Chapter 478: Ring of Tranquility
‘Looking for Senil, just relying on Jahira and the others should be fine, but if I also participate in this operation, it is not impossible to get another mythical incentive point from the panel...'
Nohir sat back on the large wooden chair again, then put his legs on the table, held his head in his hands, and swayed as he thought about the feasibility of doing so.
‘…Looking for Senil’s other half in the Shadowfell Underworld… This kind of thing can be said to be very difficult, but it can also be said to be not difficult at all. ’
Senil's true self was lost in the Shadowfell Underworld. It was a quite large area, and it was also the territory of the Night Goddess Shar and the Raven Queen. If he went in and searched blindly without any preparation, he would not be able to find it even if he searched for a lifetime. He, but as Jaheira was a personal participant in the war a hundred years ago and a legendary druid, she must know Senil and know how to find him as quickly as possible.
Therefore, finding Senil is completely easy for Jahira, and the magic letter reported information from two days ago, which means that if nothing unexpected happens, Jahira and the others should have already set off. Falling into the Shadow Underworld, Nohir is unlikely to be able to catch up with this operation even if he sets out immediately.
‘…I missed it again, alas. ’
Nohir sighed helplessly.
Now the timeline of this world has completely deviated from its original trajectory. The further back in time, the more distorted the plots he was familiar with before.
'Forget it, just miss it this time. Anyway, the most indispensable thing in this world is all kinds of monsters and monsters. As long as time goes on long enough, there will be no shortage of motivation points. There are no particularly urgent enemies to deal with now. I have enough strength to protect myself now, so there is no need to worry at all. ’
Thinking of this, Nohir stretched greatly, and then moved his lazy eyes to the calendar aside.
Today is December 27, 1494 in the Valley Calendar, and two days ago, the world of Toril spent its own [New Year], which is the so-called [Feast of the Moon].
When the long night comes and the north wind approaches, the Feast of the Moon will arrive as scheduled. It is a day for people to celebrate their ancestors, glory and death. On this day of celebration, people will gather to share stories and legends, pray for the dead, and prepare for the upcoming Prepare for the coming winter.
The Feast of the Moon heralds the beginning of a new year, and also means that the long winter is coming. In the medieval world of Toril, winter blizzards are no different from natural disasters.
If you do not prepare in advance and prepare enough campfires and food to welcome the cold winter, the shadow of death will come as scheduled.
Because of this, the Feast of the Moon is actually not a particularly festive day. In some areas, such as the Spine of the World Mountains in the north, and the Moon Shadow Sea area which is even further away than the Sea of Swords, people in those places do not regard this festival as a special occasion. Called the Feast of the Moon, call it [Deadwinter Festival] instead.
Even Baldur's Gate, a world-renowned trade capital, cannot completely ignore the threat of cold. After the Feast of the Moon, Baldur's Gate will also be closed for 1 to 2 months.
The gray port will be temporarily closed, and the trading ships that were constantly coming and going will be blocked by the ice. Even the taverns will be temporarily closed. In the next 1 to 2 months, people will avoid going out as much as possible. Peace of mind Stay at home, rely on the food stored in advance, and have a fire to spend this long winter with your family.
Only after the [Midwinter Festival] at the end of January next year will people slowly return to their usual pace of life.
This festival means that half of the cold season has passed. Although the future will still be cruel, the worst period is over. From then on, some shops will open their doors and people will occasionally go out to buy some items that are already in short supply.
But now, only two days have passed since the Feast of the Moon. Although the first snowstorm hit Baldur's Gate last night, there are still some days before the severe cold really arrives.
Therefore, the spacious neighborhood at this time is still bustling with people, and merchants are selling the remaining goods as quickly as possible, and even deliberately lowering some prices.
After all, if they cannot sell the goods in their hands in the last period, then they can only seal the goods in the warehouse and wait until next year to open the warehouse door. By the way, they pray that their goods will be sold in the next two months. Not visited by rats or thieves.
The citizens are also seizing the time to purchase daily necessities for the future, so it can be predicted that in the next more than a week, the city will usher in the busiest, liveliest and noisy period, and then when the real heavy snow arrives, it will Immediate and complete return to silence.
But at least for now, the market in the spacious block is still very lively, which makes Nohill can't help but think of walking around.
In order to quickly improve his professional level, he had stayed in the manor for more than half a month, and his body bones felt a little rusty.
Just as he said, Nohir immediately returned to the bedroom, wanting to change into a set of regular clothes that he could go out with.
After acquiring this manor, he relied on the wealth he had accumulated in the past to replace all the furniture in the manor. He also hired the best tailors to help him design a lot of clothes suitable for various occasions. At the same time, for To facilitate his future travels, he also spent a lot of money to buy an interesting little thing.
Nohir took out a small box from the bedside cabinet and slowly opened it.
It contained a special transformation ring, which he had spent a lot of money to have someone specially crafted. The function of this ring was very special, because it had one and only one function, which was to completely hide Noshir's wings.
This kind of hiding involved magical transformation. When this ring was activated, his wings were equivalent to truly disappearing, and could not be observed or touched at all, but when Noshir needed wings, he could actively change his wings back.
To be honest, the function of this ring was too important for Noshir. Although this pair of wings gave him many advantages, it also brought him a lot of troubles, such as being too eye-catching and being easily recognized wherever he went, or sleeping on his stomach or on a narrow bed.
The bed must be narrow enough to spread the wings and place them on both sides of the bed, otherwise the body would press the wings, and it would be very uncomfortable to wake up the next day, but after obtaining this ring, these troubles were gone, allowing him to enjoy a calm gaze and a comfortable sleep like a normal person.
