Editing Windvane (section)

==History==
It is unknown who forged ''Windvane'', or when. What is known is that when the [[eladrin]] [[Aerisi Kalinoth]] received visions that led her to descend into the caverns below the ruins of the dwarven city of [[Belsimar]], she was holding ''Windvane'' when she emerged. Aerisi wielded the spear until her death at the hands of [[Drake's Company]], when it was taken up by the halfling bard [[Qwynn]]. Qwynn used the spear to assert her dominance over the remnants of Kalinoth's [[Cult of the Howling Hatred]], and even carried it into battle against [[Vanifer]], the prophet of the [[Cult of the Eternal Flame]]. As Vanifer died, though, Qwynn was suddenly drawn down into the caverns as if in a trance, until she arrived at a portal to the [[elemental plane of air]]. She attempted to use the spear to summon Yan-C-Bin, but her comrades stopped her and forcibly took ''Windvane'' from her, breaking the spell. Examining the weapon more closely, they realized its true nature and resolved to destroy it.

The heroes put ''Windvane'' in a vault in [[Drakkengarde]], where it was subsequently presumed lost following the city's destruction in the [[Shattering of Orodeth]]. It was recovered several years later by King [[Lanak Iskarr]] of [[Varen]], who was secretly a devotee of Yan-C-Bin and attempted to use it to summon his master into Syra. When his ritual was interrupted by the arrival of Drake's Company, he instead channeled the power into himself and became an aspect of Yan-C-Bin. After a fierce battle he was slain by [[Honeysuckle Bree]], and the heroes reclaimed ''Windvane'' and brought it back into the caverns below Belsimar. [[Sumac Briarden]] thrust ''Windvane'' into the portal, closing it and destroying the spear.
