission would have been "costly". She then expires weeping blue tears. I guess in simple terms, the Spellplague burned her out.

Ahh... even more intrigued... so it was not pre or post spellplague, but MID. I'll hunt this down tonight. It may not be, but this seems like some kind of gem we can do something with (as many things are until I actually get into the details).

I think it was WAY post spellplague. I think something about Larloch's magic is connected to the blue-fire of spellplague in Eds books. This is based mostly on the blue-fire items. However, perhaps his magical protections link him to the weave and dole out such punishments from those attempting to impersonate him - similar in many ways to Mystra's curse involved with coping another wizard's sigil.

So about a month and a half after the Mystra's Death since it happened somewhere between the 16th-29th of Tarsakh according to the brotherhood of the Griffin novels.

So now this - and things bouncing-around in other threads - has made me reevaluate my theories on the 'colors of magic'.

I was way off-base thinking it is about Mystra and Shar, when really it was about Selūne (Silver) and Primordial RAW Magic (Blue).

We also have red & purple in the lore, so now I'm thinking its more of an 'alignment' kind of thing, then 'schools' or 'types', but not in the way we used to think about alignments - more like how 4e handled 'power sources'.
