“ A fey spirit masks itself as a bee which investigates all who travel within a specific section of the forest.

“ In the days of old, before the dominance of humanity, the giants were the supreme rulers of the world and their crafts were considered to be the best.

A hero seeking a masterwork sword might have to voyage long and hard to find a surviving giant smith or cache of rare and valuable giantcraft weapons.”
