Chaper One: The Festival of Blossoms
Shandra steps forward, picking up the fir composite bow, and walks over to Casyr. Presenting it to him, she smiles slightly. "This bow has been in my care for many decades now, a gift from my mentor. It's name is Dawnbeam, and has been used by rangers and divine archers for centuries to combat the forces of evil. I have settled down, never having unlocked its full abilities, but I feel like you may be the one to do so. Wield it well, and defend your friends, it will serve you true." She spoke, looking fondly at the bow before passing it to Casyr.
Anaduil is the next to step forward, picking up the silver elven horn with care and tenderness. His gaze lingers on it before walking over to Ruven, holding it before him. "This horn was your mothers, a tool she used often in her travels. She was a mighty warrior, and skilled with her musical abilities. She left this for you before she passed away, and I have held on to it for these many years, knowing that I would give it to you when you might need it. I am not sure of it's capabilities, but it is a powerful device. My son, I am proud of the young person you have become, and I know that you will do great things in this world, and beyond." The high priest spoke, a tear falling down his cheek.
Kaelthas considers Aergleel for a few moments, before nodding his head. He too steps forward, picking up the large steel shield that vaguely looks like a curled dragon. For a moment, he seems to be listening to something, before he presents it to Aergleel. "When I was young, I found this shield after my companions and I slew a white dragon far to the north of these lands. She is a good shield, and will serve you well. I do not know all of her abilities, but her protections are strong, and she desires to be passed on to do good in the world once more. Her name is Anexortian, and she will defend you from extremes in temperature, the harshest winters and most punishing of summers will seem to you a mild day in spring while you wear her. I have studied you from afar, and know that you are destined to be a great warrior, and every good warrior needs a shield. Good luck lad!" He spoke, passing the shield over to Aergleel.
Taelia walks forward next, picking up the wooden holy symbol, considering it with reflection in her face. She turns to her daughter, looking into her eyes. "When I was a younger, this holy symbol was presented to me by my superior, a wise priestess of Ehlenestra. Although not a normal symbol for the faith, it is still sacred to the goddess of the woodlands. There is, however, a sacrifice to be made. This item is also sacred to Nature itself, and requires its wearer to foreswear most trappings of civilization, especially wealth. But I think you will find that it more than makes up for any magical trinket you might acquire with its gifts. Although I stopped wearing it many years ago, I have long watched as you grew into your own, and know that you will appreciate its many abilities. Use it well, daughter, and be a force for preserving Nature." She spoke, holding it to place it around Amardes' neck.
Xialo next steps forward, picking up the black leather gauntlets. He walks over to Kor, presenting them to his apprentice. "Although we do not always see eye to eye in the matters of the natural world, these gauntlets served me well in my youth, enhancing my magical abilities beyond what I was normally capable of. In many battles against unnatural forces, I was able to overcome them with my strength augmented by them. I think that you will find them to be useful as you go into the world, and hopefully they provide you with the key to finding your own path. Wind to thy wings, pupil." He spoke, handing them over to Kor.
Bareil is the last to step forward, picking up the ebon staff. Holding it in his hands, he concentrated for a moment, causing it to transform into black longsword, before switching it back to a staff. Walking over to Shanaera, he holds it out for her to grasp. "This was your mothers staff, one she loved dearly, before she took to traveling the world. Although I have not heard from her in many years, she always had a talent with shadow magic, which she infused into this staff. It's name is Dusk, and as you can see with concentration its form is mutable to its users will. I do not know all of it's potential, but it has a great destiny for those who practice shadow magic. I think she would want you to have it, especially going out into the world, instead of gathering dust in my library. Be careful, although the staff itself is benign, shadow magic itself can take a toll on ones being. Most of all, my daughter, be safe and live well." He spoke, passing it to Shanaera.
The Elders step back, indicating to the bundles of weapons and armor. "Within, you will find masterwork weapons and armor that you may choose from, with our blessings. Use them well, and discover what has become of our allies. May Corellon Larethian smile upon you as you travel." They spoke, letting you pick over what you like.
OOC:Pretty much any masterwork weapon or armor is within the bundles, Exotic Weapons and Armor's or items made from special materials will not be. Just update your character sheets with your Legacy Item and what items you pull from the bundles. Sorry about the delay.
