Phases of the Moon: Part 1 of 4. "First Quarter: Selune Rising!" Written by Dan Mishkin. Art by Jan Duursema and Rick Magyar. It is "The Time of Troubles." Gods now walk among the mortals of the Forgotten Realms. Magic is out of control, and strange creatures roam the land. This is the tale that rocked the Realms to its very foundation (see also Forgotten Realms (1989) #15-18). Selune, the Goddess of the Moon has arrived in Waterdeep, but how is that possible. Isn't Luna the earthly avatar of the moon goddess? Includes character sheet and information (to be used for the TSR Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game) for the Scenario: The Avatar Crisis (or And the Gods came Tumbling Down). NOTE: The whole story of "The Time of Troubles" is chronicled in the Avatar Trilogy: Shadowdale, Tantras, and Waterdeep, novels written by Richard Awlinson and published by TSR. The affects of this story are still felt in the Forgotten Realms to this day and are explored in the computer games Baldur's Gate and Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn. - Odinson, Lone Star Comics Archivist
