Greetings all, I was just reading the Questions to the almighty Ed and he mentions the story of the "Ghost Dragon" Araunthroun
Link here:http://forum.candlekeep.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=15988&whichpage=38
This almost 3000 years old dragon, according to Ed, lived in the Fallen Lands and got help from some wizards to achieve immortality by draining magic from magic items ( So I'd say Shadow Weave wizards since it's a very much improved version of what a shadowslain undead creature can do). And then I noticed how also in the Fallen Lands lies Stormkeep , an huge tower accessible only through Portal or by flying... Could it be the place where those wizards back then conceived such a ritual on the dragon...and...also the place where Araunthroun studies a way to gain back a tangible powerful body.
According to the forgotten wiki Stormkeep is often visited by dragons for healing ( that could have been always the same...as from what Ed says Araunthroun changes size when regaining form and its translucency might , from a distance fool on the scale colour during different moments of the day...or actually Araunthroun changing his shape in order to hide such a location as one of his lairs ( He was called Shapechanger after all). Also inside the Keep several vats holding limbs( human or not) in translucent oils with incredible healing powers...so it's clearly a lab of some sort...I'd love to direct my question to Ed but before doing so I wanted to hear the opinion from others much more creative, knowleadgeable intuitive sages to know if I might be onto something.

Seeker Qilintha,
I hope this doesn't sound obtuse of me, but...
Would you mind rephrasing the questions?
Best regards,
