Enter Alyssa

[Iron Dragoon]

"Thank you, Albert. Could you point me in the right direction?"

[Anastasia]

"Think it's moonwards. Follow that and find a stream. Follow it as it flows into bigger streams and eventually the river Luna. It's on the banks there somewhere," Albert replies after a big bite of dried meat. "If you reach the ocean, you've gone too far."

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa raises an eyebrow. "Thank you for that. I'll tell you what, Albert. If I come across something in my research about storing moonlight, I'll come back and let you know."

[Anastasia]

"Sure. Bring something to drink, too," he adds, "I'm tired of spring water."

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa chuckles. "Sure, Albert."

She turns and heads off to find this inn!

[Anastasia]

Roll and post 1d100.

[Anastasia]

You follow the stream, making good time. The moonlit night seems eternal, unchanging. The light of the moon shows the way, casting everything in a silvery glow. All is radiant under the full moon, nothing changing.

"Do you know why? It's because each flower is one of Selune's tears," A woman's voice intones as you follow the river. "Shed from the pain of her wounds from battling Shar." The flowers all around you seen bright as ever, the voice coming from behind you, ahead of you, to your sides, above, below. A soft voice, gentle, almost like the sated and sweet tones a woman uses with their man as pillow talk.

Alyssa looks around, taking in the scenery with a new appreciation for a moment.

"Shar seems to bleed many, sad though it is. Wasted life, wasted potential. She seems to have put herself at odds with me for no good reason than I have power."

[Anastasia]

You don't see anyone around and yet the voice continues. "You have been chosen to shed your own tears. Seek the Prophecy of Primus and understand why Shar must be stopped. He chose you to aid in this monumental task. Be blessed, but know that this blessing is one that will claim many of your tears before it is finished." Amen.

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa files the name of the prophecy away for later research.

"I don't suppose you'd have a way of breaking one of Shar's curses? She blinded and cursed one of my diviners. I plan to make her pay for that, but I don't want the man to suffer more than he needs to."

[Anastasia]

"Seek the power of creation," The voice says, "For if Shar is entropy and destruction, she is opposed by the act of creation."

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa closes her eyes and tries to control her frustration. Gods. Why does it always have to be enigmatic and complex?

"Thank you for the guidance. If possible, I would like us to work together in the future, though I may be under the tutelage of the Red Knight soon."

[Anastasia]

"I will be watching, waiting for you. For one day we shall meet, far away from Selune's fields of flowers." The voice murmurs, and then speaks no more.

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa runs the encounter through her magically enhanced knowledge of lore, trying to identify who she might have spoken to.
