The Ties That Bind

It has been a little over a decade since the Spellplague came to an end. The once peaceful and drowsy Dalelands have become distrustful and unwelcoming; with good reason. The last, covert, vestiges of Sembian (and thus Netherese) influence have been expulsed from the region and the people of the Dales have begun to rebuild and heal.   However, stories spread of strange activity deep in Cormanthor; and the waters of the Sea of Fallen Stars, while replenished by the Great Rain, have been increasingly dangerous to travel. All the while, amongst scholars and practitioners of the arcane arts, rumours abound that something is not quite right with the Weave.
