Amaretto

Lore prompt by @Hyzenthlaay

A strange hobbyist whose hoard is entirely comprised of accounts of other derg's fortunes. She tracks down visitors fresh off the heels of a visit from famed oracles, tarot readers, and other future seekers in order to record their accounts, which she will eventually compile into a massive tome. Her home lies in a garden that exists in stark contrast to the boiling lava it sits inside, seemingly untouched by the extreme heat.

Impression by @SilverSilver:

The lava flow and the gardens planted on top of ruins, captured songbirds and vials of cinnamon and spice. Lattices glittering with gemstones, terracotta pots of bursting flowers, a song of delight and harmony, clever claws and quicker tongues. Honey and citrus, the height of the day, the hidden pathways and uncommon flowers. In the depths of the raucous garden sits a rare gem under a ivory statue; fortune hangs still, depending on your answer.
