The Amber Sword

The three worlds of dreams should be ordered in chronological order. The first dream was that the room he was in should be in the fortress of Babel - the text recorded on the ancient parchment roll by the Secret Bank - so described the fortress: ‘It is in the center of all sides of the heavens and the earth, above the golden clouds of the clouds, carved palaces of gold and jade stone on the clouds, on which the silver folk in robes, the clouds bells ringing and the hymns howling.’ Everything fits perfectly with the scene he saw in his dreams that the eleven tall, handsome humans were supposed to be gods, but could also be some kind of golden ethnicity - the Babel Fortress, though it is a Silver City, but it also has a golden ethnicity - although in this day and age there is only one giant dragon left, in the tens of thousands of years before the destruction of the Babel Fortress there were many and many golden ethnicities on the earth, most of them sealed under the dust of history, just like the ancestors buried in Valhalla.

However, Brando still thinks that the Gods are more likely, and that the Gods have dark blonde eyes, which is very much in line with the legendary description of them. Although the golden eye color is the most famous external characteristic of the golden ethnic group, the black golden ethnic group is very rare. Later on, the Minor people's eyes were almost between amber and agate, like a golden red flame, not solid color.

Besides, based on what was seen in the later images, the Minors and the Gods seemed to have their origins.

As for the three words of truth mentioned in the mouth of the tall, handsome man, Brando had not heard of it for the first time, and Ovina had mentioned that his authority was inheritance and truth, but that authority came from which of his abilities she had not said. Later, when he spoke to Dark Coward occasionally, the eldest daughter of Essex accidentally revealed some information about the truth. Before the Silver Age of the destruction of the Fortress of Babel, and even further back to the first and second wars with the Dragon of Dusk, it was a time when the Gods lived above the earth - a glorious time when the Gods, together with Martha, created Warnde and managed the world, just like the gods in the Pantheon, the Gods belonged to several organizations, the most important of which were the Truth Council, the Arbitration Tribunal, the World Tree Organization (which he doubted was the precursor of the Ring of the World and the Ring of the Sky, Druid), the Landguard and a Gaia will that existed only in legend and had never shown its purpose in front of the world.

It's just that Brando couldn't tell from the circumstances of the time whether the 'truth' in the mouth of the tall, handsome people meant ‘him' or ‘them', and if it were the latter, these people would certainly be the gods.

The second world of dreams should be the destruction of the fortress of Babel, the sixth war, the scene where the Horseman of Heaven and Blue broke through the sky and led to the fall of the stars. The giant dragon running through the sky, undoubtedly the projection of the dragon of dusk in the world, although only a glimpse in the dream, also impressed him. The golden red eyes on the sky were so similar to the atmosphere of pressure he had seen that day over the port of Fatan, he was almost certain, at that time it was absolutely the will of dusk.

The destruction of Fortress Babel ended the age of God, countless books and literature disappeared from this catastrophe, fragments of civilization scattered over the earth, a generation of silver trekking in the wilderness, civilization almost completely crumbled, and then 10,000 years later, a prophet led the Minors to rebuild their empire in the black forest. Although Tianqing's knight is the first generation of dark dragons and leaves an extremely important legacy for the Minors, there is no literature on what this legacy really is. Today's historian mainstream believes that Tianqing's knight should be the earliest Minor, and he most likely leaves behind the Minor family of golden blood.

In other words, the Minors existed on the earth long before the Minors' empire was established, and roamed the wilderness with other Silver folk to reclaim the fire of civilization. This speculation is also in keeping with the development and reproduction of civilization. The establishment of an empire cannot be a day's work. Like the Silver Elves and the Bukas, the Minors' empire also grew in the obscurity of countless years. Their powerful veins laid a solid foundation for the strength of their empire, which led to the later Mardos, who stood above the Vaughn Land.

