Hither of the Feywild
Venture into the Feywild, learning about this mysterious plane while you search for your lost friends.
Area	Goal		Quests & Cinematics
1	Defeat 25 Giant Spiders		While trying to get your bearings, giant spiders attack! Knock them off the roadway!
Gromma:	"Let's help nature along and blow some of this fog away with a little magic. A little seed, a little nudge, a little breath, and tada! Now we have a patch of sky and a peek at the ground."
Bruenor:	"By Moradin's itchy rump, how high up is this road? We'll crack our skulls and kiss tha rocks if we jump!"
Celeste:	"The waters below must flood regularly if they built the causeway way up here. We'll need to find a way to get down safely."
Nat:	"[signs] Look! Look! A balloon! A big balloon with a basket!"
Celeste:	"A hot air balloon? And it's going down! Oh Selûne preserve us -- we need to be sure that the pilot's safe!"
Jarlaxle:	"In this place? The pilot is probably a bullywug. Or a shambling mound. Or a--giant spider!"
Minsc:	"A giant spider would probably be very good at steering an air ship, so long as its legs didn't get tangled up."
Boo:	"Squeak!"
Minsc:	"Oh the giant spiders attacking us! My mistake."
2	Defeat 25 Giant Spiders		More spiders crawl up the sides of the causeway, clicking their hungry jaws! Knock them down before they get you!
Bruenor:	"There's more o' tha beasties comin'. We'll be here 'til nightfall at this rate!"
Celeste:	"Quick! The webbing! If we can catch enough of it, we should be able to fasten it into a rope that will let us climb down. If it's strong enough for those giant spiders to hang on, it should hold us!"
3	Collect 25 Strands of Webbing		The spider webbing is strong enough to make ropes out of. Gather up enough strands to get down from this roadway!
4	Defeat 25 Giant Wolf Spiders		The spiders are hungry and blocking your path. The way down is through the swarm of them!
Celeste:	"Look! The causeway breaks off. We'll have to climb down here and hope the water's not too high. Then we can track down that balloon crash and see if they can guide us! Who can swim?"
Jarlaxle:	"I would worry about that after the spiders! Because it looks like that was just the warm-up!"
5	Defeat the Poison-Spitting Spider		The giant spiders seem tiny beside this big beast! Dodge the poison-spitting spider's venom as you cut it down to size!
Nayeli:	"That seems to be the last of them. Time to test these ropes."
Nat:	"[signs] Yuck -- muddy. I hope Squiddly and Jenks are NOT here. It stinks."
Gromma:	"Oh hatchling, the mud is full of rich nutrients for the plants. Some of which come from decaying plants themselves! Which, interestingly enough, is what you're smelling! The circle of life."
Ellywick:	"This is all very odd. This doesn't feel like Prismeer at all. Seems Kettlesteam's concerns about her patron were well-founded -- Zybilna can't possibly be in charge anymore."
Celeste:	"Mr. Witch and Mr. Light might have tricked us and sent us to some other kingdom of the Feywild. That makes it even more necessary to seek out information. The balloon went down in that direction -- what in the world?"
Bruenor:	"More rabbits!"
Harengon:	"I beg your pardon? Do we look like rabbits?"
Bruenor:	"...aye? With, ye know, weapons and such."
Harengon:	"We're not rabbits! We are the harengon! Proud warriors! Fleet fighters! And in case you're confused, this is a robbery. If you resist, we'll beat you black and blue!"
6	Defeat 25 Enemies		The harengon brigands show no signs of backing down. You'll have to fight your way through!
Jebbek:	"What's the holdup? Where's the stuff?"
Harengon:	"Jebbek! We're...Uh, we haven't got it yet. They're putting up a fuss! And they called us rabbits, which was very rude!"
Jebbek:	"Broken planes, do I have to do everything myself? Hand over your memories, travelers, and you can be on your way. We've got a quota to meet and you've got places to be."
Celeste:	"Our memories? Your pardon, Mistress Harengon --"
Jebbek:	"Look, round-ears, I can tell you're new here. Fell through a portal? Well you're in Hither now, the realm of Slack-Jawed Lorna, and everyone has to give the hag her due. She has a deal with my boss, my boss has a deal with me, and now I'm making a deal with you: think of the best gift you've ever received and give me the memory of that delight. Quick-quick!"
Jarlaxle:	"...Couple of questions. How exactly are you going to collect memories?"
Jebbek:	"Is this jack for real? In a gourd of course! Put your hand on the gourd, think the memory, I take it, you go on your way and try not to get robbed again. Or are you going to put up a fight again? Do you need a moment to decide?"
Celeste:	"Oh we are well decided. You're not taking anything, thief!"
7	Defeat 25 Enemies		If the harengon defeat you, they'll steal your memories! Don't let these rascally brigands get the upper hand!
