"I really don't understand them. We're all elves, do we need to calculate each other like this!" Elistin helplessly realized and covered his face, then hesitated for a moment, and then asked curiously, "Filar, what are you talking about?" , I already understand. But we have already moved out of Jondal, and before we entered Anker Forest, we were still wandering tribes, so can't we help Mileras?"
A cold light flashed in Qin Lun's eyes, and he looked at Elisten with a half-smile, "We can only be regarded as a wandering tribe now, but you also said that we will soon belong to the Ank Elf Court. If the Ank Elf King is not informed in advance, Just help the Sun elves directly, so what will the Anker elves think?"
Elistine's face changed. She was just insensitive to politics, and she was not stupid. As soon as Qin Lun reminded him, he immediately understood.
If the Ank elves learned that they did it without warning and directly helped the sun elves, then they would only think that the Jondal moon elves were stepping on two boats, not settling in Ank forest sincerely.
Anker Forest has survived the third generation of the world tree, so it doesn't matter if it wins over the sun elves or not, and maybe it would be more happy to see the sun elves have bad luck.
Before the relocation team entered the Anker Forest, Mileras asked Qin Lun to help talk to Adeline and Menon. Not only to supplement the guards of the envoys, but I am afraid that they also have the idea of using the Jondal moon elves.
The reason is very simple, if the Jondal moon elves really sent him guards, then Mileras would not tell other elf courts that this was the aid of the wandering tribe, but would directly say that it was the support of the Anker elf court, after all At that time, the Jondal Moon Elf had truly joined the Anker Forest.
"So that guy is so insidious!" Elistin's face flashed with anger, and his previous good feelings for Mileras were wiped out. No matter who knows that he has good intentions but is taken advantage of by others, it will probably not be good again. Feeling.
"It won't be easy for an elven prince sent by the Cormanthor Elven Court to take on the important task of envoy!" Qin Lun held back his smile, and took the opportunity to put eye drops on Mileras, "Elisten, that scoundrel of Mileras He is treating you as a fool, so stay away from him in the future."
"Hmph, he's a bad guy, and you're not a good guy either!" Elistin rolled his eyes and stood up angrily, but just as he opened the tent, he remembered something and turned around and said, "By the way, Ed Elder Lin asked me to tell you that Anker's elf king, Tynquilas Nightstar, will meet us at the edge of the forest tomorrow afternoon, and you will also show up at that time, so don't lie in the caravan and be rude."
"The Elf King of Anke came to greet him in person?" Qin Lun raised his eyebrows habitually, and praised in a low voice, "Heroes come out of troubled times! I didn't expect that there would be a hero who is better than King Testir in Anker Forest." Lord, is Faerun continent about to usher in a new era?"
There were about 5,000 Jondal moon elves preparing to migrate to Anker Forest. Excluding the wounded in the first migration team, the dead who were taken away by human bandits and killed by orc cavalry accounted for nearly 30% of the total.
Of course, the orc cavalry was instigated by the Zhentarim Society, and its main target was the Sun Elf Mission, and it was unlikely to attack the Moon Elf's relocation team in the later stage. The human thieves suffered heavy casualties in this battle. Many thieves and mercenaries were wiped out. It is estimated that they will not dare to be so unscrupulous in the future, and the intensity of the attacks should decrease.
At least 4,000 of the 5,000 Jondal Moon Elf tribes will reach the Anker Forest safely. Of course, due to the oppression of the Magic Cup Royal Court over the years, these Moon Elf tribes lack weapons and supplies, and the Anker Elf Court needs to work hard to settle down. them.
For the Anker Forest, which is much smaller than the Jondal Forest, this matter has advantages and disadvantages. The migrated Moon Elf tribe was originally the Jondal royal family, and most of the elves inherited from the clan were legal professions, including high-level mages and druids, which can be said to be the essence of the Jondal elves.
At the beginning of King Testir's ascension to the throne, he used gentle means to win over descendants of the former royal family such as Elistine, and tried every means to get the Moon Elf tribe to move back to the Magic Cup King's Court.
However, in the later period, because the second-generation world tree of the Jondal Forest was entering a period of extinction, he had no choice but to join the Green Elf Presbyterian Council and start using tough methods. It's a pity that it's up to people to plan, but it's up to God to make things happen. The recruitment of Anker Forest made the Moon Elf Tribe make a decision to relocate instead. Because of Qin Lun's intervention, not even the royal descendants of Elistine's line were left behind.
The addition of the Jondal moon elves to the Anker Forest not only means that there are more than 4,000 more elves, but also means that the Anker Elf Court has unified the Seopia heritage and formed a new Theopia Elf Court.
With the addition of a large number of high-level legal professions such as Adeline and Menon, the current Anker Forest is actually not weaker than the Jondal Elven Court in its heyday. If they form a group of forbidden curse mages, it is enough to destroy any middle-level human kingdom.
Of course, apart from the advantages mentioned above, joining the four thousand Jondal elves also has disadvantages.
In terms of forest area, the original Tethyr Forest was split into Thorn Forest, Anker, Winter Forest, and Jondal Forest. Anker Forest was the smallest of them, only about half the size of Thorn Forest. One-third of Sen, and less than one-tenth of Jondal.
However, the small Anker forest currently has more than 7,000 moon elves and more than 4,000 green elves, and its population is close to saturation. It is not as sparsely populated as the other three forests. After adding more than 4,000 Jondal moon elves, hunting alone would definitely not be able to support so many elves.
There are only two ways left, do you want to start trade with humans, supplement forest production with business, and feed more than 16,000 elves. The other way is to expand outward. The larger the territory, the richer the products, the lower the population pressure will naturally be.
