The so-called Tesla Cannon was actually a replica of the electromagnetic railgun previously built in Silverymoon. There was no questioning the railgun's power. Without Queen Laeral Silverhand, Solam would never have considered such a devastating weapon, because the project was simply too massive and the technology involved far too advanced. With Solam's alchemical skill alone, he truly could not have pulled it off. But with Queen Laeral Silverhand, that was no longer a problem.

Thus, after several years of effort, the
