"See? The burning clouds that covered the sky at last Mugsaiya
The discontent of the God of order brings tropical thunderstorms
Suddenly McCabe was all over the valley, and suddenly the glory of the empire was dumb
Green sticky mushroom blanket, the forest of mushroom trees, animals, and livestock streams all swallowed
Resembles mountains moan, mist ChaoZha, true and false
Stop! Loe went south and was no more inhabited, and Levesiver sat at either end of the gorge
Trespassers! Turn into fungus mud gurgling, you see his forest as it is!"
Sovid, who had been silent nearby, suddenly spoke, and a perfectly worded ballad broke out, the same tune as the previous one, but in standard Sekowebo.
"What did you just sing? 'asked Alan, who had a general idea.
"The Arcane Common Language translation of McCabe's Descent. Excerpted from Mr. Gooden's Modern History of Levitzk. The ballad testifies to the role of religion in the subject of the Levitzke schism." As Sovid spoke, Alan heard another historian's interpretation of the Levitzk schism.
According to orthodox historiography, the Levizke split originated from Sennorbo, which was the strong rise of Alan's motherland. After the increase of geographical influence, the front line of the geopolitical game between Sennorbo and Sylville was pushed from the Saki Islands to the Levitzk-Yorkland line. Several forces wrestled with each other and eventually led the entire island of Levitzk into a war of warlords, and Yorkland has rebelled ever since. But another group of historians, led by Mr. Gooden, argues that it was precisely the loss of legitimacy that caused the former royal family to lose control of the country. In the first year of the New calendar, the colony flew over the islands and returned a few months later, with a group of Bacterial briefly stationed at Levitzk. The team made changes to the terrain, and a canyon in the Mugsaiya Mountains became what is now a McCabe forest. A disgusting, sticky, turquoise blanket of fungus filled the forest, wiping out all the plants and animals that once lived in the valley and replacing them with towering trees of mushrooms.
The word McCabe means "mushroom forest". They're like swamps, they get deeper and deeper with one step, and they're so corrosive that whatever's out there gets eaten up in no time. Many local people did not understand at the beginning and tried to cross, but the result is that they never return. In a particularly religious place like Levitzk, the McCabe forest was thought to be the Goddess of order's punishment for the impotence of the royal family, the death knell for the royal family. After a while, more and more people stopped obeying the royal orders for various reasons, and eventually, the country fell apart and there was no peace.
"Tropical thunderstorms come with the displeasure of the Goddess of Order" and "The glory of the Empire suddenly goes dumb" are quoted as proof of this idea. Whether or not this is a reasonable interpretation, it is clear that the popularity of the Levitzke family is now firmly entrenched. According to Sovid, the ballad is theological but realistic, meaning that things like "bubbling up into the mud" and eating up a stream of animals and animals should be real. In this case, this dangerous place is very impressive, but this magical place is good to see from a distance.
Listening to Sovid tell a story for a long time, or with a literary color of wild history miscellany, unconsciously close to the meal. Sovid wanted to continue his history lecture, but in the afternoon they had to return to the town of Loe.
After lunch, Alan set off with the caravan, which, as on the Prairie, lacked much of the sparkle of the journey. Apyi, as Abel had said before, had come "to make a show of force". At the present rate, by the time we reached Levy County, it was feared that the work of Secowybor would be done and ready to go home. In a way Alan was looking forward to this, to travel about without danger, and to be paid for it, as it cost money to keep a guest.
By nightfall, the caravan had reached its intended campsite, a mile ahead of it was a fork in the road. Straight ahead was the route, and left was the shortcut to Levy County, the Mycel-covered McCabe Canyon. Alan was still full of ballads that ended with "Trespassers! Turn into fungus mud gurgling, you see his forest as it is!" That weird tune, in a way this ballad sounds brainwashed.
Alan fell into a deep sleep after dinner, but it was not long before the camp was lit up again. Something serious seemed to have happened, and Alan was taken to the head of the wagon by Reggie, who said he had something important to tell the family.
At the head of the car, everyone in the family garb had arrived, including Alan, who had just become a guest. The only outsider is the Sellsword leader who joined the group this morning, Scar Grant. He was a fierce man, they said, an Awwu man who had done assassinations, and now Grenn was sitting beside him with his sword. Alan looked at the rune mark on the scabbard. He didn't think it was ordinary and wondered how much Abel had paid for such a cruel man.
Abel cut to the chase. "Things have changed. Some of us need to be diverted to McCabe's Grove."
