He waved his drow over, and gave her a quick hug, before nodding to Hinata. "I need your help. My major temple in Brindol was just attacked by a near unique item, a wand that functioned as a Staff of Power, absorbing ambient magic and eventually exploding. Two dozen or so dead, and at least five dozen badly wounded, though none likely to die thanks to me cheating a bit, and having Avi and the Ghaeles go help. Hinata here had an idea of trying to backtrack the creator of the wand, as it was definitely an epic creation, and since it has been a month since my challenge to the evil gods to quit being children and grow up, we have determined that it was likely a mortal that created it on a gods behalf. We were hoping your recent attempts at mapping the planes would help, though I am afraid I might have to upset the map a bit when we do find the perpetrator."
