I am doing a complete writeup about the Sunglade for my campaign. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Unapproachable East is the most recent pronouncement on the subject that I am aware of. I think the Sunglade, along with other menhir circles are now said to be able to access the new Star Elf realm.

Other sources would be the old Thay, Aglorand, Rasheman boxed set. Lastly, I believe the Sunglade was featured in the novel The Simbul's Gift.

In the novel, it talks about how the Sunglade consists of two sets of menhirs. The outer ones are elven deities. The internal menhir are various forgotten gods. Only a few of the internal menhir can still be identified. One of them is a god with the name Simbul (part of the novel mentioned above). Another is Shandilar the Dancer (not sure on the name exactly). I believe that she ultimately merged with one of the Mulhuround deities - the merger is discussed in one of the Powers and Pantheons books but I don't recall which one.

Hope that helps.

According to Demihuman Deities, There are 10 stones in the innder circle, but only four are still legible:

Relkath of the Infinite Branches
Magnar the Bear
Elikarashae
Zandilar the Dancer.

A fifth sybol looks like it might have been the sign of the Simbul.

According to the above book, all the deities above were absorbed into memebers of the Seldarine except for Zandilar the Dancer (who merged with Bast to become Sharess).

Acolyte Mendicant,

In case you are still around the 'Keep, and still writing the complete write-up, there is mention of the Sunglade in the novel, The Twilight Tomb.

Best regards,
