Can someone point me to ANY sources of information about this kingdom? I mean, aside from the tiny bit we learn from the Crown Wars.
There is VERY little available about this Realm, any help at all would be appreciated. I heard that it had/has some connection to Hellgate Keep? Not sure about that though. I also remember something about someone wanting to pillage ancient Miyeritar graves, but I don't remember where I saw that either.
Any and all help would be GREATLY appreciated.
---Thanx, Mark

Aside from the lore, it's a great book anyway. |

I love books that are both story AND sourcebook combined. I just finished Evermeet, which was fantastic as both a novel AND an Elven history. I also just fished Elminster in Hell which gave lots of juicy snatches taken from everywhere AND everywhen in the Realms. Those are my favorite kind of stories, so if this is more like that then I'm really looking forward to it.
Thanks All for your input. |

I loved those books, too, and for the same reasons! Lots of tiny tidbits and details of Realmslore... if you have already read the whole 'Elminster'-series, I can also warmly recommed Ed's 'Cormyr: A Novel' (which I consider to be the BEST FR novel so far - both in terms of lore and content). Actually, I snatched a lot of details and history (=hand-outs :) from that book for my Cormyr-campaign  |
