The Misty Forest

 26 Ches 1490 DR



Arriving back in Waterdeep, we were greeted by a festival. Apparently today was Fey Day and the city was in celebration of the Fey Wilds' rift being weakened and as close to the material plane as possible. We ran into Four the Tabaxi and he showed us around. We bought some masks and a bottle of green, sparkly wine. He also told us a little about his tribe and how his sister was sacrificed to their god. We all wondered if telling Rain would be a good idea or not.

Not long after, a wolf appeared with a letter for us. Winterhound wanted to give us some extra information that he didn't want the other faction leaders to know of just yet. The wolf guided us out of the city and to a small campsite. We talked with Winterhound and he explained how he believes the Wearer of Purple that attacked the Elven villages in the Misty Forest is the illegitimate second son of the Elf King, King Melandrach.

We decided to head out immediately and in a weeks time we arrived at the Misty Forest. We found the Elven Village, Altand, in ruin as we asked the remaining villagers what happened. Apparently a Green Dragon attacked from the trees as the cultists attacked from the forest floor.

With a little investigating (and a dream from Bahamut) we freed a crow from a cage who was actually a Druid. The Druid had been locked up by the new leader of the village for knowing he was working with the Wearer of Purple who was responsible for attacking the village.

The Druid led us through the forest and to the cult hideout that was hidden behind a water fall. We fought our way through and finally found Neronvain and a Green Dragon. With strategy and helpful thinking, we were able to kill the dragon and take Neronvain as a hostage. We brought him back to Waterdeep and had him locked up. He can deal with his daddy issues behind bars.

The Redbrands

13 Alturiak 1489 DR Today we decided to do some shopping. Catscratch went off on his own to who knows where while Luna and I visited the Shrine of Luck. Luna gave a coin in hopes for some good luck. If she wants to waste her coin on such things, by all means. But luck isn't going to help you survive in this world. Catscratch quickly appeared before us and even brought someone I've never seen before, a tall cat with a leafy looking cloak. A Tabaxi, I believe they're called. She introduced herself as Rain and told us she had also been hired but was running late. She was asking around town for Gundren but found out about him missing. We decided to deal with the Redbrand situation once and for all after hearing how they were kidnapping people from the town. Once inside the hideout, we were separated when the floor collapsed from underneath us. Luna and I were on one side, Catscratch and Rain on the other. We reluctantly decided to split up. I was honestly a little worried a...

The Book Thief (Part 2)

22 Eleint 1489 DR We finally met up with the head librarian and he told us about some of his staff missing. He told us to check the archives since that's where the two were suppose to be on duty today. The archives were huge but we found the area. We were too late once we noticed the dead body hunched over a table with piles of books. We did notice two of the books that were stolen were now open on the table with pages ripped out about the Pool of Radiance. Suddenly, a shockwave and rumble rang through out the archives as all the book cases toppled over. A hole was blown into a wall and we went to investigate. We found a room with old, burnt, books and were attacked by shadows. Luna was downed quickly while the rest of us finished them off. With Luna back on her feet, we hurried through another hole in the wall and ended up in the sewers. Luna caused these giant centipedes to fall asleep as we snuck by. After two hours of walking we ended up in the mouth of a cave and in the middle...

Fairy Dust

30 Alturiak 1489 DR We've finally reached Red Larch. I was pretty familiar with the area since it's so close to the city of Yartar and, well, my ruins. We decided to help out some guy by killing wolves for pelts. As we entered the Krypt Garden Forest, we ran into a small pixie named Quill and his hedgehog steed Spike. This pixie wanted us to help him find a magical well that apparently heals any mounds. His wings were broken so he was hoping to get them fixed. We agreed to help in the morning as Quill lead us to the fairy trees. Small houses hung from branches. This was my first time ever seeing fairies before and never knew if they truly existed or not. I did barter for a rune stone. Pretty sure I got fire. Time to camp out. Guess I have first watch. In the morning we headed off deeper into the forest. It was darker and quieter, even with the sun high in the sky. Kinda reminded me of the forest surrounding the tribe. Theres nothing to fear in the dark, I've found out. ...
