These creatures have always been friendly\, if occasionally mischievous\, but recently fey beings and even trees have begun attacking hunters\, and several people have gone into the forest and never come back out. The authorities are worried\, and have asked the Player Characters\, a mostly-retired adventuring party\, to journey into the forest to the Fey Court to investigate. \nAmy Smith (our DM) will supply the character sheets for this session so we can just focus on play.

Enlisting the help of Aaron Levy\, an American graduate student as impatient as he is charming\, and in a race with another fast-moving team of historians\, Helen embarks on one last project: to determine the identity of the documents’ scribe\, the elusive “Aleph.”\nElectrifying and ambitious\, sweeping in scope and intimate in tone\, The Weight of Ink is a sophisticated work of historical fiction about women separated by centuries\, and the choices and sacrifices they must make in order reconcile the life of the heart and mind.\n\n\n \n \n Event Sign Up\n \n \n PhoneThis field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.Name*\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Email*\n \n Comments URL:https://www.irondalelibrary.org/event2/book-club-discussion-the-weight-of-ink-by-rachel-kadish/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20200818T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20200818T183000 DTSTAMP:20260823T092254 CREATED:20200805T224959Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200814T182335Z UID:10378-1597773600-1597775400@www.irondalelibrary.org SUMMARY:POSTPONED: Rejoicing Rhythms: Drum at Home!
