Mystra, Forgotten Realms goddess of Magic, is dead.
For those who, like me, have played Dungeons & Dragons (specifically, the Forgotten Realms setting), this is a major event. I suppose that, in some ways, this needed to be done to get rid of all the superhero-level spellcasters in FR (Elminster and the Chosen of Mystra, for example), but to do it this way?
One can only hope that, like The Dead Three, Mystra saw this coming and had a back-up plan.
For those among you who have no idea what I'm talking about, don't bother trying to figure it out.
And though I had slain a thousand foes less one,
The thousandth knife found my liver;
The thousandth enemy said to me,
'Now you shall die,
Now none shall know.'
And the fool, looking down, believed this,
Not seeing, above his shoulders, the naked stars,
Each one remembering.
--John M. Ford, The Final Reflection
