Chapter 116: Erastro's Invitation

When Henry returned to the Lord's Palace, he found a beautiful carriage parked at the door, with seven blue and white stars carved on the ornate door, and most importantly, the carriage was not pulled by a horse. As a mage, he quickly recognized the mark on the door, which was the emblem of the Church of Magic.

"Strange, I don't think there seems to be a temple of this goddess in the city." Henry muttered as he walked, he couldn't figure out what was going on after thinking about it for a long time.

As soon as he entered, the butler greeted him, and he leaned into Henry's ear and whispered, "Earl, there is a man named Turn. Thunder. The mage of the Hornblade has arrived, and I have invited him to the drawing-room, where your wife is chatting with him. ”

Hearing the name, Henry subconsciously frowned. As far as he knew, this man was the personal advisor to the Lord of Silvermoon, Lady Erastro, and also the captain of the Magical Guard. Someone with such a powerful background suddenly came, and hopefully it wasn't bad news.

"Got it, I'll go over now. You prepare dinner and remember to be hearty. With that, Henry walked in the direction of the living room.

When Silky saw her husband, she immediately stood up and said to the mage sitting next to her, "Mr. Tern, this is my husband Henry. ”

Turn's hearing this immediately stood up and saluted. "Hello Mr. Earl, I am an emissary from Silvermoon City, you can call me Tern. I really didn't expect you to be so young, you must know that now in the taverns of Silvermoon City, it is rumored that you have captured the city of the Dark Elves underground and stopped the invasion of the Demon Lord. ”

Hearing his words, Henry shook his head with a wry smile. "You've won the prize, I just sneaked into the city of the dark elves and gathered some information. It was the Black Robe of Hyrust who really captured the city. And it was the Kelburns who stopped the Demon Lord's invasion. ”

Turn, smiling and shaking his head. "Anyway. You've got a lot to do. And to this beautiful city. I found that the citizens here are living very well and the law and order is quite good. These are enough to prove that you are a person who values order and goodness. ”

With a smile on his face, Henry said to Turn, in a joking tone, "Oh! Mr. Special Envoy, if you continue to praise like this, I am afraid that I will drift to the sky. ”

"Hahahaha, you have a great sense of humor, Mr. Earl. Okay, so let's get down to business now. I heard you've formed an alliance with Waterdeep? Turn, who laughed, asked his own question.

"Yes, we already made an alliance with Waterdeep a few months ago. But does this have anything to do with Silvermoon City? Henry asked, a little confused.

Turn, with a smile, pulled out an invitation from his body and handed it over. "That's right. When Ms. Erastro heard about your deeds, she was very interested in you personally. She asked me to invite you to the harvest celebration that will take place in the fall of Silvermoon City. ”

Henry was stunned when he took the invitation, although he had already met Lyla, one of the seven sisters of the Northland, he was still very shocked to hear the news. Erastro. Silverhand is a highly respected lady who has worked tirelessly for her goals, dreaming of a city where different races can live together peacefully.

After hundreds of years of hard work, the current Moon City Federation has become the largest alliance in the northern region. Its main towns are Silvermoon City, Fort Adeba, Fort Felba, Dead Snow, Evoren, Demi Silver Hall, Queerva and Sandaba, with a total population of over one million.

After thinking about it for a while, Henry decided to meet the legendary lady. After all, people who can persist in working hard for hundreds of years for their dreams are worthy of respect. And by the way, you can also visit the famous magic school in Silvermoon City. I've heard that some of the more advanced education systems have been adopted there, and if they do do do go back to school, they can use them in their own college districts.

After figuring it out, Henry said to Turn, "It is a great honor to accept the invitation of Ms. Erastro. I'll leave in September, and I'll be in Silvermoon City in about a month. ”

Turn, who had seen Henry's promise, laughed happily. "That's great, I can show you a good tour of the beautiful Silvermoon City. It is full of ancient trees, towering towers and graceful curvaceous stone carvings, and every corner and balcony is dotted with horticultural bonsai. Pegasus carries riders through the sky, music and laughter can be heard in the streets, and there are charming little shops full of maps, books, magical items and beautiful things. ”

Hearing his introduction, Sycodi's face showed a yearning expression, and she raised her head and asked Tern, "It's so beautiful to hear your description, can I go with you to see it?" ”

"Of course, beautiful lady, I welcome you on behalf of Yin Yuecheng." With that, Turn's stood up and bowed. "Earl, since the invitation has been delivered, I won't bother too much and take my leave."

