ANAUROCH
The City of Shade continues to exert its influence upon this magical desert. Around the great Shadow Sea, many small towns have sprung up, reaping the benefits of the sea & the areas changed by the shades. The Shadowed Wood lies to the north of the sea, harboring many ancient secrets & vile beasts.
In the town of Darkwood a blind 'prophet' mumbles in the pouring rain:
"Old Ones Return! Their Many Feet to Tread Our Bones!"
CORMYR
The might kingdom of Cormyr is not what it once was. Sembia has many tentacles writhing thru this country. Many nobles make alliances & the kingdom has nearly erupted in civil war. The Stonelands has seen several "barons"(those people who have made a claim of land in the dangerous area). Several keeps & small towns exist there, though not all are occupied.
His majesty Azoun V is suffering from a wasting disease, his son,
Prince Azoun VI, the "Bloody Prince", is patiently waiting for his
father's demise. It is rumored that his daughters, princesses Tanilia & Alusairia (named after the king's dead mother & deceased regent of his early years) are neck deep in plots to put themselves inline for the throne. The sorcerer Caladnei is the Royal Magician of Cormyr. Her support of the "Bloody Prince" is well known.
On the streets of Suzail a blind 'prophet' rises his head to the
thundering skies:
"Three Dark Ladies, Their Fruit, Our Death! Their
Eyes, Mirrors to Our Doom!"
CORMANTHOR & SHADOWDALE
Many years ago, the drow of Cormanthor were a threat to the dales. Some forty years ago, adventurers braved the tainted mythal & entered the city. They found the bodies of many Vhaeraun drow, though not the number that was expected. Since then, their have been no sightings of drow, not even those that serve Eilistraee. A mixed group of elves have moved in & they speak of terrifying noises at night. Of the mighty Eliminster, not a sight has been seen in some thirty years. His tower in Shadowdale is now a school for mages led by the
lady mage Rhea, rumored to be a daughter of the old mage. The lady Storm still inhabits the recently growing Shadowdale, though she posses no hint of the years that have past her buy.
The Zhentarium still pose a threat to the area, though they have,
seemingly, been inactive in the last few decades.
In front of Elminster's Tower during a terrible rain a blind 'prophet'
yells:
"First Blood! Hordes March & Kingdoms Fall!"
On a rain & blood slick street in Zhentil Keep a blind 'prophet'
speaks:
"Second Blood! A Tear Falls! Fey Queen Drowns & The Gem is Washed Away!"
