Synopsis
Arin, an Elven lady, has recurring visions. One shows a coming war in which dragons and armies devastate Mithgar. The vision holds riddles she must solve to prevent it, and solving them requires a long journey tied to the Dragonstone, a powerful relic. The visions keep returning, and the riddles they contain are her only clue to stopping the war, so she sets out to decode the prophecy and find the stone before the fighting can begin.
