At a Glance

A small clearing, somewhere in Ardeep Forest, surrounded by a ring of elms. No matter the season outside the glade, it is always spring in the Green Glade. Good-aligned creatures of all races are welcome here, and healing magics are augmented. No path to the glade lasts more than one night.

Reluraun’s Tomb

This information is intended for use with the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game.

At a Glance

Part resting place, part prison, of an elven hero who was twisted into an undead creature in his final battle. Little is left of him but a flying skeletal hands and eyeballs, and a shrieking sourceless voice, but this is enough to let him bring his magical blade to bear against trespassers in his tomb. Fortunately for the unwary, the tomb is hidden in Ardeep Forest, and guarded by baelnorns who turn away all but the most determined seekers of misfortune.

The House of Stone

This information is intended for use with the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game.


At a Glance

An immense square stone tower stands just east of Ardeep Forest, not far from Waterdeep.

Beneath the tower lies the House of Stone, an underground stronghold built by dwarves of Illefarn over a thousand years ago and abandoned since the fall of Phalorm (so, circa 615 DR).

Originally named Stoneturn, it guards Stoneturn Well. The waters of the well arise from a deep Underdark lake called Asmaeringlol. Now that the complex is undefended, many monsters ascend through the well into the House of Stone.
