The Burning Crown
While exploring the Cinderscarred Vale, you learn of a mysterious item called the Burning Crown. This item will bestow great powers, but it has been shattered, its pieces scattered throughout the region. You can attempt to collect the fragments, but doing so requires that you scour the valley and brave its dangers. These pieces may allow you to craft powerful artifacts.

With the help of Caerdon, an elf native to this valley, you track the fire wolf lord to his lair on a rocky island surrounded by a burning moat of lava. Gerrulas, a massive wolf more flame than fur, crouches into a defensive stance.

The Searing Maze
Searing hot magma carved out these blackened tunnels long ago, but vents still belch forth flames and ash. Sometimes a new upheaval deeper underground forces a new river of molten rock to pour in, or collapses a tunnel or cave.
Even without these deadly hazards, navigating the maze of tunnels is difficult at best. Still, Caerdon assures you that not only is this the lair of Orrugan, it's also the way out of the valley. You must forge onward, through the maze!

Boss fight: Caerdon the Betrayer
The lava elves that arrived with Caerdon seem as surprised as you that he is, in fact, your foe. With a wave of his hand, he conjures fire wolves and lava elementals to his side. Fire wells about him as the cavern floor cracks and buckles. Once the ground stills, with a quiet voice, he commands his deadly forces to attack.
