The blinking Eye of True Sight pierced through the blizzard-shrouded dome and saw the brand-new rotting-skull staff standing in the center of the Labrinthian ruins.
In the old adventures, the lord completed the exploration of the ruins and took back the Rod of Magnus, and the ancient tomb became ruins.All the underground caves collapsed, and the ruins were buried by thick ice and snow.Only the bare high platform of the ancient Dragon Worship Sect remained.
The Rotting Skull Staff was inserted in the middle of the Dragon Altar, and it was firmly guarded by a scarlet magic shield similar to that in the Nightcaller Temple.A distorted light and shadow can be seen through the magic wave, which is the realm of nightmares.
"Master, how do I get in?" Shulia, the angel of judgment, stood in front of her and asked.According to her temperament, going straight to the point is the best solution.And just like the Goddess of Light, Meridia's natural rejection of heresy, similar negative and distorted projections will arouse the hostility of angels.
"Don't worry, let me give it a try." As he said, the lord took the Ball of Valmina as a "reward".
The light released by the magic crystal ball actually melted through the snowstorm ball curtain wrapped in the wind of ashes?
"Look, just as I thought, this is also the realm formed by superimposing the 'Dream of Death and Birth' in the Nightmare Swamp, or the Dream Enchantment." The lord held the crystal ball in his hand and walked into the eye of the storm.
With the lord as the center, a walking "hole" shrouded the magic crystal ball as he walked.As if a mysterious passage had been opened temporarily, the lord and his adventure team were allowed to go deep into the center of the eye of the storm unimpeded.
After an unknown amount of time, the Angel of Judgment, Shulia, whispered, "This road is eerily silent."
"Did we walk into Valmina's nightmare unknowingly?" The librarian who accompanied the lord on this adventure was Twilight and Wind Katriya.A renowned adventurer in Skyrim, she is both nervous and excited to venture into the realm of the daedric.
"Master, isn't it a little dangerous for you to do this?" Ice Blood Witch Daniela was always on guard against the magic crystal ball held by the lord: "After all, this is the magical artifact of the Queen of Nightmare."
"That's right." The lord did not refute: "So the purpose of the Queen of Nightmare sending this crystal ball is also to test my 'believe it or not'."
"Believe it or not..." Judgment Angel Shulia seemed to understand: "Because only this 'Ball of Valmina' can dispel the dream of death and birth superimposed by the Rotting Skull Staff. But the premise is..."
"The premise is to use your dragon to rewrite its narrative, my Baron Ximu." Accompanied by the nightmare, the eyes of the skull inlaid on the rotting skull staff are likely to be "dead girl" lights up Scarlet magic vortex.As I said before, if the demon god on the plane of annihilation wants to project a ray of consciousness to Nirn in the present world, he must have a divine anchor.Most of them are statues, shrines, and artifacts.
"That's right." The lord gently raised the ball of Valmina in his hand: "Now it is your divine anchor."
"But it's not enough. My Baron Ximu." The Queen of Nightmare's babble pierced through the magic hood, causing ripples of magic fluctuations: "You still have to engrave the staff of rotting skulls, and rewrite the meaning of the 'Dream of Death and Birth'. narrative."
"What's the difference between 'Dream of Death and Birth' and your 'Nightmare Swamp'?" The lord who asked this question already had a vague answer in his mind.
"'Dream of Death and Birth' has the rare 'calm' of 'Nightmare Swamp', almost dead silent." This is also the answer in the heart of the lord.
"Because there are too many 'nightmare deposits' in your domain. So this swamp is changing all the time. Even everyone's 'nightmare journey' goes from 'not the same' to 'totally different'. It invisibly intensifies the distortion and change of the swamp. So this is the chaos and disorder you don't want to see and the 'nightmare's backlash'." The lord expressed his understanding: "It's like 'the dragon slaying boy, finally Jackie'. The Nightmare Swamp is about to be overwhelmed by nightmares."
