CURSED CANDYLAND PROMPTS

woods by a witch. They were never heard from again, but the mother
still holds out hope for their return

A QUEST OF DIVINE IMPORTANCE

šAn Ayocote of the goddess Selûne gathers the party in Stonehenge. Each party member feels
compelled to come to this location, at this time. Maybe they received a map, guiding them to
this location, perhaps they chased a star until they ended up here or they heard of the great
treasure that is hidden at the site.
šThe woman, dressed in blue, with hair like starlight, explains that her order cannot walk the
world of man. The stars in the sky are falling due to a particularly troublesome mortal making a
deal with one of the lesser gods. This mortal has taken the Orbital Connections from the sky in
order to use their power for himself.
šYour objective is to use the Stellar Staffs to transport the Celestial Containment Orbs
(CCO) to the locations of the three remaining Orbital Connections, and capture them. Once
you do so, “she” will visit you again under the open moonlight.

light the way and guide you to your destination if you can keep focus on it
and don’t loose sight of your path. Many people do not keep their focus and

VILLAIN SPEECH

¡ “Thank you, brave adventurers, for bringing me the final components to my spell. I really didn’t expect to get this
many. This is very exciting for all of us. Do you realize you are now a key ingredient in creating the New Sky?”
¡ The Ceiling above pulses with black and golden power.
¡ “With the Orbital Connections in my power, I will simply, block out the celestial gods from this realm. Then,
repaint the sky in my image. All of Faerun will know the name Edward the Solar Gatekeeper.”

SELÛNE’S BLESSING

¡ Selûne greets the players in her spectral form. The three Orbital
Connections dance around her and shoot up into the night sky,
exploding with a fire-work like show. Soft lights drift through the sky
like the northern lights.
¡ The goddess grants each of them with magical weapons of their
choosing that allow them to cast moonbeam once per day. She also
gives each of you bags of 50 platinum each. They all celebrate with a
hero’s feast, under the fantastical cosmic show that is now the sky.
