[QUOTE="dazzlerdal, post: 7913772, member: 6695391"] One thing about Cormyr that many might not pick up on, is hints that Thauglor controlled the part of the Weave around Cormyr and was able to alter it in ways. The elves (Iliphar Nelnueve) seemingly won this control of the Weave from Thauglor in the contest for the Wolf Woods, and then ceded that control to House Obarskyr. The blood of the Obarskyr's seems to be involved in this link to the Weave (the Ghazneths support that link, an idea developed by George Krashos). However, i'm wondering if control over the Weave was not facilitated by some kind of magical construct. When the King of Cormyr met the elven lord at the battle with the Witch Lords (in Cormyr: A Novel), it was hinted that the Obarskyr's had power in their blood, but also that the same power was in the brow of the elven lord. I took that to mean his crown held power. King Faerlthann's crown was made by the elves and gifted to him by Iliphar Nelnueve. I'm not sure what has happened to it since King Iltharl the Insufficient though. I figure control over the Weave actually means attunement to a single Weave Anchor, and that Thauglor, whoever possesses the Crown of Faerlthann, and those of the Blood of Obarskyr are able to channel some of that power through themselves, allowing the Mage Royal to monitor them easily anywhere in Cormyr, and in Thauglor's case perhaps he found means to transcend the body he possessed. Just a few thoughts if anyone fancies a theoretical debate on Cormyr [/QUOTE]
