| book text = [Reading like a strange cross between a warped confession and a manifesto, this text was written by a paladin who broke his oath of justice and celibacy to Tyr. After years of devotion, it seems the man grew very sullen with the state of his life. People did not like his religious ardour, not the ardour itself but the stringency of his tone. Evidently he got drunk one night in spring and attacked a young woman walking the streets of her hometown. Ironically he was gelded by the authorities, ensuring his continued devotion to celibacy, if not justice.]
 
 
I spoke to a serving girl at a roadside tavern in the boonies of the Sword Coast. I told her I was researching Elminster.
 
 
 
 
Who was Elminster?
 
 
 
 
Well, he was this astonishing figure in the arcane community. He'd shed the blood of the world's most cunning villains like Manshoon of the Zhentarim, shared his bed with a Goddess, and inspired hundreds of magic-wielders to explore themselves, their craft, widen the scope of their ambitions. She nodded politely. I pressed her. Had she truly not heard of Elminster?
 
 




'Miss,' she said. 'Aside from random drinkers in here, I know eight people. Nine including my dog, Binky. Those were nice little stories you told, but what has this Elminster to do with the price of butter?'
