Tale of Two Sisters: Episode 10 - Rosenstone

Saladar witnesses a dream of his past, he awakens to an intruder who has swiftly left his cabin. Picking up his stuff, he makes chase early in the morning. Leaving the Anthem District of The Emerald Hollow. He follows this character who is described as having blonde and golden hair with highlights of rainbow colours matched with a clumsy walk. Chasing her all the way to the Geneva District, Saladar Al Shalim waits on her couch whilst she rummages through her works.
Saladar Al Shalim realises she's an artist of sorts. Startling her, she eventually introduces herself as Minnow Evergold. Whom describes herself proudly as a plant eating maniac who quells visions from them. A vision she describes as a constant headache for, as it mostly features Saladar Al Shalim in them.
Curious to know, Saladar Al Shalim questions Minnow Evergold on her vision, she correctly describes past events in accordance to what has just happened. She realises the last vision she had experienced is one where she hands something to Saladar Al Shalim. What the gift is, she doesn't know but she tells Saladar Al Shalim she may be able to see the vision clearly if she had the right ingredients.
She describes the thing she needs is something called "Rosenstone", nicknamed "Princess' Tear". A flower that appears like a shard, she said it tends to grow on ravines. Saladar Al Shalim accepts the quest to find the Rosenstone and hopefully figure out what Minnow Evergold's gift was.
Later in the morning, Saladar Al Shalim, Gnaw'd Rotflesh & Jascha are awaken by Siona Nathildur & Mivli Xanaer. Whom ask if they would like to have some food before they set off to do whatever. They all go to The Whistling Raven in The Emerald Hollow located in Upper-Vine of the Pergola District.
On the way to The Whistling Raven. The Crimson Companions meet Waylar & Natari Diretooth who are District Knights of The Emerald Hollow.
Wilhelm Ironbark doesn't manage to wake in time. He is instead awoken by Benny Ramsay who they had met earlier when they first entered The Emerald Hollow. Benny Ramsay hands Wilhelm Ironbark a letter that from Mivli Xanaer that explains they're all at The Whistling Raven having some food. Mivli Xanaer also explains that she has left her door open incase Wilhelm Ironbark wants to pick up the dino-cat, she had offered earlier. Wilhelm Ironbark makes his way to The Whistling Raven along with Reanna Laerillin.
Once everyone had met up at The Whistling Raven, Mivli Xanaer tells The Crimson Companions how she had gotten captured, she had been investigating The Legion of The Hidden's plans. Getting captured in the process. It wasn't long before The Crimson Companions had come to save them. She tells them that they had been processing Kimaran Smokepowder. Gnaw'd Rotflesh recognises it as an alchemical substance that when lit can create a powerful explosion. What they plan to do with it remains a mystery. Mivli also says that Vesryn appeared to belong to an elite group of the cult, that they're appearances are dictated by the colour of their masks.
Once finished eating, Mivli Xanaer takes them to The Crown District further up north to meet with Zilvio Maze & Corrin Firefingers whom will help them find Tillina Kinato.
Along the way they meet Esumi Myoto who is another District Knight. She joins their company as they make their way to the Map Room in Highgarden.
Here they are met with Zilvio Maze & Corrin Firefingers who had already prepared a map along with details and notes on how to reach The Queen's Eye, Zilvio Maze claims that clues to Mirakeno may be hidden there. Corrin explains that the area around The Queen's Eye is infested with snakes, he also tells them that the ancient cities of The Silmeirans are all connected and protected with a special kind of magic, to reach them isn't an easy task and will require knowledge that may be locked away in other places. Corrin Firefingers also says if they wish to know more about the area, they can ask one of the scouts who had been there and got away, despite it being a traumatic experience, a man named Akkar who lives in the Geneva District.
Saladar Al Shalim asks Corrin Firefingers if he would know where to find The Rosenstone Plant, with it being a ravine based flower - he marks a location of a ravine that he is aware of. However if they plan on going to The Queen's Eye and decide to go to the ravine first, it will increase their travel time by an extra day.
Before they head out, Wilhelm Ironbark goes to pick up Zulu (formerly Milo), as their pet companion. After he does some shopping before heading off.
Gnaw'd Rotflesh & Jascha head to The Geneva District to find Akkar. Though what initally appeared to be a simple well thought out plan of conversing with Akkar, turned out to instead be a heist for a book he was reading. Gnaw'd Rotflesh successful manages to break into his home and steal a book on Fishing. They don't manage to discuss anything with Akkar, but they didn't walk out empty handed.
The Crimson Companions make their way towards the ravine that Corrin Firefingers had kindly marked on their map.
They manage to find a ravine on their way a little earlier than expected, deciding to give it an explore they have a run in with Crystal Raptors & a Spidersnake. The Crimson Companions make quick work of them.
