From Spring 2009 Catalog:
"Mel returns to Forgotten Realms with an addition to the Wilds series in 2009"
But it state no title nor the others 2 in the series
As long as it isn't "Wilds from the Sea!" I will give it a shot! |

Just around the corner
Any thoughts on what the Fanged Crown is?
A crown with fangs, most likely.

I was just trying to recall if there was an artifcat previously referenced |

Bad hamster!
I am going to guess that it is a crown of some power that once is put on cannot be removed. Thus the fangs! |

In contested quote, "Realmspace sourcebook" could be a supplement about Realmspace but bearing a different name, or it could be named Realmspace. Scribes unfamiliar with Spelljammer material would not necessarily understand that we spoke of the latter option, and not the former. So there.
So where?
Anyways, since the scribe in question also noted that the spelljammer.org site offered info to support material referenced in the earlier noted source, it's likely that most scribes would come to realise that he was referring to an actual SPELLJAMMER supplement, or at least make the connection after viewing the site mentioned.

Actually, you'll note that the scribe in question said "Realmspace sourcebook." So, there was never any doubt that he was referring to anything other than a particular source for information.

Since when is anything about the Spellplague logical?
since like never |

I could've sworn another scribe already mentioned that particular source earlier.

some spelljammer books.
Specifically, SJR2 Realmspace. I like it as a Spelljammer supplement, but I find most of the Toril-specific info it contains to be questionable... |

Indeed, there are people living on Selune.
Among them... humans, elves, and a significant settlement of Leiran faithful. Actually, they'd likely former faithful now given her 'dead' status. There are other races also. See the Realmspace sourcebook and the details for Selune at the spelljammer.org website.
