The Quest for Elvenwood: or Penoit's Great Adventure

"A quest for Elvenwood, are you out of your mind?There is no such thing as Elvenwood And there isno such thing as magic And I'm not going."So fumed, Penoit Seysounn .Penoit at age forty-seven is fat, lazy, cynical and temperamental, but he is also the greatest guitar maker in Gaulance. Which is why the troubadour, Vair Rohnonay seeks out Penoit demanding a guitar beyond perfection, a guitar of magic, a guitar of Elvenwood.Penoit's good, simple, peaceful life of sitting in his front yard, sipping wine and listening to birds is turned into a long and an arduous quest that he wants no part of.Along this Quest for Elvenwood, Penoit endures the company of a temperamental, foul mouth, cynical, womanizing, young noble named Lafayette, and along the way meets Ironfang a towering Timberman, Groonard a half elf hunter, Vahdoorah a Vanadon who develops a romantic interest in Penoit, and Fersey Jay Sunlay a good nature dragon that likes to gossip.Like Penoit, each of them has to contend with their own goals and weaknesses and each other.
