At this point, we must talk about the history of the continent of Faerun.
At the beginning, the continent of Faerun was just a small world. There were no outer planes or crystal wall systems, only a simple material plane.
In this material plane, native races such as elves, dwarves, and humans maintain a relatively high dominant position.
Some small races like trolls, goblins, and goblins are seeking the continuation of their race in the wilderness.
Until later, the first group of "outsiders" from the continent of Faerun arrived.
This group of people have white wings behind them, their appearance is sacred and noble, and every move they make reveals holiness.
And they call themselves angels.
Since their advent, they have been vigorously promoting the doctrine of light and praising their creator, the God of Light.
The Human Empire is the country most severely persecuted by the belief in the God of Light. Almost most of the people and nobles in their country believe in the God of Light.
The power of the God of Light even changed the world's power system and created two professions that are most suitable for human career change.
Priests and Paladins.
These two professions are quite magical.
As long as you maintain your faith in the God of Light, you can gain a special power called the Power of Holy Light, which can cause extremely high additional damage to all chaotic evil creatures.
Not only that, the power of holy light can also heal most injuries.
It is precisely because of this that the Church of Holy Light has become the state religion of many human countries.
However, good days are always short-lived.
The arrival of angels may bring some opportunities to the world, but it will also bring disasters and pain.
About a few decades after the angels came to the continent of Faerun, demons representing the Endless Abyss and devils from the Nine Hells began to arrive.
Demons are easier to deal with. Although they are also evil creatures, they have their own set of rules.
Demons, by contrast, are quite different.
They are inherently chaotic and evil creatures, devoid of any sense of right and wrong, and know only to kill and devour. The arrival of these two races brought untold suffering and disaster to the continent of Faerun.
Then, there's the Mind Flayer.
The mind flayers are close relatives of the illithids of the Underdark, but their unique parasitic method of reproduction makes all intelligent life feel threatened.
So at present, the entire continent of Faerun is trying every possible means to conquer the Mind Flayer Empire.
Jaheira represented the elves and humans to investigate the lair of the Mind Flayer.
As for why not send more people?
That's because the various races on the continent of Faerun are facing huge threats.
On the one hand, the demons of the abyss are constantly invading and trying to destroy the world.
On the other hand, the devils are also secretly plotting conspiracies in an attempt to control the world.
In addition, various evil forces such as evil cultists and necromancers are also ready to move.
Under such circumstances, the forces of various races were dispersed to various battlefields and could not concentrate on dealing with the mind flayers.
Therefore, Jaheira had to take on this important mission alone.
Moreover, the legendary strongmen are not cabbages. Each of them is the top combat force in each race, and they each shoulder different responsibilities and missions.
Legendary warriors need to protect their homes and resist foreign invasions.
Moreover, every legendary strongman has his own pursuits and it is impossible for him to give up everything to serve the country. They also need their own private time.
Especially those legendary wizards, it takes them years or even decades to conduct experiments, and you can't call them during this period.
In short, they all had their own things to do and couldn't get away to investigate the Mind Flayer.
As a leisurely legend, Jaheira didn't have too many concerns, so he was assigned the task of investigating the Mind Flayer.
"Alright, anyway, the other side doesn't have any hostility towards us at the moment, so after a short rest, we will return to base camp to report our findings."
"The current strength of the Mind Flayer clan has exceeded previous expectations. They even have several legends within the clan. We must encourage everyone to pay more attention to the Mind Flayer clan."
After Jaheira calmed the team members, he began to boost morale.
As a legend, her words are still very effective.
Those Sanctuary-level adventurers chose to follow her arrangements and began to heal their injuries.
But they didn't notice that while they were treating their injuries, Jaheira was staring at the entrance of the tent with a complicated expression, wondering what he was thinking.
————
The second day.
Jaheira led the team members whose injuries had been controlled to bid farewell to Krober.
"In that case, I won't keep you here as a guest. I hope you can complete your mission successfully."
Krober was familiar with some of the etiquette of the world of Faerun, so a perfect farewell ceremony for human nobles became the last scene of his farewell to Jaheira.
After leaving there, Jaheira began to plan the route according to his memory.
"This must be the southwestern edge of Michael's Forest."
"Next, we will head north. Once we leave the boundaries of this forest, we expect to reach the northern coastal area."
Jaheira spoke to his companions, pointing north.
She paused, then continued:
"From what I know, there should be a human city-state called Samaras in that coastal area."
"Aside from Samaras, the nearest city might require us to travel a considerable distance. Therefore, we must find the Harpers in that city and report everything we have witnessed without reservation."
All the content that Jaheira mentioned, in addition to the situation of the Mind Flayers, naturally also covered their encounter with Kroeber and his group.
However, Jaheira and others' attitude towards Krober and his group was relatively fair and objective.
Take the strength of Krober and his group for example, they are quite powerful.
One can clearly feel the well-trained military appearance and discipline from their grassroots soldiers. It is obvious that they are a team full of order.
Moreover, they treated Jaheira and others quite friendly, without showing the usual hideous appearance of evil races.
You know, whenever a situation like this occurs - that is, when a new race or an emerging force is discovered, when various countries conduct preliminary diplomatic assessments, the opinions expressed by those legendary figures who first come into contact with these new forces often account for a large proportion.
After all, they are the ones who have truly experienced each other's characteristics firsthand, and their opinions are undoubtedly of extremely high reference value.
