I am working on a complete writeup for the Sunglade. Does anyone have any material or ideas?

Where is the Sunglade located in the Realms? For some reason it rings a bell with Aglarond, but I'm not certain.

Hey SiriusBlack,

You are correct buddy. It is located within the Yuirwood, which in turn lies within Aglarond.

Mendicant, might I suggest that you continue this discussion in your Sunglade scroll in the Sages of Realmslore section.

You're likely to gain more attention in that part of the library.

Here is what I found on the Sunglade in the Unapproachable East sourcebook:

The Sunglade is a clearing in the center of the Yuirwood. It resembles any meadow, except for the two concentric circles of mehirs standing here. Long ago ensorceled, the area is impervious to the ravages of time: Its grasses are well tended and the rocks are free from vines or moss, despite being undisturbed for untold centuries.

The outer circle of menhirs is the tallest of the two, the rocks standing nearly 20 feet high. They are carved with ancient Espruar runes dedicating each stone to one member of the Seldarine, the elven pantheon. The stones of the inner circle are a mere 6 feet tall. These are carved in the same style as the others but are dedicated to the forgotten pantheon of the folk who lived in the Yuirwood even before the star elves.

Most menhir circle portals in the Yuirwood only transport someone to the nearest such portal, but the Sunglade's portal is special. Those who use it can transport directly to any of the Yuirwood's portals.

Good to hear from all of you. I have also posted in the sages forum, but I also posted here in case anyone had "homebrew" material or ideas.

Great to hear from you Mr. Boyd. Will check out the book.

To answer a question you asked me over IM's. Check out Warriors and Priests of the Realms. It has 2 pages on Groves. :)

For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird
