The Tears of Endings and Beginnings is a natural marvel located in the Feywild, where the confluence of the Azure and Crimson Rivers cascades down a near mile-high cliff. This magnificent waterfall, blending deep blue and bright red waters, creates a visual spectacle that epitomizes the mystical beauty of the Feywild.
Mythical Properties
The waterfall is not just a sight to behold; it's shrouded in legends and magical properties. It's said that the tears shed at the top of the falls carry the power to alter memories. Those brave enough to plunge with the waters might find their most painful memories erased or long-forgotten moments restored. However, this mystical process is unpredictable and perilous, with no assurances of the outcome or survival from the immense fall into the Lake of Dreams below.
The Lake of Dreams
Survivors of the fall find themselves in the Lake of Dreams, an enigmatic body of water above the Coral Court of Shale Dothore. While the lake's name suggests tranquility, its location near the domain of Baba Yaga means that perils lurk in every shadow. The Mistwood that surrounds it is home to hags and other malevolent beings, making the journey back from the lake a treacherous endeavor, that is, if you survive the fall.
Legacy of King Chronolos
The Tears of Endings and Beginnings is named after an event of profound sadness and resolve. King Chronolos, the once-ruler of the Feywild, is said to have wept at this very spot as he made the heart-wrenching decision to leave his realm for the Material Plane, a journey from which he would never return. His tears, imbued with the sorrow of departure and the hope for a new beginning, are believed to have endowed the waterfall with its unique magical properties.
