3rd-Party DM-Nastics: Delightful/Devious Destinations

This tree lies deep in Wolfwalkers Coppice, on it sits a hat which appears to have been discarded nearby and snagged on the tree.
Examined magically you can tell why it might have been tossed aside so, for it is a hat of dispelling.


If were to place the hat upon thy head

And whistle a forlorn thread

The bark before thee would part and show

An entrance only you would know,

But to others you may still show.

Behind the barken door

Lays a dark and oaken floor,

Climbing upward in winding stair,

A dark elf maiden lingers there.

In her eyes no evil lies,

For alone and lonely has she only cried.

The tail of dark maiden’s known

Only to her Drider shown.

A loyal beyond loyal friend

Who will be by her side till stories end.

Her mother, powerful drow priestess, was shown

The maiden’s fate would echo her own.

For in her mother’s thrown

The maiden would come into her own.

So locked away and hidden she,

Who’s fate to replace her mother, in a tree.
