Few years back during a campaign that my friend spent his heart and soul into making for five years. We had a quite scene after a heartwrenching loss and the army of gargoyle armies neared the capital. We gathered once more in the dead woods, tending to our wounds, mourning for the loss of our friends character who was our druid but more so our squad leader. Their were no words given nor needed to us that wasn't already felt onto our fellowship. Our barbarian had lost his relic, his swinging arm but worse was his pride as a warrior. He was the first to suggest to scout ahead during the night. Though he bared many a cut, bruises and marks across his stone like physic, he has never lost a limb before. In his own way, he made pray to his god for himself as he marched across the lifeless. As though the gods themselves have heard in ao's blessings. Our dm made this very moment one truly remarkable. Our barbarian meets with lathandeer face to face. Then as the rest of us prayed, with the rising of the very sun, so to did we encounter our worships. Mythra, elistree, helm, oghma and sune whom weeps with us for our druid. Each of us who were once so broken after a long war against stone and storms now rejuvenated, met with our deities of our purpose in this war and work towards this terrible wars end. Oghma being mine was proud of my little red grunge for my own thirst for wonderment, wanting to know the very world, but more so for keeping our fellowship strong. As for mystra herself was present, she herself told us that for this to end and life itself to return from the brink. Mortals alone will not be enough. Within her palm was the very bone.... of the creeping doom itself, only he as well his powerful dead can turn the tides. Our task now should we survive the coming week is to find dourmingander.....
This was a great video once again sir! Also good job @wretchedlydevine, you did a wonderful job on the goddess voice! Can't wait to see the other ideas you have for 2024 sir!
Woah. This magic goddess is intriguing. I wonder if there is a parallel in real world religion. The closet in Greek Paganism would be Hermes. He is a smart god with many domains of intellect. So he could have magic on top of his other domains. Parallels of Hermes include Mercury (of course), Thoth and even Odin. Maybe they can be gods of magic. It is interesting that the magic goddes puts limitations on human magicians to prevent hubris and abuse. I am intrigued. I wonder if casting the wish spell is actually a dovine intervention with the magic goddess. The actual divine intervention done by a cleric can't be cast again until a week passed by. May that is the deities' way to prevent an overambitious cleric from abusing the power. This does make sense because it reflects real world religious practices. Abrahamic religions have the concept of the Sabbath. That is the holy day where people stop mundane work and worship God. The most famous example is Christians going to church on Sunday. This is a good practice. It is regular enough to keep religion relavent. However it is so common that it takes people over. Too much relion is one's schedule can mess people up. Unless one chooses to be a clergy member, they should keep religion in moderation. The Wish spell doesn't have the week long waiting period. However there are some negative side effects. That is probably the doing of the magic goddes. She probably has her own way of preventing abuse.
lore wise i thought high elves could still perform higher tier magic because the dont pluck from the weave like mortals do they bend and shape it for their uses. that and when they perform high magic it is done n a group/ communion?
She isn’t the Original I believe if I remember correctly , Midnight of Deeping Dale is current Mystra after the Time of Troubles great series I recommend you guys read it…
Yeah, Midnight was the 3rd incarnation. Before that we had Mystryl, then Mystra, and now we have Mystra again, but she’s an amalgamation of all of her predecessors, getting their memories through the Weave apparently
I love this video series of yours binge watched every video the day I discovered this channel, keep up the good work! Here's a suggestion: Through the eyes of a Night Hag.
He isn't. There are a few non-humans who can still do so if they chose and are not under mystra's ban. The elven high mages ,the Terra-seer,and a few other creatures...that I don't think I should mention just yet. You can bet the Elminster is one of the reasons some of these beings.... Haven't done so. Keep in mind Elminster is simply the strongest HUMAN wizard and he was always aware of his betters...🌬️🌀🧙
@@mondric4519 I always thought he could because I mean he is essentially THE chosen of Mystra and if I remember correctly she did give him some special powers. I'd always thought hey he could cast the 10th and 11th level spells it's just he never has or didn't want to.
@@DarksideGmss0513 don't get me wrong. He can. All her chosen can potentially do it. As can the Magister. It won't automatically fail the first try like it does for everyone else. The Sojourner ( from the Erevis Cale novels) is the only person I know of who has done so in recent times...besides .umm..{whispers} Larloch🫢

In truth, 10th level magic, now simply called "Epic" does still function. It's 11th and 12th magic that's impossible by mortals now.
So glad ur back love the vids and ur friend did a great job voicing the great goddess herself
This was a great video once again sir! Also good job @wretchedlydevine, you did a wonderful job on the goddess voice! Can't wait to see the other ideas you have for 2024 sir!
Side note. Elminster and Mystra totally had a canonical fling.
Outstanding work good sir✊🏾
What happens if Mystra ever had a encounter with Tiamat? I would love to know if there was.

Amazing video as always! Always so excited to see your newest creations!❤
Very well done!

YAAAAAAAA ANOTHER VIDEOOOOOO!!! 🩷🩷🩷
Eyy, good stuff!

Eleven High Magic still works
@christoebell ok cause I thought from reading that high elves are the only ones still capable with approval from the gods still cast lvl 10+ spells
She isn’t the Original I believe if I remember correctly , Midnight of Deeping Dale is current Mystra after the Time of Troubles great series I recommend you guys read it…

Now I'm curious, what did Mystra see when Helm raised his visor?
Tears
@@Etherverse28 really? 😮
Thanks. Mystra is just what I needed tonight
You got a new subscriber. Good job on this one. Excited to see mor of you in the future!
oh shit TALOS OR TYR WOULD GO HOE HARD

To be honest I think Elminster might be the only one who could cast 10th or 11th level spells he just hasn't.

@@mondric4519 ah ok.
@@DarksideGmss0513 it's kinda the chosens' job to hold the ppl who still can cast that level of magic in check. 😅
