Dispatched to Candlekeep to recover some research before a group of Thayans, the party finds themselves up against an Eldritch horror, a half dozen Shadows, and two shadow-wielding monks. Though it took nearly everything the adventurers could bring to bear, they won out and banished the vile creature back to the Outer Planes.

Wil and some of their travelling companions are returning to Candlekeep when they see an immense purple dome shroud the castle library. The party was tasked by Lady Remalia Haventree to probe the catacombs beneath CandleKeep, searching for the silver dragon that is set as guardian over the caverns. The dragon has been trapped in a sickly green rime, the apparent work of a Far Realm entity called Father Lymic.
Retrieving an informant from Waterdeep further improved their chances of success.
A Far Realm-warped beholder attacked just outside the walls of Candlekeep. It remained out of most of the heroes' reach until Wil was able to leap from the roof of a nearby outbuilding and grapple the aberration to the ground.
After quelling a trio of arcane tomes run amok, the adventurers found the source of the violet dome over the library fortress: an aboleth with unexplicable powers gained in the Far Realms. It too attempted to remain out of reach, but the sorcerer's magics and a few well placed slings & arrows from Wil and Geran the Bard felled the creature at the last.

Story Award: State of Candlekeep

You defended Candlekeep against the incursions of the Far Realm and the Tenebrous Creed, however, the toll was great. Bowed but Not Broken. The librarians were able to assist you in your quest against Szass Tam.

The Harpers summon allies to Suzail, capital city of Cormyr, and to the Dragon's Jaws tavern. In a meeting there, High Harper Remalia Haventree reveals a beholder-related Artifact is rumored to be entering the city in the next two days and the city is endangered.

Given three leads, the adventurers with Wil select to visit Lord Potrick Huntcrown, the Spymaster of Suzail. Turned away at the gate, we enter via sewers, clearing several traps and stealthing past the guards. The Lord has messages from Scorn, a Zhentarim wizard warning that the artifact mustn't be taken by a noble house.
He also has a Manifest showing Lady Deandra Thistledown has imported a large number of "perfumes" that are highly flammable and unstable. She is attempting to prove her claim to the crown of Cormyr. There is also rumor that she is allied with the Zhentarim who have been smuggling items into Suzail for Thay. Those smugglers are using undead or wearing masks, indicating that their cargo could be noxious.

Visiting the Lady Thistledown, we discover that she has placed all of the evidence aboard the Dolphin's Dream at the Stoutbold Marina. No information she gave us indicated any nefarious goals. Leaving her manor, we were ambushed by a pair of half-dragons. When questioned, they revealed they were hired by House Truesilver and Crownsilver to impede anyone assisting Lady Thistledown.

Meeting back at the Dragons' Jaws, we put information together with what other teams learned. The Zhentarim smugglers were found dead from a gas attack and the magically sealed chest they smuggled was stolen. Lady Thistledown was implicated in the attack.

We responded to a report of a Purple Dragon Knight in need of support. Aven Konigchy, a junior Purple Dragon Knight patrolling the north end of Hunt Bide district, overheard three criminals duscussing destroying Huntsilver Manor (home of Lady Thistledown), but we couldn't get more information from them.
Speaking with some urchins, they reported that magic users were protecting a chest that was being taken into a manor near Garth Street.

The adventurers were dispatched to the docks, while the Harpers and Dragon knights protected the Promenade and raided Huntsilver Manor. It appears that Lady Thistledown was innocent of any wrongdoing. While the Harpers & Dragon Knights took some losses, he adventurers were able to destroy the Thayans and prevent the artifact from being exported to Thay.

Wil the Younger disembarked a ship in Aykar, a port in Turmish and shortly after was approached by MXXX. He introduced himself as an officer of the XXX noble merchant house guard and requested Wil recruit some adventurers to assist in searching out Jezeriah a kidnapped daughter of the house.
Wil recruits two individuals who were on the same inbound vessel, Jewels, a paladin of Hoar and ... Jewels what was that girl named? The acolyte of Sune Firehair. You don't remember? No me either. Yeah, some vain Sune-follower.
The next morning, all three were put aboard the maiden voyage of a new vessel. The untried vessel nearly capsized at sea, but bore them to Hawk's Isle, where they discovered the pirate ship Umberlee's Resolve had beached itself, but was salvagable.
After a day of searching the island, the threee adventurers, along with the first mate and ship's stormspeaker, discovered a cave where Jessira was being held captive by a morkoth. The pirate crew was already dead.
Making our way back to shore, we were able to make the Umberlee's Resolve seaworthy and return her to port.

The SEA QUEEN’S FURY was absent from the pirate base of Isolation (DRW09). The pirated ship's trail led the Harpers and our party to Waterdeep. In an effort to find the Thayan base of operations within the city, we join the ship's crew under false identities. One of the crew says Green Allis will reveal the location, but only in exchange for a large stuffed beholder sild in the front of a local shop.
Wil spends two days either going on supply trips with the ship's crew or quietly tailing them, but finds no clues as to where the Thayan spy operatuon in Waterdeep is based.

Tasked by High Harper Remalia Haventree in search of the Tenebrous Creed’s lair, we find this cult of darkness in the Thunder Peaks of Icewind Dale. Forgotten in the tundra is a long-lost prison where Father Lymic–an ancient Far Realm Elemental Evil was bound by the elves of Myth Drannor.
After inflitrating the Tenebrous Creed's occultic camp, we found evidence that Father Lymic had left the temple long ago and that the Tenebrous Creed was seeking the Thayans to recover artifacts stolen by Szass recently .

After restoring the moonstones that held the echoes of Father Lymic, we encountered Damita Uthros, an agent of Darlon Ma (Thayan Zulkir if Enchantment.) Uthros requested a parlay and explained that the stolen items are within the Thayan Embassy in Mulmaster, Wil's Hometown.
