Mysterious Embers

Mysterious Embers - Investigation 2

A group of people all with their own different reasons for getting involved (if any at all) gathered together at the sight of a plume of smoke in the Kysei region - too big to be a standard campfire, and too small to be a raging forest fire or town fire. They discovered the source of the smoke to be a lone, uprooted tree set ablaze - and ran into a rogue using it as a campfire.

Talking to him, they were told that he was not the cause of this fire, and happened to be in the area at the time - dousing the ground with water to present the spread of the fire to any meaningful degree and then settling down like it was a campfire all the same. He claimed that the cause was a bright light - one like you'd see in your dreams - and that it was gone as quick as it came.

With no leads for the group to go on from this, he told them a tale of a group of people with a devotion to the Primal Fire Deity, Nairyf. He noted that this was an old story, and that they'd all since disappeared - but mentioned a temple in a cave in the hills that they built before whatever uncertain fate awaited them. He said they were supposedly peaceful, so couldn't see why it would be them - or why they'd still be alive, but nevertheless, this gave the group direction.

They marched onwards in search of this location to perform a surface level investigation of the area, traversing into the cave but deciding to take a wrong turn, where they were ambushed by constructs of fire that seemed intent on keeping them at bay, at all costs. The group took down two and fled the scene before any more problems occurred, leaving with an interesting orb in tow.

Perhaps they'll be back with more firepower, next time?
