2. Drifting near a sunless archipelago, you encounter celestial beings and their tutelary mortals, challenged by an ethical dilemma involving 3d6 air mephits.

4. In a clearing, the party finds a group of genasi performing a ritual to commune with their ancestors and ask for their guidance. However, something has gone wrong, and the ancestors are appearing as hostile spirits, attacking anyone who comes close. The players must find a way to appease the ancestors and restore balance.
   
   
5. A lone cloud giant is flying through the sky, looking for food. If attacked, he will summon 1d6+2 allies.
   
   
6. A squadron of 12 air mephits ambushes the party, using the swirling clouds as cover. As they fight, the group discovers an ancient skyship buried in a cloudbank, a relic of an earlier age of planar travel. Investigating the ship unveils a map to forgotten sky ruins, but the mephits' high-pitched shrieks call for reinforcements.
   
   
7. A fragile scroll flutters into view, inscribed with ancient, mutable glyphs. Deciphering it demands intellect and caution, lest you awaken guardian spirits.

Guarded by an enigmatic scholar who reveals herself as a time-lost avatar of knowledge, they’re challenged to a series of riddles and mental trials centered on ancient mythologies and arcane lore. Correct responses not only grant them knowledge but also tangible rewards like spell scrolls or enchanted trinkets. However, missteps result in being turned into partial wind themselves, detaching their essence ever so slightly from their corporeal forms, making reality a misty, ethereal experience that could become irreversible if they linger too long.
