I'm looking for any info I might have missed on them. They're probably my favourite canon couple in the Realms.
I have Cormyr: The Novel, Cormanthyr: Empire of Elves and The Fall of Myth Drannor. I managed to read the Dragon article featuring their descendants.
Anything else? Any ideas on them?
And maybe someone knows why Alea is portrayed in Cormyr as a warrior, while in all other sources she is clearly a mage (and a high mage of great power)?

Alea appears very briefly in the epilogue of Elminster in Myth Drannor. As to why she's shown differently in Cormyr: A Novel than in later sources, you might ask Ed on his thread at Candlekeep.com (or alternatively get in touch with Jeff Grubb), along with anything else you're curious about.

There are some small references to Baerauble, including Volo's Guide to Cormyr (still gettable here) p. 11, A Grand History of the Realms p. 70, and a few in Swords of Dragonfire and The Sword Never Sleeps.

Unfortunately I'm not at Candlekeep. Thanks for this info.
I'm still looking for info and/or ideas!

Is Jeff Grubb available here?

And secondly, I'm looking also for info about "the lost prince of Evermeet" (Elaith and Amnestria's son) and "the sons of the Vyshaan".

Joining Candlekeep is just a few clicks away. Steven Schend's there too! Jeff doesn't regularly post on Realms or TSR boards, but his email address can be found at his blog.

Their son might have featured in Elaine's cancelled Reclamation, but I believe she hasn't spoken on him -- she avoids speculating on Realmslore now -- and other authors have left him alone as 'Elaine's character', but I'm not certain.