8	Defeat 25 Enemies		Those snipers have you trapped behind that rotten log -- break through it and try to claim the high ground!
9	Defeat 25 Enemies		This is a swamp -- there is no high ground! And the harengon have giant flies on their side! Beat them back!
Jebbek:	"What is you people's problem? This is an ecosystem -- you pay us, we pay Bavlorna. You're just going to make Bavlorna mad in the end. Do you want that? No, you don't."
Ellywick:	"This place, it was Prismeer once, don't deny it."
Jebbek:	"Did I literally not just say you don't want to make Bavlorna mad? Did those words not just come out of my mouth? It's worth my job to talk about Prismeer. And it's worth more if I don't make my quota, so put your hand on the gourd and give me those memories already!"
10	Defeat Jebbek		Jebbek won't let you by without a fight -- show her why you're the Champions!
Bruenor:	"Blasted rabbitfolk ran off!"
Celeste:	"But that's confirmation enough that we are indeed in Prismeer -- or what remains of it. Bavlorna was the commander the lornlings spoke of. A hag?"
Ellywick:	"The first of our Hourglass Coven I suspect. Shall we continue tracking down that pilot?"
Jarlaxle:	"Somehow, this might be worse than the blizzard. I have sailed the Sea of Swords and I don't think my boots have ever been this wet."
Bruenor:	"Aye, we're in agreement there. I much prefer the snow to this -- by Moradin! What was that? A geyser? Spewin' MORE water inta this swamp? Is it fulla...trinkets?"
Will-o'-Wisps:	"It's not a geyser, silly, it's an O'Well! Where do you think the water comes from? Are you coming to see it? It's right here, but don't take my stuff! You could add more stuff if you wanted? But don't take mine!"
Celeste:	"You don't want us to follow you somewhere? Perhaps into danger?"
Will-o'-Wisps:	"No? Why would I do that? My stuff's HERE. Ohhhh wait...You're from the boring world, aren't you? The whatsit...the prime material! Those will-o'-wisps do that. They don't have stuff I think. Poor lil' guys."
Celeste:	"Right, well, we're not going to take your...stuff. But we are looking for someone who might have come down with that balloon that crashed earlier. Have you seen anyone walking around here?"
Will-o'-Wisps:	"Yes! Over there! On the other side of that marsh gas where the giant spiders are. The one screaming 'help! help! I'm gonna get eaten!' Is that who you're looking for?"
11	Defeat 25 Enemies		The swamp is full of dangers! Spiders and marsh gas, oh my!
Jenks:	"Thank you thank you thank you! I thought they were going to eat me!"
Jarlaxle:	"Jenks?!"
Jenks:	"AHHH! You found me! Hooray!"
Celeste:	"Jenks! Thank the Moonmaiden you're safe!"
Jenks:	"I mean, sort of? I don't know. This place is really weird."
Jenks:	" ...so I woke up here, and I couldn't find Squiddly and I didn't see the door again, so I started walking around, trying to keep track of where I'm going -- I drew a map on this piece of bark, see? I found this weird city and a tower that's falling over and a rock that looks like a frog with a chicken sleeping on its head."
Minsc:	"A noteworthy landmark."
Jenks:	"But I couldn't find Squiddly. I've just been walking around here, trying not to get lost. I saw a balloon go down and thought it might be Squiddly and -- Erp!"
Celeste:	"Jenks!"
Nayeli:	"SNIPERS! Take cover!"
Celeste:	"Where is he? Where'd he go?"
Nat:	"[Signs] Where? Where? Where?"
Nayeli:	"He just... disappeared when that crossbow bolt hit him. We'll find him Nat, don't worry."
12	Defeat 25 Enemies		You're under attack -- and only those harengon might know what happened to Jenks!
Harengon Sniper:	"Ow! Ow! Ow! Put me down, lady!"
Nayeli:	"If you want to walk away from here, you're going to answer some questions! Where's the boy you shot?!"
Harengon Sniper:	"What boy? I was aiming for the gnome."
Nayeli:	"You hit a human boy, right there, and he vanished. Where did you send him? Where is the tiefling boy who came here with him? Talk!"
Harengon Sniper:	"Ow! Hey! All right! Look...look I didn't tell you this but...Zybilna protects children in...you know, her realm. I don't know anything about a tiefling boy, but if he got hurt too, he just...didn't. The magic pulled him away and he's safe. Both of them are safe."
Celeste:	"We were told Zybilna was no longer in charge here."
Harengon Sniper:	"Yeah, well, no longer in charge doesn't mean completely without power, now does it? I mean, you saw it with your own eyes. If you want to know more than that, you're going to have to talk to someone else -- I'm already risking too much. But the Inn comes by here soon. Tsu at the inn can tell you more."
