 * On Midsummer, a minor wizard named Naerlus "Flamespell" Arnarthandyer becomes the first wielder of the Scepter of Mystra after it was given to him by Meldryn Jalensifer, the Magister at the time, under the direct instruction of Mystra herself.
 * Naerlus uses the Scepter to establish himself as a petty tyrant along the coast north of Leilon. Meldryn attempts to retrieve the relic but Naerlus accidentally loses it before Meldryn can take it back. Adventurers find the Scepter in Calimshan a few months later and sell it. Winding up in the hands of five wizards, they battle for the relics ownership but lose it the same way Naerlus did.


 * A wizard named Taluth casts a meteor swarm spell in Telflamm, tearing apart the surrounding buildings, after he spots a doppelganger in an alleyway.
