Eldritch Creature's Guide

91st Floor of the Tower, the Floor controlled by the Nesser Dynasty, several months after the siege of the Zephystrand City.

On the 91st Floor, the environment was very similar to that of the third Floor, especially since there was a lot of vegetation. The Floor was filled with incredibly tall trees, and there were countless Trees of Life found at every corner of the Floor. Basically, it was a boosted-up version of the 3rd Floor; thought the enviroment was countless times better.

It was the World Tree that represented all the Elven species that lived not only on the Tower but throughout the entire Cosmos, and it was the greatest treasure of the Nesser Dynasty. All Seldarine, whether they were ordinary elves or those of the highest and noblest standing, Mortals or Legendaries or even Transcendental, felt a connection to the World Tree, whether they were Mortals, Legends, or even Transcendental.

Around the World Tree, a city was built, a city of shining white walls, a city with countless towers, a city that was one with nature itself and surrounded by the World Tree itself. Known as Silvermoon City, it is the home of the Silvermoon Elves as well as the heart of the Nesser Dynasty, as well as the Imperial Capital of the Nesser Dynasty, the Heart of the Silvermoon.

Seldarine people are not always the most creative people around, but this city was named after the Silvermoon Elves, mainly because they were the first inhabitants of the area, and even today, about 70% of the total population consists of Silvermoon Elves, who are still one of the most prolific races of people in the area.

Even though it was the Nesser Dynasty\'s capital, it was quite a small city. Its population was only around 2 million, despite being the capital of the Nesser Dynasty. This was due to the fact that only those of a particular status were permitted to enter the city, let alone to live there.

It was impossible for an ordinary Seldarine to even dream of living within the city if they did not reach a certain level of power, so even the weakest commoners were of Silver-Tier power on the average, and these were people who were never properly trained to begin with.

Additionally, the Imperial Capital of the Nesser Dynasty was home to countless High Elves or Seldarine subspecies that were rarer and stronger compared to ordinary Seldarine elves aside from the Silvermoon Elves. It was divided into several districts, similar to the rest of the cities of the Nesser Dynasty, namely the Residental District, Military District, Business District, Noble District, and Imperial District.

Among the several prominent and important areas, the most prominent and important was the Imperial District, where the Imperial Palace was located. It was the closest area to the World Tree, which meant that the training conditions and environment were excellent.

Despite the Mana Density of the World Tree being so high and such suitable conditions in the area around it, even a fool would be able to become a Gold-Tier just by standing next to it because for it, the Nesser Dysntasy was able to produce countless experts due to these factors.

A great deal of charm and majesty could be found in the Imperial Palace of the Nesser Dynasty. The Imperial Palace of the Nesser Dynasty was majestic and breathtaking on its own. The traditional Silvermoon architecture, combined with some bits of utilitarian design, for a better combination with nature itself. It was one of the most impressive and beautiful buildings of the entire Dynasty and the history of the Seldarine species.

It was noted that the entire Imperial Place in the city was the most highly secured place in the entire city, and that was due to the fact that the Imperial Palace, apart from its official role as the seat of power, also played a secondary role, which was to serve as the last barrier between the World Tree and the outside world.

The World Tree could not be approached directly without having first gone through the Imperial Palace of the Nesser Dynasty, which was the closest place to approach it.

The entire Imperial Palace of the Nesser Dynasty was protected non-stop by the Silvermoon Knight Order and Imperial Magician Corps, which were one of the most powerful military organizations in the entire Nesser Dynasty, together with various Elders of the Silvermoon Species and Nesser Dynasty who were always a top-ranked Legendary Professionals.

It should also be noted that there were also Tree Guardians that guarded the World Tree stationed inside the Imperial Palace, as defending the Imperial Place was considered part of the protection of the World Tree, though in an indirect manner.

In the throne room of the Nesser Dynasty at the moment, one of the most important meetings of the Dynasty was taking place. In the throne room of the Dynasty, Tynardanis Nesser Silvermoon, the Emperor of the Dynasty, was listening to the reports from his Ministers and the heads of the various Imperial Departments and Army Branches regarding the latest developments regarding the plot being orchestrated by the Drows in Underdark City.

