Weave and influence over the realms by cravenly assassinating her.
But instead of merely breaking the goddess of magic's dominance, her death threw the Weave into utter chaos and collapse. Magic spells faltered, or failed entirely. Countless spellcasters were killed or driven insane. A vast storm of blue flame arose from the Mhair jungles and swept the continent, churning and reshaping the land, and leaving whole regions devastated.
For the murder of Mystra, Cyric was sentenced by a conclave of gods to a thousand years imprisonment. Toril would face nearly a hundred years of upheaval before Mystra could return once again, reinstated as goddess of magic in 1480 DR, thanks to the efforts of the legendary wizard, Elminster Aumar and the events of the Second Sundering, to be fully explored in the next volume...
