The druids have long known that the boundaries between the world and the Feywild are thin within the Towering Wood. For centuries, legends spoke of the feyspire of Shae Loralyndar materializing for short periods within the forest. Now, the great citadel’s appearance after the Day of Mourning heralds a new chapter in the history of the feyspire and the Reaches.
Shae Loralyndar stands at the center of a forested valley in the Twilight Demesne, where waterfalls from the Shadowcrags spill into the forest. The Spire of Rose and Thorn defines the artistry and grace of the eladrin. Its peak-roofed houses are connected by slender bridges, beautiful rose gardens spreading between them as the towers of the eladrin lords rise high above.
The eladrin enjoyed peaceful relations with the druids of the Towering Wood. However, their inability to return to their native plane in the aftermath of the Mourning has led to suspicion and unrest, and the eladrin struggle now to find their place here. A rivalry has always existed between Shae Loralyndar and Pylas Pyrial. The folk of that Zilargo feyspire have adapted easily to their new lives in Eberron, an attitude that seems treasonous to the folk of Shae Loralyndar.
Lord Eversun rules Shae Loralyndar as he has for centuries. He regards the druids as useful (if inferior) allies, but he refuses to subject himself or his people to their laws. This perceived arrogance is a source of growing conflict within factions of the Wardens.