It is worth noting that the Throne Hall was a relatively simple building, not modest per se, but it elevated the elven architecture and a sense of nature to another level, even though it was a simple building. As the arched ceiling of this grand hall shimmers with the flickering light, the stained glass windows dance in the flickering light as statues stand on the teak floor.

A golden rug runner down from the throne itself, which was an impressive marble throne of pure white stone with a very simple design, was a very simple design. There was the throne of the Empress next to the Emperor\'s, where Ilroraniel, the wife of the Emperor, was sitting.

Truth be told, the Empress was actually pretty bored at the meeting because she would have rather spent her time studying the secrets of the Arcane instead of listening to the ramblings of the warhawks and other boring things that were said at the meeting.

"So, the conclusion?"

As the Emperor of the Nesser Dynasty inquired with an irritated voice, a few people were taken by surprise when his Perfect Legendary threatened to lash out, causing them to take a few steps back in fear. Though the Emperor seemed more of a model than a warrior, everyone in the room was aware that the man had a great deal of power and no good temper at all.

"Nothing, Your Imperial Majesty. It is clear that the purpose of the Drows was to get information on the new generation of the Mana Weapons because they were tested on the 3rd Floor. Fortunately, because we decided to test the weaponry on the 3rd Floor, we managed to complete the majority of the tests before they found out about it, so the moment of surprise is still partially on our side."

In response, one of the ministers, a very old-looking elf man, with an oversized beard and long white hair, stood up from his seat and used his cane to support himself, as he stood up from his seat. He was the head of the Research and Development Ministry, which was focused on studying and researching Magetech.

"That is good, but this provocation cannot go unanswered."

When Emperor Tynardanis Nesser Silvermoon said those words, light shone in the eyes of several people, mainly those clad in Military Uniforms, who were Generals and Marshalls of the various branches of the Imperial Military, and a few other experts, including the Grandmaster of the Silvermoon Knight Order.

Those people were members of the so-called Warhawk Faction in the Nesser Dynasty as they pushed for more militaristic solutions for the situation with the Underdark. While the Warhawk Faction was never too powerful in the past, after the brother of the current Emperor became one of the Cardinals of the Hall of Kadath, things have changed to their advantage.

Even though the Hall of Kadath was largely neutral and did not participate in conflicts, this wasn\'t going to prevent some of them from pushing for a joint attack on the Underdark with the Hall of Kadath. Even though the Hall of Kadath was largely neutral, there were still a few warmongers that would easily be persuaded to join the attack.

"Have we completed the list of the people collaborating with the Underdark?"

Getting rid of the traitors, who were either cooperating with the Underdark City or selling them information, was the first task on the list since they were working together with them, and the such thing was absolutely unacceptable, and there was no mercy for the traitors.

Afterward, the Head of the Imperial Intelligence stepped out from the crowd and presented a stack of papers to Emperor Tynardanis, who was reading through the documents with a frown on his face as he scanned the papers, especially after he saw a couple of names that had become quite famous.

They included a significant number of people who were of high social standing; some of them were high-ranking officials in the Imperial Military or any other Imperial Organization, and on top of that, there were entire Noble Houses that were collaborating with the Underdark on a regular basis.

"Execute them all. As a result of the highest treason, all those listed on the list must be executed, their families included. Noble Houses will lose all of their properties to the state, which includes all those listed. In the upcoming turbulent times, there is no place for the inner enemies in the state."

In order to carry out the orders of his Emperor, Kaeros, the Head of Imperial Intelligence, bowed lightly to his Emperor and melted into the shadows. As he looked at the list, he was able to tell that the blood night was taking place for the entire Nesser Dynasty, as thousands of people were listed.

"Now, to the next thing. Grandmaster, you will take a portion of the Silvermoon Knight Order and, together with the Imperial Military, coordinate the attacks on several Middle Worlds controlled by the Underdark. Alsoé, initiate the purge of the Worlds where we have significant influence and get rid of all Underdark goons from there."

As soon as the Grandmaster of the Silvermoon Knight Order left the room, along with several other Generals and Marshalls of the Imperial Military, a deep bow was given as they also immediately left the room, because finally there was some action taking place.

"As far as I am aware, even the current Holy Son of the Hall of Kadath has been involved in this mess, if I am not mistaken?"