"Ah... so you are really immune to dragon plague, my Baron Ximu." Varmina changed her tone: "Then, do you still dare to engrave a rotten skull staff?"
"Honestly speaking, the 'Lord of Thoughts' in the Stone Tomb of Soul is right. I am the biggest spirit devourer in the entire world of Nirn and even in the world of Mundus. My small universe has suffered a long-term power loss, and I have been mentally weak for a long time. The exhaustion has been so serious that the mental power is on the verge of exhaustion. It is like a hungry person who has not had enough food for a long time, and the hunger bursts instantly when facing a gluttonous feast. Compared with Songgard, which is full of Nord spirits, your nightmare swamp is what makes me 'A gluttonous feast without guilt'. Compared to devouring all the Nord spirits in history, devouring your 'deposits of nightmares' makes me have no mental stress and no moral burden at all. The only thing to worry about is A small amount of mental poisoning. And you must know that my small universe can resist most of the mental poisoning."
Just like the heartfelt words of the lord.The "nightmare deposits" that manifest as the Nightmare Swamp are ultimately materialized psychic energy (note).For the lord's small universe that has been short of electricity for a long time, it is basically a bowl of complete and nourishing soup.Don't drink what you don't want!
"Drink?" As expected of the housekeeper, she has already heard the "voice" of the lord.
"There's an old saying: 'A medicine is three-points poison.'" The lord laughed.
"As the master said, from another perspective, 'nightmare' is actually a kind of 'spiritual antidote': it can be used to 'fight poison with fire' in certain critical moments." The housekeeper nodded slightly.
"Do you still remember the 'tempering ceremony' in Huichi?" The lord was not only reminding everyone, but also deepening the narrative.
The librarian Twilight and Wind Cattleya blurted out: "Orcs who follow the "Code of Malacath" must undergo a 'tempering ceremony' before being reincarnated in the next life. They are thrown into the fire, and all the grievances of the previous life will be melted, As grudges against Tamriel are forged and returned, some haunting past-life grudges can be hammered into legendary weapons and armor on the ashes of the ashes beside the ashes."
"That's right, 'do not bring with you in life, do not take away in death' is a must for reincarnation. Just like Alduin, the devourer of the world, the reincarnation of the next life can only be started after devouring everything in Nirn. For those 'indelible Narrative (memory)', each demon god has its own different ways to deal with it. For example, the orcs who believe in Malacath temper new and old hatreds into legendary weapons. The Nords' heaven only accepts the Nords who died holding the sword The soul of the brave. As for the mortals of Mengdas, all the "indelible narratives" will be turned into nightmares and deposited in the swamp." The lord uttered the powerful divine origin of the Queen of Nightmare.
"So it's like this..." Everyone suddenly realized.
Even Valmina, Queen of Nightmares, paid [-]% respect to the lord: "You are indeed the 'last dragonborn'. Your understanding of Mengdas is far beyond that of ordinary people (my lord, please don't sell melons)."
"Actually, it's not a big deal. If I have a chance, I'll tell you the story of 'Grandma Meng and the soup she made'." The lord also smiled and changed the subject: "Why this?"
"After you defeated the undead dragon priest Moloi and retrieved the staff of Magnus, how did the traveler from afar fight Moloi again and take his dragon priest mask What about it? Although wearing the wooden mask of the jailer Warlock can return to the past, but is it true?" It is indeed the Queen of Nightmare.A simple sentence hits the nail on the head.
"As far as we know, Varok's wooden mask can only return to a specific past." The lord thought thoughtfully.
The Queen of Nightmare continued to explore this seemingly "plot paradox" topic in depth: "If the plane traveler did not want to perform a dark sacrifice when he went back to the past, then what is the use of 'Heart of Darkness'?"
"'Heart of Darkness', what's the use..."
For a moment, the lord seemed to find the breakthrough point of the entire main plot without a main plot from the dialogue of the Queen of Nightmare.
