The Fire Rose
FIRE ROSE
ASHEN THORNS
In the city of Natkva a noble widow is giving a 200gp reward for a jewel of Fire Rose her late husband talked about. He was a part of a hidden society.
the late husband's journal talks about the piece of a puzzle to the east, within The Murk.
going east and coming upon a river, the two stone doorways seem to connect a bridge across a canyon, but the bridge is gone.
The Sun Doorway has an inscription:
Majestic the fire rose
In the land where mountains spit and smoke
From the egg resting on the bed of gold
Find the hoard
With the magic don't be boldsearching for a key that would activate the bridge they stumble upon a tomb of what looks like to be one of the Fire Rose guardians. It holds the needed key.
The Moon Doorway has an inscription:
In the cradle of the full moon
lies the gateway to Ukhu Pacha,
where the servant lingersBartholomew knows that "Ukhu Pacha" means "the world below".
In the Land of Liberation (Swolea), the group finds ruins of an old temple. Upon it, a symbol is continually shown in the shine of worked-in jewels.
Old writings on the collapsed walls talk about:
a demon that enslaved multiple civilisations.
the Fire Rose is its most prized possession.
the slaves were put to work to build a place for the Fire Rose and fill it with riches.
a doorway to the east.
The group comes upon a portal with many symbols, including the one found at the temple. It leads them to the land of Ukhu Patcha, but instead of the underworld, it is a land of broken earth. There they find a cave with a dragon hoard and pieces of a hatched egg upon a pedestal. The mural on the wall talks about many worlds and more besides:the demon is a human figure presented as black fire.
it has armies in its possession.
the hatched dragon would be their general.
On Torkos , the group tells their findings to a mage, who gets quite interested in the tale. In return, the mage presents the name of the red dragon that hatched: Amaru.

Wendy and her old group met another adventurer group that is searching for a Fire Rose jewel. A noble lady in the city of Natkva-Tiwa offers 200gp for it.
the group was very secretive about their quest, not wanting to share the spoils.
Later, Wendy and her old group stumbled upon a dragon hoard and the adventurers that were killing each other for it.
