Hello all,

I had the opportunity to run this adventure in my weekly, and these are the collected thoughts of myself and my players.

1. I enjoyed the background. I have always been amazed at how the Moonshaes are a small region of Faerun, and yet the Baldman Games bunch continue to create engaging stories. The primer is very appropriate--it grabs anyone that reads it.
2. Our players spent alot of time in the Call to Action. This group has played in the Moonshaes for awhile--they have met some of the NPC before. If you have players that have some time in the Moonshaes area, DMs may want to consider planning for RP with Pilark, Rhyss, Hyll and Snicket.
3. I enjoyed the Traveling Through Despair Narrative. Presenting ways that a travel pace can effect encoutnter without getting into numbers crunhcing is always a plus (at least for me). I appreciate that the designer thought to do this.
4. The Utilizing Antola Sidebar- VERY HELPFUL! Saved me page-flipping and permitted me to jot down meta notes next to the sidebar. Thank you!
5. I did use the ShadowFell Despair. I was not sure that in addition to the reconciliation for it, these effects leave at end after the adventure. I think that answer is just in general AL rules, but I brought it up because I was thinking about it.
6. There was more than enough material here to either meet timing. I had to cut out two scenes to meet my timing, but the scenes are written pretty compartemented. You could easily shift important elements between each one.
7. The Fountain of Fairie scene was more than appropriate: gripping. exciting, Yeth Hounds! Allips! Star Spawn Seer
8. Having Antola Pilark can let you help the party .. I did have her use faeirie fire and mass cure wounds.. but left the stage to the players. the battle took about 6 rounds with a rouge, cleric, barbarian, wizard and fighter.
9. Recurrent NPCs, a threat that is familiar to them but growing and a worthy final encounter are this adventures player highlights. I bet that if you add this to your collection, you will find many more things to like. Well done.
