Chapter 468 1.467 The Seven Books of Darkness and the Apprentice's Revenge
Ember Goblins are evil creatures found on the Isle of Solsheim.It is said to have started appearing on the island after the Red Mountain eruption.This cataclysmic event also shrouded the south of Southheim in ash, killed countless creatures, completely destroyed the Hirstaang Forest, and gave birth to the Burning Dryad known as the Vengeful Spirit.

Although people on the island have found different kinds of "ash builders", the common denominator is that their bodies are all composed of hardened, still burning volcanic ash.According to Auriera Tevani, Master Nellos had inadvertently discovered that "Ash Formation" was produced from the ashes of buried corpses near the Heartstone vein.It is said that the Heart Stone holds a tiny amount of the power of the Heart of Lockhan.Based on this, Nellos deduced that it was because the heart stone had been buried near Lockhan's heart for thousands of years, and the residual energy of Lockhan's heart had penetrated into the heart stone.This major discovery convinced Master Nellos that there was a huge secret hidden in the heart stone.As long as the "Secret of the Heart Stone" is cracked, it is possible to release the huge energy from the heart of Lockhan.You must know that since the reincarnated soul cast by Azura, Nerevain, the elf hero, completely separated the dwarf's tool on Lockhan's heart, the heart quickly shrank and disappeared.There are even unverified rumors that the heart of Lockhan was completely smashed by Nerevarine.This also means that the heart stone that was left on Southheim Island with the eruption of Red Mountain is likely to be the last remnant of the divine power of Lockhan's heart.

"So, I guess it is some experiment of Master Nellos that led to a large number of ash monsters." The lord has already thought of it.

"Yes, my lord." As a member of the Telvani family, Auriera Telvani is more familiar with the past of Master Neros: "Maybe it is also related to one of his apprentices who came back from the dead."

"I guess it's Ildari Sarohiri." The lord's memory has always been good.

"It's her, my lord." Auriera Tevani shrugged: "So in a sense, the 'heart-changing technique' succeeded."

"Master, I am very curious. Why are the people in Tamriel so keen on heart-changing?" This is something Shulia, the judgment angel from the Temple of Colors, can't understand: "The heart of thorns of the Rich people, the heart of Nirn of the iron orcs , and now there is the dark elf's 'heart stone exchange technique'."

"In addition to the mind-changing technique can significantly enhance the individual's ability, from the perspective of belief, this is actually the worship of Lockhan who has been heartbroken." The lord gave his own answer.

"So that's how it is..." Judgment Angel Shulia nodded slightly.

As Baron Ximu who owns the exclusive law of breaking dragons, it is a necessary etiquette for Master Nellos to board the ship in person.

Fortunately, in the lord's cabin, the air is much fresher.As a reward for entertaining distinguished guests as the Romans do, the lord specially ordered someone to cook the Canis Root Tea that Master Nellos likes.

"Ah, I feel the breath of brook wood. So it was planted in your castle garden?" Master Nellos is indeed an expert in tea tasting.

"It's the terrace of the castle. Marina and Faranu have been taking good care of them." The lord who learned everything from Auriera Tevani in advance was not surprised.

"The two Mrs. Gissing who are in charge of the kitchen for you." Master Nelos seemed to be no stranger to everything about the lord.Of course, it is an indisputable fact that the lord's fame spread far and wide.

"Yes, it's them." When talking about his female companions, the lord always smiled inadvertently.

"Unfortunately, not all the Nords treat the 'Grey People' as well as you do." Like many dark elves who migrated to Soltheheim Island, Master Nellos is deeply wary of the Nords in Skyrim .Indeed, as Master Nellos said, those dark elf companions who migrated from Morrowind to Winterhold, Windhelm, and Rift City have not yet fully integrated into Nord society.Otherwise, there would be no such thing as gray areas and gray people.Of course, on the other hand, the upright Nords can't stand the "twisting" of the dark elves.

As the environment of Morrowind has been restored after the cataclysm, more and more gray people of Skyrim are considering returning to Morrowind to settle down.Of course, many of them are only verbal catharsis, and there is no actual action.Looking at the volcanic ash wind pervading Southheim Island and the town of Crow Rock that was almost buried by volcanic ash, one can imagine how much better the Morrowind Province, the starting point of all cataclysms, would be.What's more, these gray people who fled to the sky during the red year and the dark elves left behind in Morrowind have a huge conflict of faith.Gray people generally believe in the three living gods of the Trial Seat.In the current Morrowind, the three living gods of the trial seat who stole the supernatural power of Lockhan's heart were judged to be false gods, and the old three demon gods of the trial seat were regained as mainstream beliefs.All "heretics" who do not believe in the Three Demon Gods will suffer brutal persecution.This also discourages the gray people of the sky.

