A Collaboration I[]
At sunrise, we were treated to a delightful surprise: our brothers and sisters from the Blessed Isles have arrived. It has been many seasons since we’ve seen them and there is a tentative excitement in the air.
A feast was immediately called to celebrate their arrival. The Blessed Isles are rich in magics – clearly, a blessing of the mother serpent – and knowing our allies braved such a massive divide to grace us with their presence and ingenuity is indeed a blessing.
I look forward to catching up with their elders and continuing to learn their ways, as well as impart the wisdom of the mother serpent unto them.

A Collaboration II[]
I am honored to be part of this mission. Having never left the Blessed Isles before, I am intrigued to meet our longtime allies across the sea.
The people of the Serpent Isles are wise in many ways. They have sustained themselves off the lifeblood of the sea, harnessing its bounty and its magic. They speak of their goddess, Nagakabouros, and I’m intrigued to discover more of their traditions and magic.
I have formed a quick kinship with these people, no doubt due to our shared thirst for knowledge and a love for sweet fruit! We have spent the last few weeks learning from each other, and I have to say my first excursion has been memorable.
We’ve begun discussions to work together on forging a great work. A temple, that might utilize the magic of the Serpent isles with the ingenuity of the Blessed Isles.

A Collaboration IV[]
The temple has been completed. It is a work of beauty, a true fusion of Blessed Isles ingenuity and Serpent Isles wisdom.
Our mission, to explore the Serpent Isles and harness its magic, has been a resounding success. The Goddess the people refer to as Nagakabouros has a potent magic, and within this temple we have harnessed it. Much like the Blessed Waters, the Goddess seems to possess a force of preservation, though her people demand that only the worthy may partake in her blessing.
We prepare to bid farewell to the people of the Serpent Isles, but we hope that this monument to our shared ingenuity and blessing maintains for years to come. May all who are lost and seek the guidance of the Mother Serpent find their way here.

A Collaboration: Epilogue[]
We speak in hushed whispers of the Mother Serpent’s hearth. A place that has been forgotten, lost to us in the ocean of time.
The forces of the sea are fierce. Perhaps there was hubris in hoping to make a home at the bottom of the sea, as creatures of the deep are drawn to the fury of the Mother Serpent’s embrace…
Now, powerful creatures protect where men once walked. Perhaps we will one day rediscover the temple our ancestors left behind. Who knows what power may remain there, deep below the waves.
