The Mirror and the Book


In a Marsh known as the Stench Swamp within the Feywild Expanse of Kutloc, stands a hut that appears abandoned.

Inside is a cupboard of weapons, some of which are magical, a book, curtains made from mothman wings, and hidden under the bed (in the room behind a curtain) is a mirror, laid within a frame of gold honeysuckle flowers.

Once upon a time there was a Party of brave people who were selected to hunt the dangerous, evil and nasty creatures that were appearing within the Feywild Expanse. One of the members of that Party was called Mira, a powerful arcana mage, a Bloodhunter, female, of High Elves (moon) - with long flowing white blonde hair and deep blue eyes like dark pools, which glowed bright blue when she used her magic.

The Enchantress Ezmia sent one of her Enthralled servants, A Bloodthirsty female leader, a Fire Genasi female with flame red and yellow hair with strips of white and blue, of the Militant Myrlochar, Order of Soul Spiders - an elite fighting organization composed exclusively of male crusaders, with female leadership.
Her wide black eyes that sparkled when furious. She had always been a passionate, and wild spirited person.

When Levana was about to kill Mira, Mira cast a spell to break the Enthrall. From that moment on Levana decided is had to protect Mira. Nothing Mira said, could stop Levana in her self-given task. Levana already wanted revenge.

The Enchantress was furious to loose such a powerful asset as Levana, and sent many a creature to seek out Mira and Levana. When she sent an Enthralled young green Wyvern Brodix, Levana was badly injured in the encounter. That was when Mira realised she started to consider the fire Genasi as a friend.

They fought many a creature together, from Mothmen to Fire Nymphs, from gelatinous cube and other oozes to Fire Phoenix. After many a night hiding out, from the Iron Golem that the Enchantress had sent after them, they destroyed the metal golem. Hot and sweat from the fight, they found a swimming hole along a river to bathe in. It was a lovely day, and after feeling refreshed they splashed and played, until Levana took a risk and kissed Mira. The kiss returned was hesitant only for a moment. From that day forward they developed into lovers.

They continued to hunt and write notes from studying these creatures that The Enchantress released into the Feywild Expanse. Including Scarecrows, Achaierai, Bladeling, Bonespear, Maug, Yugoloth, Chronotyryn, and a Rust Monster.

It is said they were tasked to kill the two Gorgons near the mythical town of Vartol. No one knows if they ever found the town, but it is told that they died before completing that finally quest.

The Enchantress Ezmia never found where their home in the marsh was within the Feywild Expanse. Ezmia was revengeful and powerful, and when they came to attack the Gorgons, The Enchantress was waiting for them. Ezmia used her magic to capture Mira. She force the high Elf to drink dragon blood - which caused Mira to have to tell the truth. Yet Mira wored everything carefully, and angried The Enchantress - who decided to entrap Mira inside a mirror. Levana came seeking revenge and her lover, only for The Enchantress Ezmai to changed Levana into the book of their knowledge of Creature Hunting.

Mira got to be in a calm place with a view to the world. While Levana was in darkness and her anger grew and grew.

The items were taken to the village of Gaimount, to be kept locked away by two Dragonborn loyal to The Enchantress Ezmia.

Someone, a passing adventure, travelling within The Pitcher tavern stole the items, returning them, as requested, to hut within the marsh.
Those Dragonborn seek to return the Mirror and the Book to their village, and it is said only followers of The Wild Mother can traverse the Feywild Expanse without issues.

Trapped in the mirror Mira has remained calm and clear headed; having to only speak the truth. Meanwhile, trapped as the book, the already fiery, Levana has grown bitter and knows if released will be dangerous.
