I have an assignment coming up where we have to do a speech on a topic of our our choosing and I thought I would delve into a specific time period of the Forgotten Realms. What better time period than the best f*ck up ever. Karsus' Folly. Any resources, videos, pdfs, drives etc, all knowledge is welcomed as I want to make this as in -depth as possible. Also could anyone explain how he ascended and the Mystryl-Mystra conundrum as I can't really wrap my head around it.
Do you have a copy of Magic of Faerun by Sean K Reynolds, Duane Maxwell, and Angel McCoy? The book covers Karsus and his folly in some detail. It's on page 4 and 5. Other than that, I have nothing else to suggest. Here's the link on Drivethru in case you don't have a copy: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/3731/magic-of-faerun-3e
