The Cave Mother wanted it delivered to her lover Grumbar, at his underground temple in the Underchasm, to prove that she truly wished him to remain on Toril after the Second Sundering.
At the same time, the goddess Shar sought to separate Luthic and Grumbar, by sharing their dalliance with Luthic's mate Gruumsh and preventing delivery of the Eye, in order to carry out the Cycle of Night.
In Uktar of that year, Joelle and Malik took the Eye of Gruumsh to Marsember where they joined up with Kleef Kenric and Arietta Seasilver. The group carried the relic across the Sea of Fallen Stars to the lands of the Vilhon Reach, through the Chondalwood, and into Grumbar's temple within the earthmote known as Sadrach's Spire.