Nayeli:	"Blech! That bubble popped on me and now my mouth tastes like the bottom of a horse's foot! Ugh!"
Minsc:	"I [hiccup] don't [hiccup] notice any [hiccup] taste. [hiccup]"
Boo:	"Squeak! [hiccup]"
Minsc:	"Yes, Boo. [hiccup] There [hiccup] are the [hiccup] hiccups. Those [hiccup] did [hiccup] start after [hiccup] a bubble [hiccup] popped."
Celeste:	"Fascinating. The marsh gas seems to have different effects depending on some unknown factor. We should gather some up to conduct tests on. Which kind makes the foul taste, which kind makes the hiccups --"
Jarlaxle:	"Blurdlegurgledoodle glabloodle-bargleargle."
Celeste:	"Uhhhh...also that third one. That one seems like we need to fix it now."
13	Collect 25 Samples of Marsh Gas		The mysterious marsh gas has many effects -- capture some to figure out how to get back to normal!
14	Defeat 25 Enemies		The stink of the marsh gas has lured giant flies! Cut them down before they carry you off!
Gromma:	"I am deeply concerned for Jenks and Squiddly, but I am so glad to share the beauty of the swamp with you, fellow champions!"
Jarlaxle:	"The swamp is gross and I hate it. It smells terrible and everything is rotting."
Celeste:	"Well, Gromma has a point. Death begets life. What rots feeds what grows. You have to admit that's just nature."
Jarlaxle:	"I'm not denying it. I'm saying all of nature is gross and I hate it."
Gromma:	"One drow's gross is another tortle's beautiful rebirth of vitality."
Bruenor:	"Oi, an' how 'bout yon gelatinous cube rearin' up out o' that well?"
Gromma:	"Oh my shell, no, that is gross and we should destroy it."
15	Defeat the Gelatinous Cube		That gelatinous cube is lurching toward you! Cut it down to size before it engulfs the whole formation!
Celeste:	"Look! On the water over there! There's a building! That might be the inn the harengon directed us to."
Nayeli:	"Is it...moving?"
Jarlaxle:	"It IS moving and it has LEGS."
Selise:	"Does it have a bathtub is the more important question?"
Jarlaxle:	"I'm going to say the leg question is the most important. Things with legs that aren't supposed to have legs generally mean we've got problems, and there's probably a wizard with too much time on their hands involved."
Nayeli:	"Well it's coming this way, so we can ask very soon. But we'll have to deal with the creatures between us first!"
16	Defeat 25 Enemies		Flies and marsh gas block your way to the strange inn! Cut a path to your destination!
Tsu:	"Jelly Cube O'Well stop! You have ten minutes to disembark! You lot, back up, while the...oh, well, I guess no one wants to get off here. Well, are you coming aboard?"
Celeste:	"That depends, ma'am. Are you Tsu? The proprietor of this Inn?"
Tsu:	"I am indeed and this is the Inn at the End of the Road. But like I said, we stop for ten minutes, and then we're off again, so if you're getting on, you better do so...there's an awful lot of you to get up the stairs...But we have the room if you have the payment!"
Jarlaxle:	"What sort of payment? The last person who asked for payment wanted us to put memories in a gourd."
Celeste:	"We'll figure it out after. Get on the inn!"
Nayeli:	"We'll have to..ugh...dodge around...this [hiccup] marsh gas, oorblegoobleblargle!"
Bruenor:	"Pop 'em quick! I dinna wanna be babblin' nonsense again!"
17	Defeat 25 Marsh Gas Bubbles		The marsh gas is thick around the door. Pop those bubbles so you can get inside!
Tsu:	"Well that was exciting! Welcome to the Inn at the End of the Road. We'll be underway shortly so pile on in. Make yourselves comfortable."
Tsu:	"Excuse the mess -- but what's not messy around here these days? Far sight from things when Zybilna was in charge, that's for sure. Blasted rats! Shoo! In Zybilna's time, this inn was the talk of Prismeer."
Celeste:	"That's what we wanted to talk to you about. Someone suggested you would be willing to tell us what happened to Prismeer, and where our young friends might have ended up. We're here to help, but we can't do much if no one tells us what's going on."
Tsu:	"You're gonna help? How? You planning to fight three hags at once? Ouch! Argh, you rats! This was never a problem when Zybilna was running things!"
Nayeli:	"Three hags is within our skills, most definitely. I expect you didn't count but there's nearly a hundred of us."
Celeste:	"Are you speaking of the Hourglass Coven? Is that who -- Yikes! The rats are getting feisty!"
Tsu:	"Yeah, gonna have to put a hold on this conversation to take care of my inn."
Nayeli:	"Never fear -- giant rats are also well within our skills!"
18	Collect 25 Giant Rat Tails		Help Tsu clear the Inn at the End of the Road of rats! Collect their tails so you can keep a count!
