Skyships' Glade was an open glade within the Forest of Mir[1] that had long been used as a landing site for both Halruaan skyships[1][2] and spelljammers.[1]

Geography[]

This glade was situated about 50 miles (80,000 meters) due west of the garrison town of Kzelter.[1]

History[]

By the Year of the Blacksnake, 1285 DR, the glade had been virtually taken over by illithid slavers from Glyth, who had grown tired with the meddlings of Khelben Arunsun and Elminster. They used the site to export the victims they abducted from isolated and vulnerable settlements across the Lands of Intrigue. This came to an end following the illithids' loss of their outpost Stardock to the Twisted Rune[1] in 1369 DR.[3] However, others aping their tactics would continue to use throughout the 14th century DR to ferry away slaves from Calimshan.[1]

Over the next century the glade would end up being used as the site for many a magefair. By the turn of the 16th century DR, it was continuing to see use as a docking site by Halruaan skyships and the once-hidden site had become widely known for it.[2]
