Before now the dragons did not have any sort of structural leadership or government in place. They just did whatever it is they wanted to do, and roamed around in clicks of the two main species. But with our arrival there was a ripple of change, and a lot of things had to be addressed. But before those issues could be addressed, we were already leaving, being drawn out by the troubles that awaits us back on Shearath.
Which means we will be leaving a power vacuum, which was why Adamas had no other choice but to stay back. Ashes was not really interested about how the realm of the kings would be led, as long as it did not interfere with her fun. The origin fire dragon was spontaneous, wild and erratic, just like the element she embodied, and just like her queen. So obviously leaving her behind to watch after other dragons won't work out, leaving Adamas as the only other available and most probable option. But in the end, we were not leaving alone.
