+===== Miscellaneous =====
+==== Childhood Connections ====
+Rose, [[taron|King Taron]], and [[tarik_nowlin|Tarik Nowlin]] all grew up in [[jolev|Jolev]] together;
+>//“You know we used to call him the Coward of [[jolev|Jolev]]? Ran from everything and never wanted to get his boots muddy when we were young."// Rose, about [[taron|Taron]] - Silver Threads of Fate (LC1)
+>//You slip [[taron_s_ring|Taron’s ring]] on your finger and focus your mind on Rose. She’s lost in a series of memories of all the times she chased a devious young [[tarik_nowlin|Tarik]] around the hills and beaches of [[jolev|Jolev]].// - Silver Threads of Fate (LC1)
+>//“Gods, she was a real bully,” he tells you. “Never left me alone when we were young. After her dad died, she started talking about the [[planes|planes]] and wearing the [[starlit_door|Starlit Door’s]] ring.// - [[tarik_nowlin|Tarik]], Silver Threads of Fate (LC1)
+==== Father ====
+Rose's father lost his life in service to the crown, on an expedition to acquire relics of intraplanar power;
+>//“It was a shame what happened to her father under [[amalia|Amalia’s]] command,” he tells you, “but still, that is no excuse for what she has become."// - [[taron|Taron]], Silver Threads of Fate (LC1)
+>//The tension among the three of them persisted and then worsened when Rose’s father went missing on a mission for the queen. It was [[amalia|Amalia’s]] orders that led to his fate, but it was [[taron|Taron’s]] interest in the power of planar artifacts that motivated the mission.// - Silver Threads of Fate (LC1)
+==== Romance ====
+After slipping on [[taron_s_ring|Taron's ring]] it is revealed she harbored many deeper feelings for his wife, the late [[amalia|Queen Amalia]]:
+>//But another, more powerful possibility motivates Rose’s search — the chance of finding something that belonged to [[amalia|Amalia]], [[taron|Taron's]] late wife and the former queen. Apparently, Rose’s feelings for [[amalia|Amalia]] run rather deep.// - Silver Threads of Fate (LC1)
+>//It seems she kissed a boy for the first time — and a girl for the second time — both here in this cave. The boy’s name you don’t recognize, but the girl is [[amalia|Amalia]], former queen of [[nalos|Nalos]].// - Silver Threads of Fate (LC1)
+>//One moment stands out above the rest, a formative memory. Rose sits alone on a bluff looking out over the ocean, pining for a childhood love who married a man and would soon be crowned [[nalos|Nalos’]] new queen.// - Silver Threads of Fate (LC1)
+She also has harbored a level of resentment for [[taron|King Taron]]:
+>//You hand Rose the bluestone fireball and she gleefully crushes it against King Taron’s face. The resulting explosion blows you and Rose against the chamber walls, but she cannot stop laughing. “Oh gods! I’ve always wanted to do that.”// - Silver Threads of Fate (LC1)
+>//You slip Taron’s ring on your finger and focus on Rose. It seems Taron’s display of taxidermied heads is even more disturbing to her than she is letting on. She knew Taron fairly well in their youth, and to think that he could enjoy having such a grotesque collection makes her worry not only about him but about her own judgment of character.// - Silver Threads of Fate (LC1)
+>//It seems Rose blames Taron for the death of his wife, Queen Amalia.// - Silver Threads of Fate (LC1)

+The rest of [[sabek|Sabek]] is frozen in time thanks to the actions of [[taron|King Taron]]. You alone are able to move freely through the city and numerous rifts that you find.
+You discover Rose as you step through a rift in the [[frogkin_temple|Frogkin Temple]] in [[bogroot_swamp|Bogroot Swamp]]. She stands frozen in front of the statue of [[buurglap|Buurglap]], holding an ornate bowl in her hands. Two [[klynoks|Klynoks]] appear on the other side of the temple, seemingly interested in the bowl in her hands. Depending on your previous interactions with them, you will have a choice to make.
+  * If known to them, you can either:
+    * Help the [[klynoks|Klynoks]] take the bowl.
+    * Drive them off with force.
+  * If you are considered hostile, you can:
+    * Defend yourself.
+    * Refuse to draw your weapon and attempt to make peace.
+Following this encounter, you may be able to free Rose from her current frozen condition. She could prove to be of help in other locations. And you may just learn a thing or two about others along the way.
