      "Many centuries ago, a beautiful young woman with a five-stringed harp of green vines stepped into the roar of a powerful river. She spoke in such elegant tones of the destructive and creative power of nature that the waters calmed around her. As she plucked her strings and continued her recital, she stirred magic into the very rocks of the canyon. This is how Evereska was formed—at least according to one telling.",
      "The woman, an elven goddess known as the Poetess, was either a female aspect or an avatar of {@deity Milil|Faerûnian|SCAG}, the Faerûn god of creativity. In honor of the Poetess's legacy, bards meet every year at the Halfway Inn for a tournament of battle poetry, an extraordinary event that combines magic, dance, martial arts, and spitting bars.",
      "The official drink of the festival, the Poetess, is as beautiful, elegant, and quietly formidable as the goddess herself."

Strain the mixture into a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth over a cup with a spout to remove the solids and set aside. In a separate cup, stir together the hot water and butterfly pea powder until no clumps remain. Add to the lavender syrup and mix well. Allow to fully cool before using. Store any remaining lavender syrup in an airtight jar in the refrigerator for up to 1 week."

Add a large ice cube to two rocks glasses. Strain and divide the mixture evenly between the two glasses. Top with lemon juice, lavender sprigs, and lemon peel. Watch the color change with the addition of acid, and serve at once."