Henry also stood up and looked at the sky outside. "Stay and finish dinner before leaving, I've got a lot of specials in the kitchen to make sure you'll be raving after you've eaten them."

Turn, smiling and waving his hand. "Thank you for your hospitality, but I'm in a hurry to get back. You must know that the beasts of the Moon Forest are not very calm during this time, and they always want to attack the surrounding villages. I'm sorry I'm going to go back and set up the defenses. ”

Henry nodded in understanding. "In that case, I won't do much to keep it, I hope you have a smooth way home." After saying that, he took his wife all the way to the gate, and Turn, who got into the carriage and waved at the two. Then the entire carriage flashed with a strong magical aura and flew directly to the northeast.

Poeti looked at the carriage in the distance, and after a long time turned to her husband and asked, "My dear, I can't wait a little now." It's still months before the day of departure, and I don't know how to spend the next few days. ”

Henry gently took his wife in his arms. "Don't worry, we have to organize people to harvest food and spices during this time. Leave as soon as you're done, otherwise Hawke won't be able to do so much work alone. ”

Poety sighed and listlessly followed Henry back to the living room. Soon a sumptuous dinner was ready, but there was only Lily at the table except for the two of them, and as for Lina, she had now eaten and lived in the Mage's Tower, and only came back once a week.

Seeing this, the butler walked up to Henry and asked, "Earl, what about our guests?" ”

"The guest was in a hurry to go back, so he left early. It's just a few of us tonight, and now we can start serving. After saying that, Henry glanced at his wife, who was still a little depressed. The butler nodded, turned and waved his hand, and began to let the servants serve the food.

Lily soon noticed that Sycodi's interest was a little low, and she glanced at her son and asked, "What's the matter with her, you two are arguing?" ”

Henry smiled and winked at his wife, and Sycody burst out laughing when she saw it. "We didn't quarrel, but in the afternoon a messenger from Silvermoon City came, and he described the scenery there so beautifully. I can't wait to fly over and have a good look now. ”

"The emissary of Silvermoon City? Henry, are you going to go away again? ”

"Yes Mom, Lady Erastro sent an invitation. I'm going to take Sykodi with me after the autumn harvest in the territory. Why are you also interested? Henry asked his mother as he ate.

Lily thought for a moment and shook her head. "Forget it, it's too far. And I'm used to the warm climate now, so I'm afraid the north won't be able to stand it in October. ”

Henry thought about it for a while and thought it was the same, after all, his mother was not too young. The exertion and cold along the way was a big burden for her. After dinner, Henry sent his wife to his room and went to the study alone. He took a map of the north from the bookshelf and spread it out on his desk. After looking carefully for a while, he soon found Silvermoon City on it.

He needed to find a safe and fast way now, after all, Shikodi was just an ordinary person, and she could easily get hurt if there was danger. Take a closer look at Henry's decision to go by water. Sail directly into the Desarin River next to Waterdeep, then cross Taya and sail along the Sebrin River into Silvermoon City. The route is safe and fast, with the only drawback being that the boat can't be too big. Otherwise, it is easy to run aground in places where the river is not deep.

Henry drew the course of action on it and put the whole map away. Then he began to seriously prepare for tomorrow's spells and magic spells, after all, this is a door-to-door negotiation, and it is very likely that there will be a conflict with the people of the Harpist's alliance. Considering that there is such a helper as Robert, he chose to focus on control and protection. When the spell was ready, Henry went back to the bedroom, and when he saw that his wife was asleep, he didn't bother her. Take off your clothes and go to bed.

The next morning, Henry got up early, had a simple breakfast, and went straight to the thieves' guild. When he arrived, Robert was already waiting at the door.

"Let's go now, and remember not to do anything unless we have to." Henry commanded with a glance at the heavily armed leader of the thieves.

Robert touched the weapon at his waist and nodded. "Don't worry, generally speaking, I don't use a knife to solve a problem that can be solved with words. I won't do it first unless the other person pulls out his weapon first. ”

The two men walked down the street towards the secret base of the Harpists League, and after half an hour, they came to an ordinary two-story building. Henry looked up and asked, "Is this it?" It seems to look ordinary, nothing special, how did you find out here? ”

Robert walked over and pointed to a symbol in the corner. "There's a sign of their contact here, and I stumbled upon it at the time." (To be continued......)