Tsu:	"That ought to give them pause. I tell you, never once did I have to worry about anybody or anything breaking the rules of conduct while Zybilna was in charge. Now it's every day! So if you're going to take down the coven, I'll give you all room and board and take you where you need to go -- I want Zybilna back in charge bad."
Celeste:	"Wonderful! Do you know where she might be?"
Tsu:	"Not a clue. I might try the palace, since that's where she OUGHT to be. But you're gonna have to go through all the realms to get there."
Nayeli:	"What about the balloon that crashed near here? Did you pick up the pilot?"
Tsu:	"Nah, that's farther on. Looks like it went down near Slanty Tower. We won't get there until tomorrow. Got stops to make between here and there."
Jarlaxle:	"Any chance the rats are getting off at those stops? Because they're already back!"
19	Defeat 25 Giant Rats		Oh that made the rats angry--stop their renewed assault!
20	Defeat the Giant One Eyed Rat		The rats have summoned their leader to deal with you! Fight the giant one-eyed rat so you can get some rest!
Tsu:	"Now then, you said you had a young friend you couldn't find? A kid?"
Celeste:	"Yes, two of them. A human boy and a tiefling boy -- Jenks and Squiddly. We found Jenks by the o'well, but he was hit by one of the harengons and disappeared. That brigand said Zybilna protects children."
Tsu:	"Of course she does! She's like a fairy godmother! No children come to harm in Prismeer...but I can't say as I know where you'll find them. That balloon crash looked like it was sailing out from Slack-Jawed Lorna's stronghold in Downfall. You find that pilot, you might learn some things that would help a great deal. Why don't you lot take a short rest. I'll let you know when the inn gets to Slanty Tower."
Tsu:	"Slanty Tower Stop coming up! Line up for disembarkment!"
Celeste:	"Thank you again, Tsu, for all your help and hospitality."
Tsu:	"That's how we do things in Prismeer -- when it WAS Prismeer. Besides, if you're gonna show Bavlorna the portal back to her home plane, you're all friends of mine! My inn hasn't had dry feet in goodness knows how long."
Jarlaxle:	"Maybe you ought to fit it with some boots."
Tsu:	"You ever try to get a magical inn to wear shoes? Easier to throw the Hourglass Coven out. Well here's your stop, so -- What in all the broken planes! Rats!"
Bruenor:	"Musta chased tha inn along!"
Tsu:	"Shoo! Shoo! You're not getting back on!"
21	Defeat 25 Giant Rats		The rats are trying to get back onto the inn! Don't let them through the door!
Tsu:	"All right, let's try this again. Slanty Tower Stop! Now disembarking!"
Jarlaxle:	"What tower? There's nothing here?"
Tsu:	"What do you think this is, a teleportation circle? It's an inn walking on water. We're near the destination, and that's good enough. Walk to the west for a bit. We pass through here more or less twice a day, so if you're alive when we do, we'll pick you back up! But for all our sakes, I hope you've taken care of Bavlorna by then."
Jarlaxle:	"Wonderful. More slogging through mud."
Celeste:	"But closer to our goal. Let's go."
22	Defeat 25 Enemies		Crocodiles and giant flies! Fight your way toward slanty tower without getting eaten!
Nat:	"[signs] If I had a crocodile, I would ride it around the harbor and make it scare sailors."
Minsc:	"It is good for a child to have a faithful animal companion."
Boo:	"Squeak!"
Nat:	"[signs] I would train it to bite that one mean swordcaptain and eat zombies for Jenks. Chomp! Chomp! Chomp!"
Minsc:	"This is the best idea I have heard in days. We are doing this! Yes!"
Celeste:	"Wait, what?"
Boo:	"Squeak!"
Minsc:	"An egg for Nat! No wait: an army of eggs for Nat! One is good, TWENTY-FIVE is best!"
23	Collect 25 Crocodile Eggs		Collect crocodile eggs for Nat to hatch into a crocodile army! What could go wrong?
24	Defeat 25 Enemies		The waters between here and the Slanty Tower are thick with foes! Clear a path!
Celeste:	"Nat, I know you want an animal companion, but you can't hatch all these eggs. You can barely carry them. We should put them back and we can...discuss the crocodile later."
Nat:	"[signs] I'll put them back. I want a grown-up crocodile anyway. Like that one."
Minsc:	"Hey, that one is big enough for you and Jenks and Squiddly to ride! And it looks like a fighter! Great for eating zombies! Good choice!"
Boo:	"Squeak!"
Bruenor:	"Aye, I think it's gonna try ta eat US!"
25	Defeat the Battle Scarred Crocodile		That big crocodile has seen a lot of battle! Show it what it's missed!
Celeste:	"Nat, are you all right?"
Nat:	"[signs] Sad -- I don't get to ride the monster crocodile."
