  • 616 DR [Year of the Ensorceled Kings]

  • The rings that make up the Moonweb (an artifact of Selune) first appeared in the Realms individually, green to devout Selunites by the Shards (servitors of the goddess) in the dark years after the fall of Netheril. They served as minor magical aids and as focal points for prayers to the goddess.

    Eventually, two of the rings are unwittingly brought together in this year when Selunite clergy meet to plan the the future of the faith at Manystreams (an inn run by half elves that stood in a steep-sided lush, wooded valley near Mount Hlim, into which many streams fell, and operated as a meeting place for the beneficent and powerful). Selune appears in the dreams of all the assembled priests, telling them of the four rings and bidding them seek the two missing ones.

    The names and powers of the rings are as follows:

    • Amglaer: Accelerate healing, moonbeam and true seeing, and if one of the other three rings is also worn by the same being who is wearing Amglaer, air walk
    • Enthandas: Dispel magic, water breathing, and water walk (only while natural moonlight is shining ont the water), and, if Shelmroun is also worn by the Same being who is wearing Enthandos, Neutralize poison
    • Shelmroun: Efficacious monster ward, heroes' feast, and moonmotes (identical in all respects to magic missle, unleashing six missles), and, if Tilithar is also worn by the same being who is wearing Shelmroun, heal
    • Tilithar: Fire storm, remove curse, and remove paralysis, and, if Amglaer is also worn by the same being who is wearing Tilithar, restoration.

    The current bearers of the rings Amglaer and Shelmroun, are Randar Rheligonther, Moon Priest of Neverwinter, and Amtheiera Summerdusk, Lunequeen of Danthaldown (a now-vanished Selunite monastary). »

  • Dornal Silverhand suspects that his wife, the half-elf Elue Shundar, is possessed by an evil spirit. His suspicions are confirmed when he asks a local priest for magical divination (the priest not able to know that the possessing spirit was in fact the goddess Mystra). Dornal slays his wife, which is when Mystra reveals herself to him. Devastated by the fact that he had slain his wife, Dornal wanders the realms, searching for his death (although Mystra watches over him and keeps him from it).

    He reaches Turmish, where lurking Red Wizards of Thay recognize the sphere and try to grab him. They hunt him through the streets of Alaghon and Telpir and almost slay him in the woods near Starmantle Bay, but is able to escape with the help of a Harper sorcerer (who changes Lorth's appearance to look older and uglier). Lorth boards a ship bound for Zhentil Keep.

    In Zhentil Keep, Lorth is fortunate to be found by other Harper agents, who take him to the Border Kingdom. The Cult of the Dragon again catches up with him, but escapes when Zhentarim agents also attack. The Harper agents, in desperation, teleports Lorth alone into the heart of the Anauroch desert, to the holy site of Eldath, the House of the Moon.

    There the Green Goddess herself, Eldath, appears to Lorth, and whisks him to Neverwinter (but not before adding a new power to the sphere, and promising to add a new power whenever the sphere is brought back to the House of the Moon in need). Lorth devotes his life to serving Eldath and to bring the wilderness back to those places that has suffered under too many axes, ploughs and fires. »
