There Be Dragons Here

**At 182 years old, Hilda Rockfall thought her adventuring days were long behind her.** For over seventy years, she roamed the realm as a ranger with the adventuring party Stone & Splendor—taking quests, slaying beasts, and collecting monster teeth like trophies from the boundless sea to the edge of the wilds. But for the past eight decades, she's traded her sword for slippers, living the quiet life of a proud grandmother nestled in the mountains, telling tales no one quite believes and baking a mean honey crumble. That peace is shattered when an old friend—and former party member—passes on and leaves Hilda one final quest: scatter his ashes at a secret location marked on a map they looted back in their glory days. Hilda figures it’ll be a nice little hike. Maybe a nostalgic trip down memory lane. But then she opens the map. And scrawled across the bottom in faded ink are four unsettling words: **There be dragons here.**