Celeste:	"I think you might have had some trouble keeping it."
Nat:	"[signs] I think it could have adapted."
Minsc:	"Do not worry, Nat. The Feywild is said to be filled with strange and terrible creatures. I'm sure we'll find you a companion worthy of your warrior's spirit."
Celeste:	"...let's discuss this later. The tower's up ahead."
26	Defeat 25 Enemies		You'll never find the pilot if you can't get past these flying snakes and crocodiles! Cut them down!
Bruenor:	"So we've got three hags, and only one's rulin' this mess. Do ya think they've carved Prismeer inta three parts?"
Jarlaxle:	"I hope they don't get progressively muddier."
Celeste:	"If it's any consolation, of the three thieves at the Witchlight Carnival, only the lornlings seemed happy to be in the mud."
Jarlaxle:	"Oh good! So we have the lands of creepy undead children and smug shadows to look forward to!"
27	Defeat 25 Flying Snakes		More flying snakes? Don't let them get in your hair! Knock them out of the sky!
Bruenor:	"I dinna like snakes when they're on tha ground, ye best believe I dinna like them when they're flyin'!"
Celeste:	"It's an interesting creature. I've heard the Zhentarim use them to carry messages over far distances. They nestle in their handler's collars."
Bruenor:	"Lass, yer not helpin'. I dinna like flyin' snakes inside clothin' tha most!"
Celeste:	"Well, their wings are also a powerful component in a ritual I've always wanted to try."
Bruenor:	"Thas more like it! I def'nitely prefer chopped down snakes."
28	Collect 25 Flying Snake Wings		Celeste can use those snake wings for a very rare ritual. Gather up enough to help her out!
Nat:	"[signs] Can I have a flying snake? What do they eat? Can I command a whole swarm of them?"
Minsc:	"That would be impressive! A whole flock of flying snakes!"
Bruenor:	"Nay!"
Nayeli:	"Definitely not."
Nat:	"[signs] Maybe they eat mice. That's easier than crocodiles. I don't know what crocodiles eat, except maybe zombies?"
Minsc:	"Oh that is a good point -- the flying snakes would not help with zombies. I suggest you keep looking."
29	Defeat 25 Enemies		More snakes dive at you to prevent you reaching the tower, trying to push you into the marsh gas again! Hold your ground!
Nayeli:	"Look! There's the basket from the balloon. It's hanging from the top of the tower!"
Jarlaxle:	"It won't be hanging long. That tower's about to fall over. And no wonder -- you can't build on mud!"
Celeste:	"All the more reason we should get right up to that tower!"
Lonely Voice:	"Psst. You there, I require assistance!"
Bruenor:	"Did ya hear that? It's comin' from tha basket up there."
Jarlaxle:	"Well, at least we finally found the pilot."
Bruenor:	"Oi! Are ye all right up there!? Can ye hear me?! Shout down if ye can hear me!!"
Jarlaxle:	"Well the flying snakes heard you just fine! They're all heading this way."
30	Defeat the Flying Snake Swarm		Oh no! It's a swarm of flying snakes! And they're attacking all together -- the snakes are cooperating! Show them how it's done!
Lonely Voice:	"Perhaps we can try this a BIT quieter this time, if you don't mind?"
Lonely Voice:	"Your pardon? I'm trapped up here. Could you help me down?"
Nayeli:	"Right, who do we have that's good at climbing?"
Spurt:	"I used to climb with my brother. Before he got eaten!"
Shandie:	"Sit down, I got it."
Black Viper:	"Straight up five stories to a dangling basket where a well-spoken gentleman awaits on a precarious perch? This is my specialty -- cover me, I'm going in."
31	Defeat 25 Enemies		Snakes and spiders -- creepy crawly! Fend them off while you get to the pilot!
32	Defeat 25 Enemies		Black Viper has a plan, but it does not involve all these snakes and spiders -- take them out!
Black Viper:	"Here we are, safe and sound, and none the wiser...well, specifically, the basket didn't fall. May I introduce, Sir Talavar, of the Summer Court?"
Sir Talavar:	"Terribly pleased to make your acquaintances. Although I'm afraid I must trouble you further. Time is of the essence, you see...I say, is that Ellywick Tumblestrum? Bard extraordinaire?"
Ellywick:	"Why yes! Have we met?"
Sir Talavar:	"Not as such, but I recall your performance for the Summer Queen. I was in the audience as Her Majesty's retainer. You were magnificent!"
Ellywick:	"Why thank you! It was Her Majesty who gifted me this lute, you know?"
Sir Talavar:	"Is that Morningmist? My goodness! This bodes very well indeed! If Her Majesty entrusted you with such an item of power, then it is wise for me to trust you as well. And I am in desperate need of allies."
