兄弟之战
作者: Jeff Grubb publishing house: Wizards of the Coast 1998 - 6
关于兄弟之战(全文转自小说《旅法师》前言)
《兄弟之战》是神器系列的第一部小说;为了让初次接触本系列的读者们了解故事的背景,特在此简述其故事。
神器、机械,魔法力。一对兄弟因对立的神器控制力而分道扬镳,却没想到这二种力量根本系出同源,就像他们之间的兄弟情份。
为了应该谅解而不被谅解的,为了应该弥补却没能挽回的,为了错误,为了复仇,他们争战了大半辈子;在战争的过程中,他们开发的机械破坏了大地。就在他们的世界即将为机械啃蚀殆尽之前,哥哥的醒悟让一切都在魔法的力量中结束。争战不休的末日回归虚无,回归原点。
故事应该从沙漠中的那个小小考古营开始说起。
年幼的克撒和米斯拉在父母双亡后,来到沙漠投靠考古学家托卡西雅。克撒是个瘦长的金发高个儿,也是好学的孩子,个性严肃而不苟言笑;弟弟米斯拉却正好相反,矮胖而黑发,天性冲动爱玩,为人轻浮却很有亲和力。哥哥在营里颇受同学与学弟妹的爱戴,弟弟则成天和沙漠族裔的挖掘工人们混在一起;二人虽时有冲突,不过出于对托卡西雅同样的敬爱之心,兄弟之间仍相安无事。在某次的探勘行动中,一块很大的动力宝石在二人的触碰下竟一分为二;一半可以增强能量,另一半则能削弱能量。哥哥拿到了强能石、弟弟拿到了弱能石之后,觊觎宝石的争端便开始了。冲动的弟弟总是暴躁行事,顽固的哥哥也从来不让步,双方拿着各自的宝石相持不下,直到他们的恩师托卡西雅死在二人因宝石而起的一场争执下。
米斯拉在夜里狂奔出营后不知去向,克撒在料理完后事之后,也离开伤心地。
这段自我放逐的历程,兄弟之间的际遇简直犹如天地之别。哥哥来到了丰饶的南方海国依天,凭着高超的神器知识和机械技术娶到了公主美娇娘,开设神器学校,有国家建设的实验室和一切器材,在丰富的资源供给下打造完美的研究环境。虽然他是个工作狂,和女王妻子之间的感情因此时好时坏,但是此刻的他在物质和精神生活方面并无匮乏。只不过,和弟弟的不愉快与害死恩师的愧疚仍是他午夜梦回时的阴影。在这段期间,克撒得到一名得力助手达硌士,个性纯真,处世却比克撒中庸,后来成为克撒一生中最不可或缺的良徒益友。
弟弟米斯拉的生活却完全不是如此。潜意识里他也为恩师之死而自责,但他受恶魔召唤的时候多过他哥哥,因此总把自己的悔恨归疚在克撒身上。他流落到沙漠中,被法拉吉土匪俘虏为奴隶,过着生不如死的日子。想不到他的口才与语言天份、加上以往和挖掘工人之间的熟稔,却让他因缘际会的成为沙漠族长的太子少保,更在拥有召唤机械龙马法瓦的能力之后,当上少族长的心腹。此后他便成一人之下万人之上。不久他有了一个女徒弟兼情人阿土诺,和米斯拉同样的充满好奇心与求知欲,性情也同样冲动急躁,只是多了一份女性特有的慧黠和机灵。她和克撒的大弟子达路士之间有着亦敌亦友的情谊,在这场兄弟之战中拥有二面评价,是此中唯一的性情中人。
冷落宫中的长嫂向小叔倾诉寂寞,因而生情也不足为奇。盛怒之下的克撒将米斯拉狼狈逐出,不久便招来法拉吉的围城猛攻。佑天沦陷,达硌士带着怀有身孕的女王,在阿士诺的协助下逃走。远征回国的克撒只见到残破的家园,和弟弟之间的梁子也越给越深。此后便是双方一连串的攻城掠地与结盟聚势,竞武则让他们盲目的耗尽地力,弄得天怒人怨,鬼哭神号。克撤或许曾有所领悟,但也难再挽狂澜。战事既开,不分出胜负是不会结束的,米斯拉的执着更使得战事白热化。
基克斯,这个来自非瑞克西亚的怖兽,是机械之神的奴仆。米斯拉在梦境中偷走了他的马法瓦之后,他便只想毁灭这个世界、夺回他的玩具。基克斯兄弟会的信徒崇信机械之神,便理所当然成为他控制下的傀儡。他们在战争的后半局几乎将二大阵营玩弄于股掌之上,也为这场无谓的兄弟之战增添更多可厌的变数。不过魔法力的存在出乎他的意料之外,而这股强大的心灵力量完全压倒了他。最后他狼狈的逃回故土,后来又诱使基克斯修士们进入非瑞克西亚。
就在二股势力打得不可开交的时候,一个预示末日景象的神器出现在西方,那就是一个称为同兆的皿器。最终之战的最后一刻,同兆辗转落到了克撒的手上,看着自己和弟弟之间的战争竟然赔上了整个世界,毁掉美好的大自然和万物万灵,克撒沉痛地回想起他们一路走来的轨迹,想到那段只知考古的岁月。就在那一刻,他用自己的鲜血将这一切回忆和悔意注入同兆中,启动了默示录的力量。毁灭降临,末日景象在世界各地呈现。
逃过一劫的达硌士在一片死寂的海边被克撒救起。克撒已经进化,将往来于时空之中。他给这位大弟子的最后任务,便是要他警惕世人,切莫重蹈覆辙;就像索蓝人当年骤然舍弃文明一样,这场末世战争却仍造成了古族原想避免的悲剧。永远的学徒达硌士在已然变得恶劣的气候中,踏出了为警世师的第一步。

Into the Heart of the Dark Queen's Empire
The Companions are back and the balance of Krynn is at stake, in the magnificent conclusion to the Lost Chronicles.
The world celebrates Spring Dawning. The War of the Lance is nearing its end -- for good or ill. The wizard, Raistlin Majere, has become a Black Robe and, using the dragon orb in his possession, he travels to Neraka, the lord city of the Dark Queen. Raistlin ostensibly plans to work for her, though in reality he means to further his own quest for power.
But Raistlin realizes that if Takhisis wins, he will always be her slave. And so he resorts to a dangerous and deadly game. He acts as a double agent, offering his services to both the side of darkness and that of light, working for Emperor Ariakas and for the resistance movement in Neraka.
Takhisis plans to destroy the gods of magic on the Night of the Eye, when all the wizards will be congregated at the Tower of Wayreth. Raistlin has to find a way to thwart the plot, even though this means doing battle with his own sister, the Dragon Highlord Kitiara, and her terrifying ally, the death knight, Lord Soth.
And still he must overcome his final foe: the archmagus Fistandantilus, who seeks to kill Raistlin and steal his soul.
Krynn's future has been written. People think they know how the story ends. But one night and one fateful decision by Raistlin Majere may change it all.
