The young dungeon master in training walked into the royal palace, he was holding a tattered book like it was worth its weight in adamantine.He sat down at the table showing the old logbook to the queen,he opened it up to the first page and pushed it toward the queen then took a hearty swig of Longland beer.The Queen's eyes read through the ripped logbook.

*Written in blood there is a name*
The queen closed the book after seeing the blood.She thought for a moment then scribbled something down on a piece of paper and handed it to the dungeon master saying,"Take this to hermit in the south named Kr ah Viencutter.Oh...and don't,
don't drink anything he offers you." ,the trainee walked off looking a little worried.
When he was in the desert south of Rockore he read the message, *I need you to brew something to make nightmares go away about 20 vials of it and make it taste like dwarven rum.* ,he sighed and continued walking to where the hermit lived,he gave the message over to the Hermit a few days later.The Hermit was angry for being interrupted from reading his book which the trainee red when he was being trained as a dungeon master it was called
A study on Dragons except the spine was twenty inches high and 8 and a half inches wide.He threw some herbs that the trainee recognized as Mosin and Rock-moss in twenty vials he put caps on them and put them in a big cauldron.He went back to reading and a little while later,he got up and took the vials out of the cauldron and handed them to the waiting Dungeon master in training,who put them in his backpack.
He walked north back to Rockore but not before pausing in the desert and he took one vial out of his pack and examined it.It smelt like rum, but it was obsidian in color with red swirling around he took a small lick and it tasted like rum,he put the stopper back in and walked back to the fortress.He gave it to the queen after resting and before he left he was given a pass and the queen told him something,"You'll be in charge of the next settlement at the site.",the trainee turned pale and fled the country.She ordered her servants to pour the stuff into the rum going to the site,she then assembled 4 miners and 2 farmers and a trader to go to the site,they complied and set out to the mining site.They all heard the rumors of what was there but didn't say anything to the greedy Queen.They set out with heavy hearts and a heavier wagon.
