Lord Albrek,
My spies in Neverwinter tell me that strangers are due to arrive in Phandalin.
They could be working for the dwarves.
Capture them if you can, kill them if you must, but don’t allow them to upset our plans.
See that any dwarven maps in their possession are delivered to me with haste.
I’m counting on you, Iarno. Don’t disappoint me.
WAVE ECHO CAVE
--------------
From a tome containing the adventure journal of Urmon the Dwarf,
detailing the Lost Mines of Phandelver and the Spell Forge.
Found in the study/lab of Iarno "Glasstaff" Albrek, a human wizard
"More than five hundred years ago, clans of dwarves and gnomes made an agreement known as the
Phandelver's Pact, by which they would share a rich mine in a wondrous cavern known as Wave Echo Cave.
In addition to its mineral wealth, the mine contained great magical power.
Human spellcasters allied themselves with the dwarves and gnomes to channel
and bind that energy into a great forge (called the Forge of Spells),
where magic items could be crafted. Times were good, and the nearby human town
of Phandalin (pronounced fan-duh-lin) prospered as well.
But then disaster struck when orcs swept through the North and laid waste to all in their path.
A powerful force of orcs reinforced by evil mercenary wizards attacked Wave Echo Cave
to seize its riches and magic treasures. Human wizards fought alongside their dwarf and gnome allies
to defend the Forge of Spells, and the ensuing spell battle destroyed much of the cavern.
Few survived the cave-ins and tremors, and the location of Wave Echo Cave was lost.
Urmon records that a magic mace named Lightbringer was commissioned by priests of Lathander,
the god of dawn, from the mages working with the gnomes and dwarves of the Phandelver's Pact.
The mace was lost when Wave Echo Cave and its mine vanished from history."
