With age comes wisdom. For an experienced adventurer, it also comes with back pain.
Taking quests, exploring ruins, and camping under the stars. For Dobbin Thornhill, there’s no better life than an adventurer’s, especially with a reputation like his.
His latest task? Retrieving the rare and mystical dragonfire mushroom for one of Eastborne’s secret societies. To find it, Dobbin must venture deep into Hells’ Crag, a dragon-ruined city still haunted by restless spirits centuries after the attack. The dangers are great, but the reward is tempting enough to shoulder the risk—one more time.
While Dobbin’s past has led to a life of solo adventures, some jobs can’t be done alone. For him, letting others in isn’t just about survival—it’s about facing the ghosts of his past and finding strength in the unlikeliest of allies.
In a land of shadows, trust might be the most pivotal gamble of all.

The polished wood notes create a sense of warmth and stability, while the light musk adds a subtle softness, making the overall fragrance both bold and inviting. It brings a refined, atmospheric quality to any space, like stepping into a room filled with history and character.
Why we chose this: Dobbin has made a career of solo adventures, but this quest into a dragon-ruined city haunted by restless spirits is the one that will finally ask him to let someone else in. Mahogany + Teakwood carries the deep, atmospheric warmth of spaces that hold centuries of history, the scent of old wood and quiet stories in places where something significant once happened and never quite left. Light this candle as Dobbin ventures into Hells' Crag, and let the grounding richness of mahogany and oak fill the room like ruins that remember everything.
