Chapter 2: The New World

Drizzt Do'Urden look at the star filled night outside the cave he had called home for the past fifteen years after the death of the last of his friends. At the young age of 175 and standing at 5 foot 4 inches tall, Drizzt look to be no older than twenty-five, for his people were blessed with long life, and were called by others Elves. But unlike other elves, Drizzt was shunned by all cities and towns, for he is a Dark Elf, or as people call them the Drow. Drizzt, unlike others of his kin does not worship the goddess of spiders, for she is a black and evil god. Drizzt left the underdark to live on the surface world rather than live with his own people and it is here that he has lived for most of his life. Sixty of his years were spent with his friends, and with his lover Catti-brie, once she came of age.

Sighing, Drizzt look around his home. On one wall of the cave was a weapon stand with both of his scimitars, Icingdeath and Twinkle, laying on it. Next to them lay the dagger of his old enemy, Entreri. It was sent to him over ninety years ago by the rouge Drow, Jarlaxle, to tell him that Entreri had died of old age. Drizzt look at the other wall, where his armour crafted by one of the best armouries of Mithral Hall hung. At the time it was made a strong enchainment was cast on it to protect him from most attacks. Throwing his long white hair over his shoulder, Drizzt walked to the back of the cave where his bedroll was placed for another night dreaming of the good days.

Drizzt was in a field full of wildflowers as a beautiful woman with amber hair dressed in hunting leather and a flowing forest green clock came towards him. As she got closer Drizzt saw that she had a unicorn head- shaped Nickelous on and knew that this was his goddess, Mielikki. Drizzt bowed when she was no more than a yard away and said,

"My lady, what a nice surprise. To what..." Mielikki interrupted him,

"I have a job for you, ranger Do'Urden. I cannot stay long so listen to me: Seek out the Dryad that lives near your cave. She will give you something that will help you in what you have to do. Once you have this object, you will find out the details of your quest."

And with that Drizzt was plunged into darkness.

Drizzt awoke with a start, jumping up and grabbing his swords and armour as he prepared to leave. Taking his dagger he exited the cave. Drizzt started down the path to the oak tree in the valley, not far from his home.

One hour later the Dryad called Snow looked up to see the snow white hair and ebony skin of the Drow that had became her friend and, if she got her way soon, lover, coming towards her. But Mielikki had told her that she was to give Drizzt a certain rock and that was all, none of her wily charms today. Throwing her amber hair like autumn coloured leaves over her shoulder, she climbed down her tree to meet the Drow.

When Drizzt got to the base of the tree, Snow was waiting for him, holding out a rock that had green and blue streaks running through it. Smiling, Snow asked, "Tell me, why I am handing a rock to you in the middle of the night?" Drizzt smiled at the Dryad and replied,

"I have no idea, but I will take it now, if you please?" Snow smiled and handed him the rock. As it touched his hand he vanished from her sight and planet. Snow looked around for a moment, but then went back to her tree, seeing that Drizzt was no longer around to talk to, and it was cold out.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the realm, deep underground, the clerics of Eilistraee were at work tending the wounded from the latest attack from the monster that lived in the underdark. Heading the healing effort was one petite amber-eyed Drow, considered short among her people where the females were taller than the males. Liriel looked up to see another person brought in with a leg wound. Liriel sighed, thinking of her books back in the tower that she called home in this dark world. She wished to be with them now, instead of tending the wounded that seemed to flow into the room.

Hours later, Liriel entered her tower. It was full of books and scrolls to do with magic in all its forms and types kept on bookshelves that extended from one end of the room to the other. Just as she was about to go into the trance that most Elvin people called sleep, a silver light on her desk showed a rock with green and blue streaks running through it sitting on a sheet of paper on her desk. Liriel quickly cast a trap-detecting spell on the both the rock and the paper, and after seeing both were safe, she reached for the paper and read aloud,

Dear Liriel Baenre,

Liriel flinched at her last name, seeing that house Baenre was the most loyal of Lolth's followers and she was a follower of Eilistraee. Looking back at the letter she read on,

You have been chosen for a mission on another world that is having trouble with dark magic. This rock will take you there. You will meet your partner there and get what information you need. Go well my child, and may my light shine on you all the time.

Eilistraee

Liriel looked in shock at the signature at the closing of the letter. Thinking for a minute, she grabbed her backpack and the most powerful of her books from the shelves around her, and without a thought she grabbed the rock. She felt a tugging sensation around the middle of her stomach, and then blackness came over her.