Sir Talavar:	"You see, I am one of the Summer Queen's most loyal servants. I was sent here to see why the ruler of Prismeer, the archfey Zybilna, had not responded to any of Her Majesty's missives. But when I arrived, I was captured by a foul hag and trapped in this cage!"
Sir Talavar:	"I was in the midst of a daring escape from the vile Bavlorna Blightstraw, when the balloon was set upon by an ill wind and sent plummeting to earth. My cage is still locked tight, the key -- as best I can discern -- lies with a goblin somewhere east of here, and I am desperate to report what's happened here."
Celeste:	"If you were captured by Bavlorna, you can point us in her direction."
Sir Talavar:	"...yes, but do you really want to go there? Downfall is a terrible, unpleasant place."
Nayeli:	"The best way to defeat someone is to first find them, so yes, very much."
Bruenor:	"Hold that thought -- we're surrounded again!"
Celeste:	"Oh wolf spiders! I could use some of their eyes for a spell!"
33	Collect 25 Spider's Eyes		More hairy wolf spiders skitter down from the tower! Knock back those spiders and collect some components for Celeste!
34	Defeat 25 Giant Wolf Spiders		These spiders are endless! Squash them before they overrun you!
35	Defeat the Skull Face Spider		A huge spider, marked by a skull, lowers itself from the tower into the midst of the smaller wolf spiders! Take these arachnids out!
Minsc:	"What is it, Nat? Why are you staring at Sir Talavar?"
Nat:	"[signs] Not as good as a crocodile for eating zombies, but he has a sword and he is so pretty. Will you ask him if he'll be my pet?"
Minsc:	"Not a 'pet.' That which talks is not a 'pet.' A companion, you mean."
Boo:	"Squeak!"
Minsc:	"Or yes, when they are as indispensable as Boo is, 'partner' is the better term! Sir Talavar? Might you be looking for a partner in your adventures? My friend Nat here is a very brave warrior, and is looking for a suitable companion. The crocodile didn't work out, you see."
Sir Talavar:	"Oh how kind! My dear, I should be so lucky. But first, perhaps you can help me locate the proper key. I'm of no use to anyone trapped in here."
Nat:	"[signs] I can do that. I'm very good at finding things ... Except Squiddly and Jenks I guess."
Minsc:	"Courage, brave warrior. We've only just begun our search."
Sir Talavar:	"The key, so far as I understand, is in the possession of a goblin named Jingle-Jangle who lives on Telemy Hill."
Bruenor:	"Ah, one o' Bavlorna's minions?"
Sir Talavar:	"Gracious no! She's merely a collector of keys. She's quite good friends with the hill really, and I trust Telemy Hill intrinsically."
Bruenor:	"...She's friends with tha hill?"
Sir Talavar:	"Why of course! You don't expect Telemy Hill to let someone it's not close to just live on it like it's an ordinary prime material lump of earth do you? How very bizarre that would be!"
Nat:	"[signs] Minsc, can I have a hill for a companion?"
Minsc:	"No. You cannot ask a sentient fey hill to live in Waterdeep. It would never be happy."
Nat:	"[signs] Yeah and it couldn't eat a zombie probably. Or those spiders!"
36	Defeat 25 Giant Wolf Spiders		More spiders crawl out of the tilting tower! Crush them before they can carry you off!
Bruenor:	"Where is this hill? Are we headin' the right way?"
Sir Talavar:	"Well it travels, of course, but--"
Bruenor:	"Tha hill moves?"
Sir Talavar:	"...I'm beginning to feel we come from very different worlds, friend dwarf. Yes, of course, Telemy Hill is a sentient hill and it travels as it pleases. Or as much as one can travel in the current state of things -- I assume Bavlorna may have limited it. But fear not! While I was in the air, I spied it's current resting place. We are indeed heading in the correct direction."
Bruenor:	"A blessin' that--but here now, tha path ain't clear this way! We've got mephits incomin'!"
37	Defeat 25 Enemies		The stinking swamp begins spewing mud mephits and giant flies! Don't let them stop you!
38	Defeat 25 Enemies		Those mud mephits don't want to let you pass! Break through the log and stop them!
Nat:	"[signs] I don't want a mephit. Or a giant fly. In case you were going to ask."
Minsc:	"I do not blame you. They both make bad smells and very irritating noises. Neither of which is ideal in an animal companion."
Boo:	"Squeak!"
Nat:	"[signs] Do you think a crocodile would really be so bad? A baby one?"
Minsc:	"I was in favor of the monstrous crocodile. Surely a baby crocodile is a reasonable compromise with Celeste's concerns! You just have to find another egg."
39	Defeat 25 Enemies		Mud mephits flinging great globs of muck! And the flies are back! Cut them down!
40	Defeat the Swarm of Flies		Oh no! You thought the flies were the least of your troubles? This great swarm says otherwise!
