Successful, elven rule restored and still no talk on how weak the city would be after reclamation.

We have fostered trust, recruited loyalty, and gathered the faithful. We have trained thousands. Our legions can cover the land, fill the sky and travel through the darkness. We can hunt any and all that would deny our heritage. Now is our time, now is the time of the Dark Reign(Rain) of the Empire of Shadows.

Besides that the Vhaeraunites were reported to be the closest to reclaiming the city. It is a clear stated goal that the fair elves so far appear unable to or unwilling to prevent.

Well, well! Nice guess there! Myth Drannor reclaimed! By the Drow! The thoght does make ssome sence, has the goal of the surface drows to reclaim the old city of song been spelled out more than once in FR books so far. (FRCS, FR Lords of Darkness).

As far as I will go in my campaign: I will re-play the adventure "City of the Spider Queen". There we will have, if the plan should work out, lots of "risen elfkin".

Actually, I think you should read the Last Mythal trilogy since it wasn't reclaimed by drow. :) Or the spoiler paragraph in Power of Faerun.

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

I should have stumbled arcoss this warning before flipping through PoF yestereve. I know all about it now!!!

If that does not make it more than obvious what the name of that year is hinting at...

Given that it's the Year of Risen Elfkin and not the Year of Risen Elves, maybe some major half-elf related event is set to occur?

Remember too that the name of a year may not necessarily refer to a huge, Realms-wide event.

"Instead of asking why we sleep, it might make sense to ask why we wake. Perchance we live to dream. From that perspective, the sea of troubles we navigate in the workaday world might be the price we pay for admission to another night in the world of dreams."

Ed's shared some details about his upcoming SWORDS OF EVENINGSTAR novel is his thread here at the 'keep. You should probably check it out BlackAce.
