History

This game was started around the turning of eras, it started in the Hill Lands with the Alrites as a game that was played to test their luck and strategy. It then traveled with those who left the area for the southern areas and joined the Albenis people, and became common place with them as well.

Execution

To play this game you must have a five pointed star, fancy sets will have a start painted on it, while a lot of people will play with sticks, branches, or even flower stems, as the lines of the star.

Each player (up to five) will place one of their Rose Tokens on any point of a star or line intersection. The go clockwise around the circle placing down their tokens.
Continuing around the same clockwise pater as before the players will each take one turn per round. On a turn they can either roll the dice, or move a piece in play. All while trying to win the game by placing all five of your rose tokens on all the points of the star, or being the last on to have tokens on the board.
On of the actions you can take on your turn is rolling the dice. You do this if you wish to add a piece to the board. Formal sets will have roses carves on three sides of the dice, a moon on one side of the dice, and the elements on the remaining two. Otherwise people will use the numbers to represent these, usually saying that even numbers are roses, threes and fives are elements, and a one is the moon. Whatever the dice lands on you can add to the board, if it is a rose you can place it on an adjacent spot to any of your rose tokens. If it is a moon or element you can place it below one of your roses face down so that no one else knows what in underneath. You can only have one under each rose.
