Mount Vael · The Ember Vault
Can you steal the dragon’s treasure?
Three relics. Forty-eight heartbeats. One very light sleeper.
The sleeping draught is taking hold. The vault waits beyond the arch.
A thief’s answer is written in footsteps
The Ember Vault
Vael sleeps beneath a witch’s draught—but only for forty-eight heartbeats.
Gold hides danger. Bones crack loudly, embers hiss, and the dragon’s nest is impassable. Move with arrows, WASD, the map, or the direction pad.
