The bellow of White Hart shook the trees of Serenwilde forest, drawing
the forest-dwellers to his Grove. Mirami Wolfsong was the first to
communicate with the great spirit. He shared that he was worried that
the fluctuations of power through the nexuses might harm the Morther
Moonhart Tree. Through the power of the silver bell of the forest, he
claimed he might be able to protect the Moonhart from harm.

The bell, a peculiarly imbued flower, was quickly found and brought to
White Stag. With the blossom twined amid his mighty antlers, he walked
to the Moonhart trailed by many members of the Serenwilde, and walked
thrice around its base. A silver mist briefly surrounded the tree before
sinking into the trunk.

In exchange for their help in this matter, the White Hart revealed a
broken piece of a memory crystal given to him ages before by Charune.
Though unable to answer many questions about its purpose, Hart revealed
that it contained a memory of a living Trialante. The Voice herself
seemed pleased to see the crystal, but could say nothing other than that
one of the remaining pieces was given to a mysterious person named
Rhesileni.

As autumn waned through the Serenwilde forest, an insistant song filled
the air, projected through the trees from the tiny form of a very
familiar bird - the song sparrow. As Miakoda herself remarked upon the
strange urgency in its usually demure music, and Selskia Mes'ard went to
fetch the tiny creature. After some deliberation, she led a group to the
cairn of Chuchip, where the song of the sparrow brought forth the
noteable spirit.

Indeed, Chuchip welcomed the gathered forest-dwellers and bluntly
admitted that he knew of a Rhesileni. He sent the group into the Hifarae
Highlads to find the spirit of an old friend who might share more. Once
arrived, the group was helped by Ahote Lonehoof in finding a path
through the trees and to a new part of the Highlands, a glade where a
strange pan flute protected the way to a lone cairn and the spirit of
Gantoba, an ancestor of Nintoba himself.

Lehki Mes'ard led the way, helped by many other Serens, to aiding the
centaur spirit in retrieving torn pages of research regarding the glade,
where once the Voice of Trialante dwelled, and also on the subject of a
race called the sileni. When finally Haghan summoned a spirit choir from
the burial mounds of Hifarae, Lira the Songstress and Taimon of the
Harmony rose from the single cairn, shaped unlike any race that lives in
modern times. As they appeared the ground split, revealing a chest
containing another piece of the broken memory crystal and a lost Verse
of Magnora.

Those gathered questioned the sileni and learned that they were the
shards of a Fourth Circle Goddess, Rhesileni, who splintered with Her
voice intact, granting the resulting race an affinity and power of music
unknown to others. Pursued specifically for this reason by Zenos, the
sileni were slowly devoured. Even Lira and Taimon were killed by the
unrelentless Soulless God, but Kiakoda managed to save their bodies and
spirits, entombing them in the Glade where the Voice of Trialante
dwelled.

Though the Glade revealed still more about the Vernal Wars and the
history of the Voice of Trialante, the forest-dwellers, particularly the
bards, hoped that a method for mending the broken memory crystals would
soon emerge, that they may learn more about the Goddess Trialante.
