Fractured Crown

Synopsis

Dragon’s Rise (Past)
You have two main paths for the dragon:
1A) Passive or non-evil dragon: The dragon loses its tail, tree grows and absorbs magic/ energy, depleting the local lands. 4 “factions” more secrets to uncover
1B) Aggressive/ evil dragon: The dragon loses one of its horns, used by the country as a warhorn, boosting army, weakening enemies, makes country more aggressive than otherwise would be. 2-3 factions & more sneaking or combat is needed

Party is tasked to find the fruit or steal the magical item possessed by the aggressive country.

Event similar to earthquake happens, cracks bark off tree or horn falls to ground- dragon feels its missing part and seeks it out (not necessarily right away)

Tree path has more secrets involved, but horn has some.