It's just that in today's Faerun Continent, the rulers are humans, not elves. The Anker Forest is located in the Kingdom of Sespets. If the Anker Elves walk out of the forest and expand their territory to the plains, then war will be inevitable.
The kingdom of Sespetz is actually larger than the two major human powers in the west, Tethyr and Calimshan. The kingdom is adjacent to Tethyr and Calimshan to the west. These two countries are powerful and have developed trade. Calimport in Calimshan is the starting port of the Great Western Trade Road.
The east of the kingdom is bounded by the Naga River with Jondas, just on the south bank of the Golden Plain, close to the delta of the Naga River and the Aran River. The Golden Plain is the largest granary in the southern part of the continent of Faerun. The river transportation systems of the Naga River and the Alan River are part of the commercial golden road connecting the Starfall Sea and the Steam Lake in this area.
To the north of the kingdom is the Weihong sea area and the deep flow lake, and to the south is the inner sea of the southern continent - the lake of steam. The Steam Lake is the second largest inland sea business area in Faerun, second only to the Sea of Fallen Stars, and the sea trade is more prosperous than the Sea of Moon controlled by the Zhentarim.
There are three large forests in the Kingdom, Thorn Forest, Winter Forest and Anker Forest, as well as the mineral-rich Rift Mountains and Omraland Mountains. If you just look at it from the map, this kingdom can be said to have a vast territory and abundant resources, occupying a golden geographical location in the southern part of the Faerun continent.
It's a pity that this is just an appearance. Seth Patz is close to the Golden Plain, but does not occupy the Golden Plain. This place belongs to the Kingdom of Jondas. It is connected to Calinshan and Tethyr in the west, but because of the barrier of the Omraland Mountains, it has not been able to enjoy the convenience brought by the prosperous business and trade between these two countries.
It is adjacent to Shenliu Lake in the north, but because of the obstacles of the vast fissure mountains in the north, it cannot get the fishery resources of Shenliu Lake. Needless to say, the three large forests in the country are the territory of the elves, and Seth Patz has not yet been able to enter the forests to plunder wealth.
There are only a few commercial ports in the south that are close to the steam lake that can really be benefited by the Kingdom of Sespeits. It's just that these commercial ports are controlled by several big nobles in the kingdom, so they can't unify the trade area, and the benefits they get are also greatly reduced.
More than a thousand years ago, the Kingdom of Sespets originally belonged to the Kingdom of Zamdas (the predecessor of the Kingdom of Jondas). At that time, the kingdom of Zamdas was powerful, and it once competed with Calimshan for the supremacy of the steam lake. It's a pity that after the Jondal Elf's high-level forbidden spell turned all the northern land into the Vihon Sea, it completely declined.
That's when Seth Petz broke away from the Zamdas kingdom and started to stand on his own. It's just that Seth Paizi doesn't belong to a complete independent kingdom, but a united kingdom composed of nobles, big and small.
Insufficient centralization of power has led to the dispersion of power. Not to mention the inability to pose a threat to Calinshan and Tethyr in the west, even the declining Jondas cannot compete. If Calinthian and Tethyr were not jealous of each other, and Jondalth had Jondal as a confidant, Seth Paizu would have perished long ago.
However, no matter how weak Seth Patz is, Anker Elf can't replace him. Human kingdoms can attack each other, but they will not sit back and watch a certain human kingdom be destroyed by elves. If the Ankh elves really walked out of the forest and attacked Seth Patz, they would eventually be attacked by the surrounding human powers.
Of course, the fact that the Anker elves cannot attack Sespeits does not mean that they cannot expand. You must know that the other two large forests in Sespeets, the Thorn Forest and the Winter Forest, are very close to the Anker Forest.
Among them, the southern end of Winter Forest and Anke Forest are less than 30 miles away, almost just a city away. Although the Thorn Forest and the Anker Forest are farther away, and there is a Thorn River between them, it is very close to the Winter Forest, one is on the east bank of the Thorn River, and the other is on the west bank of the Thorn River. In other words, these three forests can actually be integrated geographically.
The elves of the three forests have the same root and origin. They were all branches of the Keldomir elves, and they were all ruled by the moon elves. However, Thorn Forest and Winter Forest have not yet survived the third-generation World Tree, and Anker Forest has survived the third-generation World Tree. The three forests actually have a unified basic condition.
As long as Anker Forest can treat other moon elves equally and let the royal descendants of other elf courts share part of the royal power, then the Thorn Forest and Winter Forest, which are currently in a state of uncertainty, will most likely join Anker Forest. After all, no one wants to leave their hometown and go to Yongju Island thousands of miles away.
The addition of the Jondal Moon Elf to the Anker Forest is the key to the unification of the three forests. The Jondal Moon Elf was valued in the Anker Elf Court and received good treatment, and even the descendants of the royal family could be allocated some seats in the Elder Council, so the other two forests would have no worries.
Otherwise, the other two forests will not join Anker.
That's why Qin Lun admired the king of the Anker elves—Tynquilas Yexing!
This elf king may have had the ambition to unify all Keldomir elves branches in the southern continent long ago. Only then did they see the opportunity and invite the Jondal Moon Elf to migrate to the Anker Forest. Now he lowered his figure again to personally welcome the first batch of Jondal moon elves who arrived in Anker Forest.
If this guess is correct, then the king's wrist and city palace look a little scary.
In the present day when humans rule the continent of Faerun, the Sun Elf King of Comanthor launched a landmark migration march in order to rebuild the Sun King's Court on Yongmeet Island. The Moon Elf King of Anker Forest restarted the unification of the Keldomir after 20,000 years.
Just as Qin Lun said, the Faerun elves once again burst out with brilliant light after ten thousand years of great elf civilization, and once again opened the prelude to a new era!
