Lundar's Library

Day 196, Year 543 of the Ascendancy

I’ve been very busy with my studies for the past few months, and I
hardly get to spend any time outside of the library. As a result
though, my training is coming along very nicely, and I’ve still managed
to make it to a few exploratory trips on Kizmia’s Isle and Devil’s
Isle. I also visited the carnival that popped up in East Farms for a
few weeks, which was quite amusing, even if the fortune teller spouted
utter nonesense.

Anyway, I’d like to relate to yi some rather
important events that transpired a few weeks ago. It was the 16th day
of Summer, and most exiles were engaged in a dangerous rescue on
Kizmia’s Isle, for the enigmatic witch Fat Alice, who had managed to
fall in the far eastern mountains of the Isle of Lyfelidae. However,
while exiles attempted the rescue afar, important events were
transpiring in Puddleby as well. The Mystic Council of Puddleby had
scheduled some kind of conference with Tenebrion, and Tenebrion’s Sarir
appeared in town. Soon after his appearance, several representatives of
the Mystic Council arrived, and hastily escorted to the conference room
for a secret meeting. While I have been forbidden to reveal everything
that was discussed in the meeting, the Mystic Council has given me
permission to reveal several of the details, as they concern Puddleby.

The information that might be of interest to
exiles concerns the ethreal amulets that Tenebrion has been handing out
as of late. Tenebrion claims that he is as concerned as we are with the
dangerous flow of ether into our plane from Purgatory, and he wishes us
exiles to aid him in the research of the flow of ether, by using the
amulets, because we have access to certain places that he does not.
Tenebrion says that he has a huge stockpile of these amulets, and will
soon be handing them out freely. Tenebrion says that he and his
brothers are very knowledgeable about the ethereal plane, and that they
might be willing to share some of their knowledge, if we demonstrate
that we are ready for it, by learning how to use the ethreal amulets.
He also hinted that Umbrion has hidden somewhere in his isle a slave,
that may be able to aid us in using these amulets. Read the edited transcript for more details.
