The Great Library of Palanthas
Astinus' Office
Dominating the center of this room is a massive birch desk. Legend claims this desk has supported the thousands of volumes of history Astinus has recorded. A large pot of ink, a container of sharpened quills, and a candelabra complete the desks decorations. Small windows line the room, allowing light to trickle in and gently illuminate the entire room. A comfortable couch rests against the west wall. Tapestries hang on the walls between the windows. Shelves line the walls, filled with tomes of the more recent records of heroes and villians upon the face of Krynn.
The librarian notices you aren't reading anything... Astinus hands an elegant book bound in elf-skin to an Aesthetic standing by you. You note the spine bears the word 'Elidor' scribed in deep purple ink. As you glance down at the page you read..
From the pages of Elidor's book..
I knew the Vallenwoods. At least I thought I did. I lived on the herbs and wildlife. I found an old Vallenwood tree stump and made it my house. It was far enough away from solace that i shouldn't be found. Except I was. Not immediately but after several lunar cycles. She followed the glow of the fire and the smell of wood burning in my makeshift house. Her name was Maya. She was a Qualinesti full blood. An outcast and renegade mage. She lived off of the land and she knew how to do it undetected. I imagine if I wasnt as young as i was she wouldn't have approached me, but she did. She was exactly what I needed. Maya showed me how to live off the land undetected. She had a series of Vallenwood stumps that the roots were hollowed creating a network we could move around the forest in. She was banished from Qaulinost. She never told me why. She just mentioned magic doesn't belong in towers but in trees or something like that. For somebody who didn't believe in the structured conclave she had a ton of their books!
