327. Conquering—One Barony At A Time

The villagers had gathered outside the temple, and the priest came to call them. 

But Sylvester didn't leave immediately as he remembered the Spirit Mirnor's words. Something that could gravely help him in solving a mystery. 

"Priest Maligard, for how long have your people occupied these forest lands?" He inquired. 

"For as far as I can remember, Priest of Solis. I remember my grandfather telling me that his grandfather and even his grandfather lived here. It ought to be thousands of years." 

Sylvester took out a small parchment and showed it. "This crescent moon symbol. I found it in many locations across the Sol. Even inside the Broken Mangroves, in a ruin. Do you know what this means?" 

Priest Maligard looked at it carefully. "Hmm… I don't remember it clearly, but I think I have seen this before… Ah! I know! My grandfather once showed this to me. This is the symbol of Goddess Luna, the Moon Goddess."