In addition, I have long been accustomed to the cold air in the sky, the warm stove, and the hot mead and barbecue.The dark elves who have experienced catastrophe, and the memory of the suffering they suffered on the long migration road, all make the dark elves who are content with the status quo will not leave easily anyway.

This is why the dark elves of Skyrim prefer to call themselves Nord (dark) elves.Just like the wood elves who left Valen Forest also like to call themselves forest elves.

"I would like to know more about the black book you found in the Dwemer ruins." After a short greeting, the lord got to the point.

""Dark Magic Sutra: Letters and Skillful Pencils"." In response to the Lord Lord's question, Master Nelos said bluntly: "One of the 'Seven Books of Darkness' written by Hemous Mora, the Demon God of Knowledge."

According to the research of Master Nellos, there are seven "Dark Magic Books" handed down from generation to generation: "Dark Magic Book Untold Legends", "Dark Magic Book: Epistolary Acumen", "Dark Magic Book Untold Legends", "Dark Magic Book: Untold Legends", Magic Book: Waking Dreams", "Dark Magic Book: The Sallow Regent", "Dark Magic Book: The Winds of Change", "Dark Magic Book: Filament Filament and Filigree", "Dark Magic Book: The Hidden Twilight".

"What is the specific function?" The lord was very curious.

"My lord, let me tell you the truth. The 'Seven Books of Darkness' is the domain of the demon god of knowledge, Hermous Mora. I have an unconfirmed guess that the soul of the first dragonborn Miraak is hidden in the Seven Books. But I don't know which one it is." Master Nelos has the rigor of a scholar.

"So, we need to find the 'Seven Books of Darkness' to determine the traces of the first dragonborn Mirak." The lord feels quite tricky (it's okay, my lord, doesn't Tal Rasha also have seven ancient tombs).

"No, my lord. It is enough to find one of them." The dark elf archmage who came from the three major families of Morrowind reminded wisely.

"The Seven Books are an interconnected field." Wu Chen suddenly realized: "It's like a coherent chapter before and after."

"As you can see, my lord." Master Nelos seemed a little absent-minded.Apparently that wasn't his focus.

Before Master Nellos boarded the ship, the lord had already learned more details about the Heart Stone and the crisis facing the Mushroom Castle in Telmixi from Auriera Tevani.

It is said that Master Nellos's previous apprentice, Ildari Sarohiri, is still alive and "wants" to avenge the failed heart-changing experiment that Master Nellos performed on her.If the adventure team sent by the lord hadn't arrived in time to help, Master Nellos' housekeeper would have died long ago, and his tower would have been poisoned and withered.Therefore, in Auriera Tevani's view, the only reliance of Master Neros is the help of Lord Duvakin, the last lord, to thwart the revenge plan of Heartstone Apprentice Ildari Sarohiri.

"Tell me about your heart stone experiment." The lord immediately changed the subject.Decided to solve the crisis faced by Master Nellos first.

"Okay, okay, my lord." This is exactly the purpose of Master Nellos's trip: "It all started with my uncontrollable thirst for knowledge..."

Gently putting down the teacup, Master Nellos recounted the past: "Fleeing from the ashes of Morrowind, my apprentices and I established Telmithlin (Mushroom Castle) on Southheim Island. The secret of the Heartstone was found in the ashes of the volcano. The autopsy of Burnt Spriggan by myself and my apprentices led me to believe that the Heartstone could be implanted in the chest of a human being, giving them great power. Like the Reachers Heart of Thorns. Just when I was considering replacing my own heart with a Heart Stone, Ildari volunteered to perform the operation on my behalf. Now I know that I performed the operation completely wrong."

"Ildari died tragically during the heart transplant operation. When I buried her in infinite grief, she rose from the grave. Only her calming staff and a sedative staff implanted by me during the operation remained in the coffin. Heartstone, later wave after wave of ashen goblins attack Telmixi."

"So, where did Ildari go?" the lord asked.

"Frostmoth Castle." Master Nellos sighed.