Sir Talavar:	"By the Summer Queen's smile, you are fierce fighters! You've gotten us to Telemy Hill! Now to find Jingle-Jangle and get the key!"
Celeste:	"I can't stop thinking about Jenks being hit by that bolt. I believe that he's safe, but I wish I knew where we'd find him and Squiddly."
Sir Talavar:	"Zybilna's magic famously protects children, so you need not fear for their safety, but as for where they might have been whisked away, I cannot guess."
Awakened Willow:	"I mean, if it were me, I'd seek out the palace, I'm just saying."
Celeste:	"What was that? Did the tree speak?"
Awakened Willow:	"Sorry, I'm intruding. It's just most of the conversations I overhear are boring or terribly opaque. Or rude! Three days ago, these horrible harengon brigands showed up, and do you know what they did?"
Harengon Brigand:	"Ambushed you! Hahahaha!"
41	Defeat 25 Enemies		More mud mephits swarm up from the swamp! And those harengon brigands have claimed the high ground! Ready for battle!
Awakened Willow:	"See? What did I tell you? Rude. Anyway, if you lost some kids and they're not turning up where they're supposed to be, you should head for the palace at the center of Prismeer. Or, you know, what used to be Prismeer."
Celeste:	"Thank you greatly, Saer Willow. We came to rescue them but also to find out what happened to Zybilna."
Awakened Willow:	"Ooh, let me know if you find out. I'm very curious. Because you can wander over Hither, Thither and Yon looking for those kids, but your best bet at this point is probably to free Zybilna. She can summon any lost child in Prismeer to her side. So much faster, although fighting through the coven isn't as easy as walking in circles."
Nayeli:	"Straight line through the hags sounds ideal to me!"
Jebbek:	"You're not going anywhere until you've paid the toll! Harengon, attack!"
42	Defeat 25 Harengon Brigands		The harengon have regrouped and are attacking again! Fight them off so you can continue up the hill!
Awakened Willow:	"Stop it with those arrows! Honestly! You know, I heard from the aspen on the other side of the hill that when they showed up, they found poor little Jingle-Jangle hunting truffles in the swamp and robbed her of every morsel! Can you imagine?"
Celeste:	"That's terrible!"
Jarlaxle:	"So you're saying that Jingle-Jangle might appreciate the return of her truffles? Maybe hand over the key we need a little faster if we help her out?"
43	Collect 25 Truffles		Take back Jingle-Jangle's truffles from these harengon thieves!
Bruenor:	"So tree, are ya also friends with tha hill?"
Awakened Willow:	"Yes? Why? Did one of the other trees say something? Ah, oh, I see. Yes, mm-hmm. I'll tell him."
Bruenor:	"Who...who are ye talkin' to there?"
Sir Talavar:	"Telemy Hill of course. How do you think the hill communicates? A mouth?"
Awakened Willow:	"Oh my leaves and catkins, how weird would that be? Can you imagine? Anyway, Telemy Hill says thank you for addressing this harengon issue. It's very worried about Jingle-Jangle."
Sir Talavar:	"You have to excuse them. They're from the other plane. Easily confused."
44	Defeat 25 Enemies		The harengon renew their assault! Thwart their advance!
45	Defeat Jebbek		Jebbek is back and leading the attack! Stop that harengon thief before her brigands overwhelm you!
Bruenor:	"Let that be a lesson to ya!"
Nayeli:	"Clear off and stop robbing people! Surely there are more worthy endeavors!"
Harengon:	"You're new here, aren't you?"
Jebbek:	"This won't be our final battle, Champions! We have a quota to meet! And if you think I'm dealing with Bavlorna's bad mood just because you don't want to pay the toll, think again!"
Celeste:	"Oh, my stars and moonlight! We're so high up! Look at that view! You can see for miles!"
Jarlaxle:	"Miles of swamp."
Gromma:	"Yes, indeed! Miles and miles of swamp! Just look at it!"
Jingle-Jangle:	"HELP! Stop it! You took all Jingle-Jangle's truffles, you're not taking her keys too!"
Harengon:	"Pay the toll, goblin! Silver key or memories -- your call!"
Celeste:	"I see not every brigand got the message they're not welcome. Let's go, Champions!"
46	Defeat 25 Enemies		Poor Jingle-Jangle is being harassed by vultures and brigands! Help a little goblin out and make these scavengers flee into the swamp!
Jingle-Jangle:	"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! You saved Jingle-Jangle and her keys from those long-eared brigands! You are heroes indeed!"
Awakened Willow:	"Exciting, right? I hope I get to tell the trees on the south slope before the hill does."
Jingle-Jangle:	"Yes, yes! Now, how can Jingle-Jangle unlock a little happiness in your day, good heroes?"
