Bab 40: Chapter 40: The Call to the Forgotten Realms

The Nexus was aglow with soft light as we emerged from the Chamber of Echoes. One by one, the crystal paintings went dark behind us, their vivid images still. The Heartseed seemed heavy in my hands, its light steady but with a hidden urgency in it. The truth that we unraveled hung hard on my mind, a shadow further cast across the slim peace obtained.
