Almost all of them were killed by the Shadovar, so it hardly matters...=) |

There's enough of them left for them to still be considered a threat in the 4e FRCG, so... |

That was just a culling of the weak in the Brotherhood...
The Shades performed there job admirably.
Manshoon is very pleased. |

to be nurtured like a precious flower, for it is the most precious
thing we have. Wherefore guard the word written and heed
words unwritten and set them down ere they fade . . . Learn
then, well, the arts of reading, writing, and listening true, and they
will lead you to the greatest art of all: understanding."

Sage,
Do you have any idea why WotC never published a novel about this Shadovar-killing-the-Zhents act? It would have been good for sales, considering there are a lot of Manshoon and Shadovar fans. |

I suspect this might be due to the fact that Wizards are primarily focused on publishing fiction for the post 1479 DR period.
Though, given the prevalence of the Shadovar in the current fiction, I'd also expect this little bit of history might be dealt with eventually. Perhaps as a flashback scene in a future novel about either the Shadovar or Zhentarim? |

Sage:
We have the same idea about the flashback.... And maybe the conflict will be Zhents' revenge and the Shadovar's determination to annihilate them ALL once and for all. The apt title will be "The Revenge of the Undying Cockroach". =)
