Queen Laeral Silverhand arrived quickly. The reason she had not appeared immediately was that she had not been with the army at all; she had been waiting in the fortress occupied by Solam for the war to end. Queen Laeral Silverhand did not lack courage in battle. In fact, among the former Seven Sisters of the North, she had possessed the strongest will to fight. Otherwise, she would never have faced the entire Red Wizards alone.
The reason she had not accompanied the army was entirely due to her faith. Not her faith in the Goddess of Magic, but her faith in order.
As everyone knew, Queen Laeral Silverhand was a staunch supporter of order—the most unwavering kind. This was exceedingly rare among the Seven Sisters of the North. Most of her sisters were neutral or chaotic good; the only ones who truly upheld order were her and another of the Seven Sisters, Laela.
It was also because of this that Queen Laeral Silverhand could not help demons fight devils. Although she regarded devils as mortal enemies as well, the Blood War was different. The conflict here had nothing to do with good or evil; it was solely a war between chaos and order.
There was no problem with asking Queen Laeral Silverhand to kill devils. But helping demons kill devils in the Blood War was out of the question.
So faith was not necessarily a bad thing, but sometimes it truly gave people headaches. Otherwise, with Queen Laeral Silverhand's formidable spellcasting ability, she would have been an enormous asset to Solam.
Queen Laeral Silverhand took out an entire bag of soul crystals and stood there in a daze amid a field of light as it gradually faded away.
Just now, Queen Laeral Silverhand had cast a ninth-level spell—Wish.
