What exactly was the Mhaorkiira Hadryad from the novel Dreamspheres? A evil lore gem?
What exactly meant Hadryad?
Thanks |

Indeed -- Sage and I switched back, so now she's stuck with him again. Poor Lady K. |

They were twisted by the dark kiira, which eventually lead to their demise. This is on pages 175 and 208 of that book.
Well, it's been quite a while since I read the book, so I'm not surprised my info was a little off. I wouldn't say it was wrong, entirely. Just not really relevant in this context.
That sounds very "Woolyish" Sage......
And Wooly's answer sounded very "Sagelike"
I just got the chills....knock it off you two! |

That would be my reading as well. |

-I don't particularly recall the involvement of a Dryad in Dreamspheres, though it has been a while since I read it. |

Well in Waterdeep: City of splendors they tell us about the events of the Dreamspheres telling us that the Mhaorkiira Hadryad created the dream spheres...
So I guess a crazy dryad holding the corrupted loregem created the spheres?

-As was said, Hadryad is another term for Hamadryad. This is not part of the word or phrase, though, if that is what is confusing you. |

-In Elven 'Mhaor' means 'Corruption'. Hence, the Mhaor'Kiir is the Corrupt Lore Gemstone. |

Yes that was what I supposed...Why is the kiira in Dreamspheres named like that? I that owned by an hamadryad in the novel or something? |

The Mhaorkiira ['Corrupt Gem'] is only a corrupt, evil kiira stone.
Hadryad is simply another name for a hamadryad as I recall. |
