Uktar 10 1370 Wedding Day of Elminster and the Queen of Agrolond, the Simbul! :
        Harpers Hill is full of guests. At the head of the hill are High Priestess Selphia DragonMaw, Elminster and Lhaeo. Amongst the guest's are the 7 sisters, Khelben Blackstaff, Alexius, Lleirea, Randolf and his wife Elmara, Whisper, Valaria , the Lord  and Lady of ShadowDale, the knights of myth drannor, folk from town, Agrolond peoples (many being mages of skill), and  of course the heroes were present! On duty were many many guards and personal apprentices of the Simbul (that she hand chose from Agrolond) to watch the perimeter of Harpers Hill, and to magical examine each guest for evil and magic.
        Once the Simbul appeared after her 5 spell maids layed the path before her, awe  fell across the crown assembled. Teh Queen of Agralond was beautifully dressed  on her wedding night, in a moonstone studded bodice, a layered gown, and a flowing enchanted cloak of white mists! Power emanated from her very presence and her pores!
    Lorthois was assaulted during the ceremony  by an elven woman who accidently bumped into him, then he felt a prick on his  neck and pulled out a  needle, that he instantly knew to be laced with some foul poison as he felt instant feitness and pain. Though his system was able to ward off the foulest of the poison and attempted to call attention to the vanishing elven assassin, but suddenly out of nowhere twin shape shifting beings that Whisper declares to be known as the Maulogrym, appear (one was taking the form of a tree, and the other as a guest) and they begin to hurl powerful offensive spells...though only to be shocked to find every single spell hurled harmlessly sucked instantlly into the moonstones stitched into the Witch Queens bodice! The chaos breaks loose as several of the 7 sisters  weave magic to protect the innocent, and the spell maids, Elminster, the Queen, Khelben and Whisper all  weave magic against the deadlly assassins! Within a few quick spells the  two maulogrym realize they are overmatched and teleport away!
    An enraged Queen, commands in a booming voice  that could be heard nearly a full mile away from harpers hill for everyone amongst the crowd  to be "SILENT"! Then she dared anyone to leave the gathering, then turned back to Selphia and  the ceremony continued without incident! and so King Elminster and Queen Simbul vanish amongst motes of white magic.
    Whisper is clearly somewhat depressed by the entire wedding (thinking back to her own wedding and her deceased husband) and is very snappy and quick with her friends and daughter. Valaria in bitter , childish rebellion, seeks to get  even with her mothers rudness by inviting a large party back to the outside of the tower (of course  starting the party in the old skull inn and working a  few kegs of ale back to the tower after finishing a keg at the inn itself!).

Uktar 11 1370; start of wintery days!!!
    Morning comes , and a light snow begins to fall as the temprature  has dropped somewhat drastically. A knock on the front door of the  tower  beckons Marylax to allow in a man by the name of Gecko, looking to be a seasoned warrior, whom is seeking Whisper. Whisper  comes down (in a foul mood, due to the sight of her daughters rebellious party), and is quite rude to Gecko, but in the end when he mentions needing her friends to aid him on a journey, (and after asking if it "would be deadly and possibly fatal", him replying "yes", then followed by her sarcastic, "sure their yours then" remark). Whisper then proceeds to roughly awaken her friends from their  sleeps to meet with Gecko to see if they'd  be willing to journey with him. The addventures all agreed to it, except for Jaun whom has prior arrangements to stay at Randolfs warriors guild in Waterdeep to learn the proper techniques of war hammer use in battle. And Karranna was  also not present due to the fact she was no longer even within the  tower walls as she had been (due to Mystra's graces) "taken" to Waterdeep to the temple there!
