Prologue

Chapter 1

Chapter 4
Daran Edermath, a fit silver-haired half-elf well over a hundred years old, is a retired adventurer
who lives in a tidy little cottage beside an apple orchard in Phandalin.
Daran tells the group that prospectors have been chased away by undead at the Old Owl Well,
an old netheril watchtower to the north east of Phandalin.
Daran invites Pearl to join the "Order of the Gauntlet" once the undead horde at the Old Owl Well is dealt with.
Chapter 9
Daran Edermath inducts Pearl into the "Order of the Gauntlet" after defeating Kost the Red Wizard necromancer
and his undead horde at the Old Owl Well.
As part of the ceremony, Daran Edermath gave Pearl his old Moon Cloak.
As thanks, Pearl donated a tithe (200 gp) to the Order to help Daran with managing operations around Phandalin.
In addition, Daran Edermath put in a good word to the Church of Selune in Neverwinter, so that Linene Graywind,
the master of the Phandalin Lionshields outpost, was able to procur the "Mace of the Moonmaiden"
to give to Pearl to repay the store credit she owed Pearl.
Chapter 12
Daran Edermath, a fellow follower of Selune, presented his old "Selune's Crescent Moon Amulet +1"
to Pearl of the Moon as a reward for defeating King Grol at Kragmaw Castle and his goblinoid minions.
As thanks, Pearl of the Moon donated a tithe (100 gp) to the "The Order of the Gauntlet" to help Daran
with managing operations around Phandalin.
Chapter 15
Pearl of the moon has decided she needs even better armor after being critically hit by several ghouls and paralyzed.
Some gleaming magical mithral full-plate would do nicely, but alas, is just beyond her budget right now.
Or maybe some magical adamantine full-plate to reduce the damage from those critical hits.
However, a more potent magical shield should do well until then.
Pearl was able to totally obliterate eight of a dozen undead skeletons by channeling the living essence of Selune.
Chapter 16
After stopppng the "Black Spider" at Wave Echo Cave and destroying the undead haunting the caves,
Daran Edermath and Pearl performed a ritual increasing Pearl's bond with Selune.
This improved "Selune's Crescent Moon Amulet" from +1 to +2.
Pearl of the Moon donated a tithe (400 gp) to the "The Order of the Gauntlet"
to further help Daran with managing operations around Phandalin.
Pearl included three silver goblets with embedded moonstones (60 gp each) as part of the tithe.
Pearl was looking to improve thr protective properties of her "Heraldic Shield" (+1 to +2)
Pearl found a gnomish arcane armorsmith, travelling with a recent Lionshields Merchant Caravan
visiting Phandalin, who was able to increase the protective magic of the "Heraldic Shield".
Maybe she will look into getting some Elven Boots afterall. Blowing two second level spell slots on silence to sneak up on some village raiders was a little pricey.
Chapter 18
In Farway, Pearl told the Church of Lathander that "Lightbringer" has been found.
Pearl asked the Church of Lathander to let her keep "Lightbringer" a little longer
due to the potential undead threat facing the royal tax caravan. They agreed.
Pearl will return "Lightbringer" to the Church of Lathander upon her return to Farway.
Chapter 23
After the defeat of the Blood Moon Cult and their hordes of undead, Pearl returned "Lightbringer" to the Church of Lathander, as promised. As thanks, the Church of Lathander gifted her with a scroll of commune.
Chapter 25
Pearl used up a kobold (2 of diamonds) from her deck of illusions
Chapter 26
Pearl tested out "Loudmouth" against some ghouls, but it had less boom than expected.
Pearl used up a kobold (2 of clubs) from her deck of illusions to distract some guards on a walkway at the border gate.
Chapter 28
As they fought the water elemental in the pond, Corwyn realized it was known as a Myrmidon, a speacial type of water elemental that has been entrapped in a suit of magical full-plate to protect a water source. Pearl of the Moon laid claim to the legendary Plate of the Myrmidon to use. Her plan was to have it further reinforced with adamantine upon their return to Farway.
As they entered the cave in the underground village of "Qwendyn", Pearl noticed that the Mace of the Moonmaiden was glowing faintly of moonlight, alerting her that werecreatures were nearby.
In their battle with the arachnids, web golems, were spiders and giant spiders, Corwyn called on all his eldritch power to blast his foes, only the power was to much to contain, and his head exploded, killing him instantly. Fortunately, Pearl of the Moon, a life domain cleric of Selune, was able to call upon her goddess to revivify Corwyn, bringing him back to the edge of life, where she was then able to channel her divinity to heal most of his severe wounds, but that raven shaped scar on his head would never heal.
Chapter 29
Pearl and Xenon cut out two survivors trapped inside the cocoons found in one cave. Pearl called upon Selune to purge them of the poison paralyzing their bodies.
They found more bodies trapped inside cocoons in another cave, but have yet to set any survivors free.
