The Draconic Crux
Story arc 1: Wildspace Dragons
Inside the Crimson Jewel's Council, a temple dedicated to Sardior in the Rock of Bral, lies a powerful relic—the Draconic Crux Menhir. According to Sardior's lorekeepers, the relic, in addition to the belief of other dragons who studied the poem "Elegy for the First World," is a receptacle for Sardior's shattered consciousness, which contains obscure knowledge of the multiverse.
Recently, fearless rogues have raided the relic's chamber, which is just another cache of the high priest's treasure hoard—an amethyst greatwyrm called Relnananecer. Furthermore, she is the only Sardior's lorekeeper still alive. The rogues targeted the relic's current devices assembled on the menhir—dragon body parts made of priceless gems. Each gem has five encrusted jewels—3 star rubies and 2 star sapphires containing recorded studies from specific areas of knowledge.
Unknown to most rogues who dare to enter the relic's chamber, anyone but the high priest who removes a device or its jewels from the menhir carries a curse until personally returning the stolen items to their rightful place. In addition, one day after the theft, all jewels turn into rock dice engraved with unusual runes, while the menhir and devices turn into pumice. Likewise, all rock dice and devices teleport to random locations, appearing in closer areas within the theft’s epicenter, then expanding gradually to anywhere in the multiverse.
Frustrated rather than furious, Jahmoh Rinem—Relnananecer disguised in human form has been calling for the help of trustworthy adventuring companies, factions, religious organizations, and friendly thieves' guilds to track down and retrieve the stolen relic’s items throughout wildspace's systems. Once she was very close to fully assembling the relic, restoring Sardior's vestige to life, two questions remained in Relnananecer's mind—who is the powerful being behind the heist, and are there spies among her clergy?
