Interlude: Dreams of fire and clouds

by Kanénas

After returning to the home of the Druid with my companions we slept and as I slept I dreamed. I was in front of the small shrine to Deneir that dwells in the library of Neverwinter. As I prayed I looked up upon the symbol of the candle and the eye; the sign of Deneir the scribe of Oghma, As I stared up upon his symbol and I saw his eye blink. Suddenly the candle flared and I was sitting upon a stool in the workshop of a blacksmith, He spoke about fire and the art of smithing as he crafted chains made of fire. As he spoke I took notes of his words but more importantly his work and my notes formed a single rune, Fire. He lifted the chains and quenched them in water filling the room with steam. As I looked in this world of white clouds, I saw figures move unseen, unheard. I saw arrow beings shot through the clouds and one of the figures redirected it with a breath. The notes I took now form a single image and I knew that they meant Cloud.
 
When I awoke I found the 2 of the 5 pieces of malachite he changed. They both were now cut into a more regular shape with a hole through the top to allow a leather thread to go through them. But more then that on one side of each token was the runes that I had seen in my dreams a rune of Fire on one and a Rune of Clouds on the other. On the back of both was the symbol of the candle and the eye. Praise be to Deneir who has recognized the work that I have done in his name.
