The Weave

The mystery of the weave is a complicated thing and the future of the Forgotten Realms makes it even more complicated with the death of Mystra. The magic of the Realms looks to change and the face of Toril will never be the same.

Will Heavy Magic Return to the Realms

I have been noticing that with the new 4th edition Dungeons and Dragons and the future changes of the Forgotten Realms. Like the return of the Empire of Netheral the death of Mystra in 1385 DR Year of the Blue Fire, will heavy magic return to the Realms. I think yes, the weave will be more malleable and with the way the current game and future game of DnD is played it should be easy to make the rules work for heavy magic. Now I think this is more true because of the epic magic that is already used. Perhaps they will just call epic magic heavy magic. It will be interesting to see what unfolds.

The Orc King

This is one of R.A. Salvatore's best works and the book that is giving everyone the glimmer of the future of the Forgotten Realms. The Orc King was the most exciting read I have read in sometime from one of the best selling fantasy authors of our time. You will be inspired by what the future holds for Drizzt and his friends.

Drizzt is back in this exciting new trilogy from R.A. Salvatore!

An uneasy peace between the dwarves of Mithral Hall and the orcs of the newly established Kingdom of Many-Arrows can't last long. The orc tribes united under Obould begin to fight each other, and Bruenor is determined to finish the war that nearly killed him and almost destroyed everything he's worked to build. But it will take more than swords and axes to bring a lasting peace to the Spine of the World. Powerful individuals on both sides may have to change the way they see each other. They may have to start to talk. But it won't be easy.