In response to the Emperor\'s question, the Minister of Foreign Affairs nodded her head in agreement.

"Indeed, but the Hall announced that they won\'t be doing anything because, in their opinion, the situation was nothing that their Holy Son couldn\'t handle by himself. Though Cardinal Zaldidraax wasn\'t very happy that his daughter was caught in that mess as it seems, and he already wrecked up one of their hideouts on the 50th Floor."

This was reported by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, who was a stunningly beautiful young-looking High Elf woman wearing a green dress with long flowing blond hair on her right side tailed in a braid.

It was almost impossible to get a better reaction out of the Hall of Kadath. If the enemies wreaking havoc on the 3rd Floor were of the Gold-Tier, then the situation may be slightly different. It would then be possible to convince the Hall of Kadath to join in on the fight against the Underdark City on the side of the Nesser Dynasty.

"As you can see, this is the end of our meeting; it is time for everyone to get back to their work."

When Emperor Tynardanis made his authoritative order, all of the people who remained in the Throne Room bowed to him and the Empress as they left the Throne Room. Tynardanis and Ilroraniell were the only two people left in the Throne Room, sitting there in silence, not saying anything for several minutes.

"There seems to be something on your mind, dear husband; what are you thinking about, my love?"

Questioned Empress Ilroraniell, her beloved husband, in a soft voice, not really fitting her stern and expressionless facade during the meeting. It contrasted like day and night, but Empress Ilroraniell was always like that; she never let her emotions and thoughts be visible on her face, always retaining her mask.

"Did you know that Yvraine has apparently chosen suitor for herself? She has chosen the one who is the current Holy Son of the Hall of Kadath. This will really drive me crazy...".

There is no doubt that Emperor Tynardanis was not very happy with Yvraine\'s choice of a romantic partner, mainly because the people from the Hall of Kadath were not the most mentally stable individuals, not to mention the questionable reputation they enjoyed.

Aside from that, as the Emperor of the nation, he did not need another way for the influence of the Hall of Kadath to be able to penetrate even deeper into the Nesser Dynasty as he was the Emperor of the nation. From his point of view, the current situation was bad enough because the Hall of Kadath had a tremendous influence over the inner politics of the Nesser Dynasty, especially after his brother became a Cardinal.

"Haha..."

As a father, Tynardanis was pretty overprotective as a husband, so when his wife heard him complain, she just giggled because she knew that Tynardanis was somewhat overprotective of his family.

"Contrary to your belief, I am quite happy with the man my daughter chose. Even though I haven\'t met the young man myself, I could tell from what Yvraine told me about him that he is pretty decent, and in the end, if Yvraine is happy, that is all that matters."

As Yvriane called Ilroraniell for advice regarding romantic relationships, she had several conversations with her daughter, so she kept track of the conversation. The Silvermoon Empress was delighted because she had thought that with Yvraine\'s temperament and preferences, she would never be able to see her grandchildren.

"Our daughter would not have any interest in approval or anything like that... I can foresee that because of her stubbornness, she will do as she sees fit, and I can see that if Yvraine decides that the Holy Son of the Hall of Kadath Samiel Zentaur is the one she loves, she will give up even her right to the Throne of the Nesser Dynasty if she is so inclined."

As Tynardanis frowned, he knew very well that the words of his wife were in fact, words of truth, and he knew it very well.

"So for just once, be happy at something positive, and right now, if you excuse me, I had some experiments to attend."

Empress stood from her throne, heading toward the exit for the Mage Tower.

"Though at night... maybe we can practice conceiving another of the one of the imperial blood."

A teasing smirk spread across Empress Ilroraniell\'s face as she slowly closed the doors behind her, looking at her husband, who had an irritated expression from his wive\'s teasing.

Stated Empress Ilroraniell with a teasing smirk as she closed the doors behind her while looking at her husband.

"Troubled times are ahead, and as seems to be the case, the war between the Nesser Dynasty and the Underdark City might be inevitable in the near future before the next Great Cataclysm."

In his white marble throne, Emperor Tynardanis Nesser Sivlermoon sat fairly, silently muttering to himself as he sat, evidently tired from everything that had happened this day.
