Yeah -- it's not a question of "restore or destroy," but rather "restore or block the restoration."
That being said, I'm quite sure that the heroic and fan-favorite angle would involve restoring her. It'd be a cool arc, but the end result is awfully predictable.

Perhaps a Battle Interactive with two paths: restore and destroy.
Calculate points for each side and determine which is victorious.
What reason would non-evil PCs have to destroy Mystra?
To make sure her corpse doesn't come back to life and cause more apocalyptic events resulting in the deaths of millions of people. And so people don't have to deal with her and those meddling kids anymore.
I bet Ao's kickin' himself for raising Midnight to godhood.
Sorry WOTC, you lost me with Essentials. So where I used to buy every book that came out, now I will be very choosy about what I buy. Can we just get back to real 4e?

Boo-freakin'-hoo, ya light-slingin' finger-wigglers. -- MrCelcius in response to the Cleric's Healer's Lore nerf

So, what you do is have that battle interactive... then if Mystra is "restored", have it really be Shar recovering the weave and becoming super powerful. Almost self-writes up the following battle interactive

Wasn't there a Dragon article wherein Bahamut was killed? Doesn't that make Bahamut no longer legal for LFR characters to worship?

I always disliked Mystra because I hate the idea that my arcane characters have to worship or appease or get permission from a certain god to use magic. That's what divine characters are for! If I wanted to play a cleric, I'd play a cleric. Arcane characters should be self-reliant; their power is their own. I agree with Dragon9 in liking the Realms more with Mystra dead.

No, you're thinking of the Adventure Path in Dungeon.

It's a bit more dramatic with her dead.
Why, on the FR changes, changes have ALWAYS to be for good? Why changes can't make the world worse, and why it couldn't be an opportunity?

You mean like the Shades arriving in Faerun? You mean like the death of Mystra and a slap on the wrist for Cyric? You mean like the Spellplague? You mean like Elistraee dying?
There's plenty of adversity in Faerun ;-)

This ADCO, The Knights of Mystic Fire still lives (as LFR outlaws, obviously) because some of us just can't let go! Heh. :P
