Morningtide to Everdark

Morningtide to Everdark is a book discovered in the Fomorian Citadel of Moorcrown within the Feywild.

## Description

Seemingly a guide of sorts, Morningtide to Everdark details some of the key locations (as chosen by the author Tald Peakscorn) in the Feywild. Confounding however, is the numbering system of the book, with pages shifting back and forth in contents with a certain unpredicability - flipping a page back and forth seems to completely change the page's textual contents and imagery.

*Many say with the utmost confidence that they have never travelled the Planes of this eminent existence, many more still say they have not stepped foot within the Feywild - but to them I say simply this. Balderdash! The Planes of Existence influence every aspect on the Prime Material Plane, and most mortal souls feel this most so with regard to the Feywild, a place of exaggerated truths and heightened treachery alike. For those more curious of the true nature of the Feywild tied close to Ahlus then truly look no further - for you have all the guide you may need in your possession already.*

*The first matter worth addressing is undoubtedly dealings with time. In the Prime Material Plane, the passage of time is by definition marked by the transition of day-to-night, night-to-day. In the Feywild, no such transition occurs. Some regions are locked into eternal day - The Everbright - and others eternal night - The Everdark. Between each exist Morningtide, a place of new dawns and long shadows, and Twiblight, perpetually on the verge of dusk and home to contentment and trepidation both. Many residents and creatures readily pass between the regions freely, though there are those that linger, unwilling or unable to travel elsewhere - and so are bathed in perpetual sunlight or gloom. The Aldergreen Court, ruled over by Queen Morgaelei the Fair, can be found within the settlement of Aldagrelithane, a city as much the forest itself as within the forest is one such location in the Everbright, elsewise the sylandine that haunt and hunt in the bogs and mires of Trillow may never see but the moon when gazing skyward.*

*Should you ever find yourself wandering in the Feywild - a feat more easily achieved than most would expected, I assure you! - do consider a visit to Feverfew, where teetering connections to the Elemental Plane of Water attract all manner of nymphs and naiads to play and frolic in delightful displays of grace. The feasts held by the satyrs of Heartfire Dance rival even those of the courts of the Archfey, but woe be unto any of those that refuse to join them in their revelry. Should you find yourself suddenly missing an item underappreciated in the past, then search no further than The Castle of Misplaced Things. It is said that the Archfey that dwells within, the Forgotten Prince, treasures and collects all things unloved and undervalued - but is rare to return what has been claimed should its original owner suddenly have need for it. Visiting the Castle is a perilous task though, for the valley before it is now filled with perpetual flame, a scar borne on the soil and stone by an invasion perpetrated by the Archdevil Moloch following his eviction from the Nine Hells by the Lord of Nessus, leaving him hungry for power and seeking of those able to aid him in his attempts to overthrow his banisher. While his invasion failed, Moloch escaped once more - and so no doubt continues to search for what he so greviously hungers.*
