Whatever they were doing, their plans have been seriously altered
recently, when Harlequin and Aina allowed several powerful Horrors to
cross over at the Lake whil employing blood magic to destroy the Horror
Ysgarthe. These events were detailed in the novel Worlds Without End.

The sight is very mana rich, much like a ley line or the spot where the
Great Ghost Dance occurred. The Tir was probably attempting to harness
this energy for their own purposes (possibly to locate Thera again?).

The story appeared in the module Elven Fire.