Sir Talavar:	"My good Lady Jingle-Jangle--"
Jingle-Jangle:	"Please. Just Jingle-Jangle. Jingle-Jangle is a goblin of the people."
Sir Talavar:	"Very well. Jingle-Jangle -- I have it under good authority that you are in possession of a certain silver key which can unlock this cage I find myself trapped in. Would you kindly oblige me its use?"
Jarlaxle:	"We have a lot of smelly swamp truffles if that helps."
Jingle-Jangle:	"Jingle-Jangle's truffles! Hooray! This is a much better day! But...Oh no! The vultures have smelled the truffles! Shoo! Shoo! You can't take Jingle-Jangle's food!"
47	Defeat 25 Vultures		A flock of vultures descends to make off with more of the goblin's supplies! Defend her and make them look for other prey!
Nat:	"[signs] Minsc, can a vulture carry a person? They just eat trash and dead things right?"
Minsc:	"Hmmm...perhaps? They are very large birds. But you would need a saddle --"
Boo:	"Squeak!"
Minsc:	"Ah, that is a good point. A saddle would get in the way of its wings. Perhaps you could hang from its talons though! And if you hung by your feet, you could also wield an axe at the same time!"
Celeste:	"NO. Minsc, try to set a good example here."
Minsc:	"My apologies, Celeste. You are right. Nat, the swing of your weapon would be compromised badly by being upside-down. No vulture axes. You will have to learn magic."
Jingle-Jangle:	"Let's see, let's see..."
Jarlaxle:	"Might I say that is quite the coat you're modeling, Jingle-Jangle. Did you design it yourself?"
Jingle-Jangle:	"Yes! This is Jingle-Jangle's coat of keys. Only part of her collection, but all very beautiful. And jingly!"
Jarlaxle:	"Indeed. I have to ask, did you name yourself for the sound or did the sound lead you to your love of keys?"
Jingle-Jangle:	"Ah, is a sad story. Jingle-Jangle was always scared of being locked out. Or locked in! Both were very bad. So she asked the hag for help -- a bad idea, Jingle-Jangle knows now. The good news? Jingle-Jangle is no longer afraid of being trapped by a lock! But now she only cares about keys. All the keys!"
Jingle-Jangle:	"Hey! Stop! Stop, you sprites! Is it not bad enough they steal Jingle-Jangle's food, now they are stealing Jingle-Jangle's keys!"
Sir Talavar:	"There's the silver key! Catch it quick!"
48	Collect 25 Lost Keys		Sprites have surged up the hill to steal Jingle-Jangle's keys -- including the one that unlocks Sir Talavar's prison! Get those keys back quick!
49	Defeat 25 Enemies		The sprites and vultures are putting up a fight! You can't unlock the cage while they're attacking you!
Nat:	"[signs] This! This! This!"
Sir Talavar:	"That's the key! Thank you so much, dear girl. Your friends are right, you truly have a warrior's heart. Just unlock the door, and -- there! I'm free!"
Nat:	"[signs] You're welcome. I found the key like you asked?"
Sir Talavar:	"Ah, my dear, I regret I cannot be your companion in your current adventures. I must rush off to the Summer Court to warn the queen, and you must quest to rescue your friends. But here -- take my sword. A warrior needs a weapon, and you have earned this. Perhaps in the future I shall fight by your side again."
Bruenor:	"What a mite of a sword! Looks like a dagger!"
Nat:	"[signs] MY dagger. I love it."
Sir Talavar:	"Thank you again for coming to my aid, Champions. I must hurry now, back to the Summer Court. I will tell the queen all I have learned, and hopefully she will be able to send reinforcements in your battle against the hags."
Celeste:	"And we'll head for Zybilna's castle."
Nayeli:	"After we take out the Hourglass Coven."
Sir Talavar:	"It is a difficult road ahead of you, but I have yet to meet heroes so equal to the task. May the path be -- wait. What is that shadow? That...oh no."
Celeste:	"A roc! It's heading this way! It must be following the vultures! Hurry, Sir Talavar! We'll distract it while you get away!"
50	Defeat the Roc		You've drawn the attention of a roc! Defend Telemy Hill from this monstrous bird!
Celeste:	"Sir Talavar escaped! Let us pray he makes it back to his queen."
Bruenor:	"Aye, and that we make it out o' this swamp."
Minsc:	"I am sorry, Nat, that your hopes for a faerie dragon companion were dashed. We will find you a companion yet, just you wait."
Nat:	"[signs] Minsc, can I tell you a secret? And you won't tell anyone?"
Minsc:	"Of course. If no evil is done by it and no one is hurt. What is it?"
Nat:	"[signs] I thought maybe I wanted something different. And then I thought maybe I just want a pet because I miss Squiddly and Jenks. But now I know I want the crocodile. And that's why I kept one of the eggs in my pocket."
