We passed the tests, fighting projection after projection. Oleanth, the headmaster of Windsong Tower, was testing us to see if we were powerful and cunning enough to aid him in his goals. He wishes to reconnect Windsong Tower to the Accordlands so that it is not isolated by the twisted Isle of Shadows. I'm so glad that the book wasn't angry with us after all -- gaining the enmity of inanimate objects would be a new low for us.
Flush with success, reward, and hope of return to our home, you'd think we could relax now. Ha! The extremity of Oleanth's request is such that I'd laugh it off, were we not already beyond the boundaries of our ordinary reality. He needs us to travel to the Broken Moon to assault and temporarily disrupt the Aspect of Bascaron. Only with the Aspect disrupted can Oleanth break free from Bascaron's pull and reconnect the tower.
It's a good thing we have time to prepare and plan; I know very little about the environment of the Broken Moon, or the powers of his Aspect, but I doubt they'll be hospitable.
