Discovery by Kessell Content
The sorcerer Akar Kessell uncovered Crenshinibon and used its power to achieve his own twisted goals. For five years he plotted and schemed in Cryshal Tirith in the mountains, preparing to make war on Icewind Dale. His ultimate goal is unknown, as he was defeated in his attempt to conquer Bryn Shander.
Many questions remain unanswered about Kessell. He seems to have been very secretive in his rise to power, as there is nothing written of his life prior to finding the Shard. It seems unlikely that he found Crenshinibon by chance, but it is possible. It is more likely that he sought the artifact, perhaps having read of Kelvin's reign and subsequent fall. If so, it is likely that he had access to the lore of the Stone Giants, so surely we would have learned of him.
The third possibility is that the Shard sought out Akar Kessell. If so, Crenshinibon must have believed that the mage was the ideal person to wield its power, which seems to have been an error. Perhaps the Shard chose Kessell as part of a more complex long-term plan.
