Excerpt from Yinmaris' notebook post-adventure:
So this last week has been wild! Firstly Raine asked me to go on an adventure to do with a temple in the Feywilds but we needed help so we got assistance from a cat wizard called Mittens and then we met a guy with a load of birds called Crow and went through a portal got to see the legend Kruxeral again, Raine promised him in the Wilds which was hilarious! Rookie error, HA. Then we got to go to see the temple and meet some interesting knowy types like an old centaur who seemed in chargecalled Arthur or Arthala whose name begins with an A.
Anyway Raine knew a bit about the temple, like the fact that weird symbol that Glint told me Prideborn wore looked like the same one as a symbol found in the Temple. Anyway I found out a bit about Corellon from the other's and the old Centaur because of a mural that had his symbol and the image of us eladrins' origin as some kind of exiled elven people. One group stayed and the others left for the Material Plane I think. After this we went through a few different rooms and found ourselves in a prison area with Cold Iron doors which concerned me a bunch! So we learned that there was a door on the other side that had 2 lock one silver and one gold and we needed to look for the keys. After some search of the prison rooms where we found a wobbly air jelly thing called a Gelatinous Cube which was apparently not great to touch, then a goblin was in another but the important ones were this cell with a secret library where I found a wizardy book that I gave to Mittens and Mittens found a book about his people, a Fey Tabaxi tribe or something. Anyway Raine didn't like the idea of Mittens taking the book, what a buzzkill! So later on I took it and gave it to Mittens after he saved my life but that's for later.
So after the library we found a cell with a really condescending wooden statue, I ignored what he was saying after he talked like father, and after a fiery chat he divulged the place of one of the keys and we in turn brought him to people. So we gave the statue a new home by a campfire! And even better by the campfire was a satyr who hated the statue and it hated him, oh the bickering was hilarious! Anyway we went to the first key location, a mushroom forest cavern, we met some dark fey and I don't say that lightly. They were led by a flirty fey called Karrak, she's kinda hot but gave bad vibes, and after sassing Raine and saying some worrying stuff about Kruxeral (that I will not write but will tell him in person) so they served something I didn't know but didn't seem great and we fought. I killed my first person today, I killed a fey in the Wilds they can't come back from that but it was her or me, and another one took me down and Crow saved me but he was worse emotionally than I was, I must have been in shock I don't know but I felt it later when we finally got to rest. I don't think Crow likes me but I tried. Anyway Crow saved me with a bitter berry and Mittens patched me up with a milk healing potion and I gave him the Tabaxi book as an exchange, so we're now buddies especially after we go get some Shake Milk, apparently they have all kinds of flavours. I'll try to get each colour of the rainbow Shake Milks as an ode to Raine!
After the fight Raine killed a mushroom tree that I think screamed which makes sense now... after some weird seasonal stuff with the sun dial including Raine tripping on spores and gas spores about to go BOOM, I stopped the gas spores by changing seasons but also Raine maybe called me hot but that's for another day to unpack, It's true but unexpected from Raine but I guess when high these things happen. After getting to Summer again we went to a cave and met some lovely people called Myconids led by a good vibes mushroom guy called MogMog, they communicated to us through our thoughts and they talk to each other with such a beautiful melody! After some serious honestly by Raine they understood the tree was a small price to pay for stopping the bad vibe fey. Raine and I played some music for them as they had heard new music in so long and they loved it! I brought the Song to a place abandoned by it and it felt amazing.
We found a chest with a cool necklace that ws beautiful and everyone let me have it, Mittens has books I guess and Crow has a shroom stone thing. All in all it was a great time, I feel like I'm doing okay about what happened to the fey I slew because there was no option other us dying and the Myconids said they were dark servants. The being they serve concern me, that and also the keys were from the outside which means it was closed to keep stuff in and not out which is ominous especially with this weird symbol link. Anyway I've been learning the basic stuff about Corellon, their vibes seem like something I can get behind but I want to learn more before commiting myself to a god, also I just realised I saw their arrow in the Shadowfell, maybe that's a fun coincidence but I want to know where elvenkind came from and why Corellon exiled all of us and not just the ones that followed Lolth.

Letter from Yinmaris to Queen Queen Merla, the Sun-Blessed
Your Majesty,
I hope this letter reaches you well, I write to you with some updates. Firstly, Raine is doing great and we went to the Temple of All Seasons with other adventurers, we investigated the next area of the temple which was a cold iron prison. We met some lovely folks called Myconids and brought Song to them, concerningly we encountered fey that the Myconids called Dark Servants who in our conversation with them seemed to be of a more malevolent vibe and wished to get through the same door as us which had two keys. We had to fight them and I slew one with the horn that the flying elephant angel of Selune gifted me. It was the first time I've killed someone, other times it's been demons or devils going back to their plane of existence but this time it was a fey in the Wilds. It's odd I do feel guilt, I know it was the right thing and they were going to do what they did with us to the Myconids and I think there were kid Myconids, some were very small and adorable. But they were a person all the same.
We obtained one key from the lovely Myconid leader called MogMog in exchange for a beautiful duet by Raine and I, we returned the key to the head researcher. I have also been told about the fact a symbol that seems to be popping up around the place including Kundar around the neck of Matthias Prideborn also seems to be linked to the Temple as others found the symbol there. I'll keep you updated about this as it does seem weird that the Temple is ancient but the other symbols have been popping up recently, maybe a clue with the what the symbols mean is down in the temple.
Back to business, I do plan on returning to the Temple soon, I'm intrigued about what the Temple is, it may not be a temple especially considering there's a prison there. One concern I have is that the keys are on the outside which suggested either the people locked something in or were protecting something within but that's part of the intrigue and the mystery. It's rather thrilling!
May your music be enchanting and your days be filled with joy.
Your humble servant,
Yinmaris Iathrana