The third world of dreams revealed some secrets to him. The fragments of these memories may have to be divided into several different eras, passing through the mountains of the clouds, which should be what happened before the first generation of the Minors fled to the Great Plains. After the destruction of the fortress of Babel, civilization and order broke apart, the Minors fled with the people of silver, and the sparks of countless civilizations were lost on the wilderness: ‘The noble people forgot their noble and elegant past, lost on the earth, they fled into the mountains, forests, experienced long years, forgotten everything from the past, and walked in obscurity and thorns.’ It is this passage recorded in the poem of the heavens.

Then civilization sprouted in obscurity, and he saw countless believers devout to altars rising in the sun, worshipping and the birth of superstition, and in awe of gods in heaven, in fact, in awe of order, and the seeds of civilization reappeared in superstition and mystery after thousands of years.

But this history is an ancient mystery in the Orthodox history of Warnd, and some literature from parchment rolls before the Battle of the Saints, in describing this history, without exception, refers to the same word - the Prophet. ‘The Minors appeared on the earth, and a prophet led them through the great plains, building the first civilized empire after today's Four Leaf Grass wilderness, far from Warnd, which was the Minor Empire, which was also the beginning of the age of mortals.’ There is undoubtedly a similar description among the Silver Pokémon, the Buga and even other peoples that existed at the time: the Buga legend documented the ancient string magic, the precursor of modern magic, distinguished from that used by giant dragons, by the teaching of human magic in today's Shining Silver Bay generation by a traveling magician (Brando thinks it should be a traveling magician, because it is very similar to the legendary Matanians, who have the ability to travel to different worlds).

The story of the Silver Elf contains the legend of the prophet 'Halodir', which has even spread to this day. Some legends describe Halodir as an elegant stag as big as a mountain river, snow-white, so today in southern Cruz and Eruin, it is also thought that white deer are the symbol of guidance and that they can lead the lost hunters out of the forest.

These narratives point to the possibility that civilizations were artificially propagated in that era, and these people are most likely Druids of the Ring of the World, because Brando saw in the last few image fragments the scenes where they made monsters and Minors out of the blood of God. The Minors were the last golden people of the last era. Unlike giant dragons and several other golden individuals, the single strength of the Minors was far less than that of their predecessors. As a golden people, they had only two of the most obvious characteristics. They were also golden blood and pupils. Second, they would walk directly into the realm of the golden body after improving their bodies.

But the Minors' young body strength is extremely weak and the average balance of power is far less than that of the other golden ethnic groups, which in turn have a larger ethnic group - once spread over the entire territory of the Maldos Empire and formed dozens of regiments, a population that is beyond the reach of the majority of the golden people.

According to the verses of the heavens,

The Golden People were born from the blood and bodies of the Gods, created by the Gods.

Then everything that follows can be explained.

The Druids of the Ring of the World were once the most important guardians of order in the world, monitoring the spread of black forests on the borders of the civilized world and planting sparks. According to the literature of the Secret Bank, after the destruction of the Fortress of Babel and during the Battle of the Saints, there were two major divisions in the history of the Druids, especially the latter, deriving from a particular group of herders, who followed Odin and established a horrific legion of herders who, after Odin's failure, split underground and, when they emerged once again in the world, changed their face to become a madman's organization.

It will be very different from the reunification of everything that is also a cult and opposite the death of the four temples. The shepherds worship the power of chaos, but it is only power. They are drunk on stealing the blood of God in order to gain the power of God and try to control the whole world, so that the world will think that they are a bunch of lunatics.

But, by the way, when did the tradition of shepherds to make angels begin?

Separate images in dreams seem to give the answer.

If the Druids had used the blood of God long before the division, and that time could even go back long after the destruction of the fortress of Babel, then everything would have made sense. The bloodline of the Gods tends to be cut off after the destruction of Fort Babel, and may even have begun to go downhill before that - Odin had the bloodline of the Gods, but it was not pure, but at that time a bloodline like his and capable of being the leader of an orderly world was enough to illustrate the decline of this bloodline.

