They stopped before the massive mushroom that stood before them, many meters tall, towering over them, there appeared to be similar mushrooms around the landscape but none compared to the one they now stood before, outside two dark elves stood, one, a male, appeared to be a young mage, likely an apprentice to Neloth, the other one was a woman, she wore fine clothes befitting of a noble. Most likely however, she was some kind of Servant of Neloth as Neloth himself was a Master Telvanni wizard-lord, befitting of his station, almost anyone could be aservant to him.

The two held a brief conversations as the Woman spoke "Why are you out here? Aren't you supposed to be in the tower assisting Master Neloth?" she asked

The Apprentice mumbled "Why won't this summoning work?" he then spoke to the woman "If you must know, I'm trying to get this Ash Guardian spell to work. Now let me concentrate. Besides, shouldn't you be worrying about the damage to the tower?"

"Master Neloth has tasked Elynea with repairing the tower. Why aren't you doing this in the lab, where it would be safer for all of us?" She replied again, cautious about the Apprentice's ability

"The, uh...the lab is too small. Also, I need the ashy soil. Master Neloth knows what I'm doing. No need to bother him about it though. He's quite busy at the moment " the Aprenictce replied as he cast the spell to no avail.

"It's on your head if something goes wrong. Just let me get back inside first." The woman said as she noticed the party.

"No Ash Guardian. Maybe the book has something." the Apprenitce mumbled as he read a tome he had with him.

"We don't get many visitors. Is there something you need?" She asked

Alyssa stepped forward "What is this place?" she asked although she knew the answer due to Liannistra's explanation.

"Tel Mithryn. It's the home of Master Neloth. You may have heard of him. He's a famous Telvanni wizard." She answered

"Are you one of his apprentices?" Liannistra asked her, the Dunmer woman turned to her "No. Talvas here is his apprentice. I'm Varona, his steward. I manage the day to day¹ affairs of Tel Mithryn." The Woman replied, revealing her name and status as well as the name of the Apprentice of Neloth.

"Who else lives here?" Alyssa asked

"Well, as I mentioned, Talvas is Master Neloth's apprentice. If you are interested in spells, he might be willing to sell you some." Liannistra glanced at him, he appeared occupied with his spell, Varona continued "Elynea is our alchemist. She specializes in mushrooms and other types of fungus. Ulves runs the kitchens."

Liannistra looks towards the Mushroom Tower "May we meet with Master Neloth?"

"Alright, but take care, he might be a bit hard to get along with." Varona said as Alyssa and Liannistra walked forwards heading into the massive mushroom.

Nargast and Gaerdal headed back out into the ashlands with the two black books they had acquired, they were heading along the road.
