The seventh age is ending and a Convergence is coming.
There is some sort of ceremony that will occur that will dictate which elemental power is ascendant during the eight eighth age.
The Polonians (water) and the Orcs and their allies (fire) have all sorts of knowledge about the what the Convergence is and what it entails. The Lyceum Arcanium has none.
The Polonian invasion of The Riding and the Orcish incursions westward are all associated with the coming Convergence, but other than indicating the importance of The Riding, the details are unknownwhat they are seeking is unknown. Only that The Riding is important is apparent.
The Elves should be supporting the elemental power of earth, but they are missing, and the duty of supporting the currently ascendant earth falls to the Lyceum. And perhaps the party if they will join forces.
...
Having run out of places to look for information in The Riding, the Lyceum Arcanium has identified the Fey Library in the Feywild as a potential source of information.
However, every party they have sent through their magic mirror to the Feywild over the last decade has never not returned.your
There is one exception: a member of an a past expedition named Loomis Erstand that returned only days after passing over but thought that he had been gone for years. He claimed to have traded his two amputated fingers and the color blue for a key piece of information that he would not divulge.
Loomis had has fled east into Orcish territories.
Given the option to search for Loomis and gain clues about what he learned and how he succeeded in escaping back through the Feywildmirror, the party chooses instead to dive through the mirror and into the Feywild.
...
The party meets an adventurer named Sei that may have been part of a previous expedition. He has spent an unknown amount of time attempting to map the Feywild, but his map makes no sense. He follows the party.
Next, the party meets a cambion Cambion under the influence of three dryads Dryads that force him to play hide-and-seek with them. The party uses its wits - and Rhagal’s potion of flying - to track the three dryads down and get . The Cambion, is gratitude, offers information about the location of the library. The info: “Walk away from the sun until it is almost dark, then turn right and walk until you reach a lake. The library is on the short shore of the lake.”
Finally, the party does battle with a pod of snakes that were living in the remnants of a dead body hanging from a tree. The snakes repeatedly hoist Hurodash into the air and attempt to strangle him, but the party comes to his defense and kills them.
