The surge of faith sent the human allied forces into jubilation, and the human gods who repelled the orcs indeed welcomed another division. The gods of the good and evil alignments turned their hostility towards each other, unable to influence the divine battles in the Untamed Plains.
Shanthea and Lolth invaded Sylvanus's divine realm, and the addition of Talos, the Storm Lord, made Sylvanus even more precarious! The moment Corellon joined the fray, the elven goddess Angathys also quietly appeared from the divine realm of the Oak Father!
The pressure was now on Shanthea!
Sylvanus, holding the home-field advantage, gradually turned the tide. Angathys's defense and wisdom domains perfectly merged with Corellon's, resisting the erosion of Lolth and Shanthea while also blocking Talos.
Sylvanus, freed from his engagement, immediately steered his divine realm to crash into the nearby divine realm of Shanthea!
The fierce collision of the two powerful divine realms caused the avatars of the weaker divine powers who were still fighting to be annihilated. Malar, the God of the Bloody Desire, was the first to withdraw from the war under the combined assault of the nature gods. Before his avatar dissipated, he took with him Larah, the unicorn goddess of lesser divine power.
The combined efforts of Guhlan Storm, the god of the northern rangers, Nupharon, the lion god, and Shionlia, the goddess of new sprouts, gave them the upper hand in their battle against Auril, the Frost Maiden! The forest goddess Mielikki and the sea goddess Umberlee, both of middle divine power, were evenly matched, but Umberlee had no need to exert herself for Talos. The subtly observing elven gods cast glances that made Umberlee uneasy, forcing her to consider a retreat.
Sylvanus's divine realm forcefully pushed into Shanthea's divine realm, and the petitioners charged towards the enemy under the encouragement of their two main deities.
Shanthea no longer had to expend energy to eliminate the suppression imposed by Sylvanus's divine realm rules on her side. The roles of prey and hunter were reversed at this moment.
Dense tree roots wound and coiled, gripping Shanthea's trembling divine realm like chains!
In the temple, Shanthea's true form, hidden behind layers of protection, felt a sudden jolt of fear. The World Tree easily found her hiding place, and the powerful divine avatars who were engaged in battle were moving the battlefield towards her location.
At this moment, Selûne was entangled by Mystra, who had arrived unannounced, while Shar watched the waiting Yeghon before her and reprimanded, "I thought we had reached an understanding. What made you change your mind?"
The Recorder of Death remained silent, his bony hand, adorned with gem-studded rings within his black robe, ignited with pale flames. Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, Shar had no choice but to return to her divine realm, ignoring Shanthea's plea for help.
Talos had no intention of advancing or retreating with Shanthea and Lolth. Seeing that the tide had turned, the opportunistic Storm Lord struck back, killing Shanthea's last avatar and absconding with all the residual divinity before leaving the Untamed Plains.
The young Dawnlord was no match for the old schemer. He did not last long and followed in Shanthea's footsteps, leaving all his avatars behind in the siege of the three powerful deities.
In the sky, a star shone brightly, almost eclipsing the sun's radiance! Then, this shining star disintegrated, turning into a meteor shower that streaked across the sky.
Lolth did not have time to mourn Shanthea's demise before a crisp cracking sound reached her ears.
The black-haired girl moved as if no one was there, directly approaching the Dawnlord's true form and saying softly, "Don't worry about Tha being lonely. I'll send you to accompany her."
Lolth struggled to resist. He had lost all his avatars and was at his weakest. The slender hand pierced Lolth's chest, and from the dimming divine fire, she extracted a brilliant divinity.
"Lord Yeghon, it was a pleasure cooperating."
Tykhe, throwing out the divine portfolio of dawn, chuckled, "Lolth's church has not yet disbanded, and Amanator can seize the faith during this opportunity."
The divine portfolio of dusk in Yeghon's hand merged with the divine portfolio of dawn. Amanator, the ancient sun god, awakened from his residual consciousness within the divinity. This sun god, rumored to have been completely annihilated, reappeared in the guise of Lolth!
As for the remaining divine portfolios, they were all Tykhe's spoils. Among them, the divine portfolios of birth and spring overlapped with Angathys. It was expected that Corellon would not mind exchanging Shanthea's divine portfolio of fertility for them.
The divine portfolios of vitality, rejuvenation, and self-protection formed a linkage with Tykhe's existing divine portfolios, thereby strengthening her divine portfolios of health and protection.
The faith line connected to Lolth showed a brief fluctuation, but the gods were all drawn to the commotion on Mount Celestia, attributing it to the Dawnlord's extreme weakness.
Sylvanus, who possessed both the divine portfolios of nature and earth, moved his divine realm to Mount Celestia. With the cooperation of Tyr and Corellon, a giant oak tree replaced Mount Celestia's position. The Nine Layers of Mount Celestia transformed into nine massive independent planes, supported by the oak tree. Corellon, stimulated by the primal force, broke through that barrier and became an ancient god unbound by faith!
At the exit of the Underdark, Eilistraee thanked the reincarnators for their help and set off to congratulate her father on his promotion.
The black-haired girl appeared quietly and said softly, "It's time for us to go too."
An invisible barrier surrounded the siblings. "What happens next is not something you can participate in. Do not come to this world again until the situation calms down. If Ao discovers our relationship, he will never let you go."
Lin Su nodded, "His reach cannot extend that far. Reincarnators have their own rules. He will not target us openly. Even if he becomes a Great One and ranks among the Overlords, the Main God Space will not be his sole domain. We still have a way out."
"It is still unknown who will win. To be safe, we cannot touch any more missions related to this world."
Lin Xiang felt a little awkward and scratched her head, saying, "You should be able to use these."
The divine portfolios of creativity, motion, and youth left by Lolth were unceremoniously thrust into Lin Su's hands.
"Next time, I'll take you somewhere to meet my sons. Don't worry, I won't let you suffer any losses."
Lin Su was stunned, "Ha! You have sons! And plural! More than one!"
"This is a long story, you wait for me to tell you slowly."
The power of the Creator God guided the reincarnators back, and Lin Xiang's figure disappeared from the world of Faerûn, heading towards the boundless, vast sea of stars.
As the nominal main god of Eilistraee, Tykhe took the initiative to transfer the Underdark maiden's divine realm to the newly born Mount Celestia—Asgard.
The exchange of divine portfolios went smoothly. Angathys needed the human divine portfolios of birth and spring to perfect her domains. At the moment of Shanthea's fall, she could absorb many of Shanthea's followers. With the help of Mielikki, the forest goddess who obtained the divine portfolio of orchards, they could firmly dominate the agricultural domain.