The decline of civilization forced Druid, the keeper of order, to choose a different path: to use the blood of God to bring the people of God back to life. But this thought also knows how difficult it is, even in the glorious era, for the gods to create only an ethnic group of gold from the bodies of the Gods.

In this sense, the Druids can be said to have succeeded in creating the Minors - the most distinct people of gold, but at least they are the blood of gold, and in a sense, the Druids of the Ring of the World have taken over the power of God.

That's what he saw in the third world of dreams.

However, Brando thought that the Druids would create a golden ethnicity on their own, and that there were still some nightmares, and he was more inclined to speculate that the Druids were fulfilling the unfinished path of the pioneers. That is, before the fortress of Babel was destroyed, the surviving gods may have begun to continue their own bloodline, but this experiment is likely to be interrupted or failed by the invasion of the Dragon of Dusk.

From the time Tianqing's knight was born, he was probably the work of this experiment, the first generation of Minor people, and the most perfect Minor people.

After the destruction of Fort Babel, the spark of civilization collapsed completely with the myriad literature that had been stored in the City of Glory, and some of the refugees took it out, but most of it was lost in the thousands of years of exile of the Silver People. And the last experiment with the Gods was similarly scattered over the earth, and the Druids, who later survived the circle of the world, may not have been able to replenish the plan by getting a word about it.

And the complete Minor, the Minor who founded Maldos, of whom the blood of the Tianqing knights was passed down from generation to generation, was arguably the purest heir of the Gods until the fall of Odin to proclaim the end of an era.

Brando remembered what he saw in the images of demons created by the Druids fleeing into the forest, and suddenly he remembered something.

The passage hidden in the poem of the heavens, about the end of the age of the Silver People, about the rise of the Black Iron People. And how did the people of Black Iron appear on the earth? He suddenly remembered this famous question, one of the most discussed in The Sword of Amber: the silver and gold ethnic origins of God, and now the Minors have their origins, but the Black Iron People? Historically, the Black Iron Nation was born as a subordinate and slave of the Minor people, the first barbarians in the forests and mountains, and later instilled in the Empire, with its own civilization.

This is the history of the Black Iron Nation.

According to this assertion, the Black Iron People should be native species in the Black Forest, and this seems to be true from the records on the parchment rolls - the Black Iron People were called bastards in the earliest days by the Silver People, the Golden People, because these barbarians who came out of the Forest had the same dark magic as monsters, dusk species, and in the true spirit of order they should be essentially the same as monsters - especially the Black Iron People of that era did not have their own civilization, no language and no writing, and there were monsters in the Dark Forest with similar human forms, and the barbarians did not seem very different from them in all respects.

But the biggest difference between the Black Iron people and the monsters is that they are the true spirits of order, that they can sense the power of the elements under the Tiamat rule, that they can ignite the sparks, that they can develop the elements, that is the most basic characteristic of the people of order.

This is also borne out by the fact that the Black Iron People rapidly integrated into the civilized world in subsequent times and took the torch of civilization from the legacies of silver to this day.

But is the Black Iron Nation really a native species?

Brando's brain repeatedly reproduces the scene where Druids created the Minor people. Those dressed in robes, powerful foremen, they created all kinds of monsters, lightning-wrapped giants, flame-riding monsters, possessing all kinds of abilities as if they were superhuman beings. Hundreds of failed works were killed instantly. A handful of Thesar-trembling Minors were abandoned by them in the wilderness, and some lucky escaped monsters fell into the community of civilized creatures, some causing war and some being worshipped as spirits.

These monsters, they have a common name, called the Angel of God.

It's like Sy, like he's like himself.

Brando shook his head softly and decided to filter these cluttered ideas out of his mind, because there were too many speculations, and some of them were beyond judgment. These confused thoughts were like as he woke up and suddenly poured into his mind, he acutely felt the shadow of the blood of the dark god behind him, that is, this part of the memory because when it came from the blood of the dark god, it seemed that the so-called dark jewel was never as simple as it seemed.

Thinking about it, he looked up at Sidney beside him.
