13 - EAR OF THE CITY
A strange Column in the middle of this square will talk to you as soon as you get near. It is called the Ear of the City and can reveal the locations for several magical items around Myth Drannor. It only gives info for three items at a time though so be sure to check back here often. It can also tell you the Song of Faerum.
14 - ANNORRWEYN EVERSONG'S TEMPLE
The first time you get here you will find 2 dark Nagas lurking around this place, Skerndli and Gorgat. They will say something about their boss, another dark naga named Kog. They will also tell you about Annorrweyn the priestess of Mystra and that she no longer exists. If you shout the name of Mystra, Annorrweyn will answer and the dark Nagas will attack as well as their boss that will appear that moment. Defeat them and smash the Naga Idol to destroy "Seething" the Spawn Pool. A chest there contains another Idolon, a sling +3 and a Leather Armour +3.
If you visit Beriand and Faeril after you free the temple they will tell you about the Token of Mystra and that you have to return it to the ancient temple. Faeril will also offer to join you. Return here with the Token of Mystra and Annorrweyn will talk to you. She will let you know that you have to find Miroden Silverblade in order to restore the Mythal and teach you the word of Necessity you need to reach him. The power Word opens the door sealed with the Glyph of Safekeeping down to the Lower Keep of the Catacombs. She will also ask you to return her skull back to her tomb so that she can stay to this world and help you with your quest. The skull is obtained at the First Cellar of Catacombs after the fight with the Drow and Greyanna, so remember to return here when you have it.
Finally after freeing the Bealnorn Miroden Silverblade return here once again and ask Eversong if she wants to become the Communicant of the Mythal. She will accept and tell you that you have to go to Ironbar at the House of Gems and obtained a Gem of the Weave. She will also mark your body so that you can open Antarn's Gate at the Speculum Grounds.
