A Harper's Song was book penned by Alustriel Silverhand, the High Lady of Silverymoon, in the late 13th century DR.[2]
“
High magic is strange and savage and splendid for its own sake, whether one's spells change the Realms about or no. A craefter who by dint of luck, work, skill, and the mercy of the Great Lady Mystra comes to some strength in art is like a thirsty drunk in a wine cellar–he or she can never leave it alone. And who can blame such a one? It is not given to all to feel the kiss of such power.
”
— Excerpt from A Harper's Song[2]
