Time for a new one!

Yeah, I also thought his specialty lies elsewhere but he was the most likely person I could think of. And I seriously doubt they're going to invoke the wrong god. That would be way too obvious. It should be something subtle that is just enough to break it. Or hell, how about this. Have the ghostfence be activated in sections as it gets built. Then we can see that something went wrong if a newly finished part of the ghostfence is weak/flickers or something. It doesn't need to be completely broken, just not functioning the way it should be. Could be a mere accident, could be sabotage. Either way, it sounds worth investigating to me.

Have Rothan ask Dralas if he can identify the ones who did the ritual since Dralas mentioned earlier that he was there the day before or something.

Or maybe do that after visiting the cave if we're going to do that. Ya know, give the guys time to finish the section instead of having everything happen within hours of each other.

As for Eno, I can think of two reasons for him to go. Well, not reasons, just ways for him to be useful.
1: Pull some previously unmentioned skill or knowledge out of his behind and probably link it to his Redoran past.
2 (more sensible): Make use of his habit of making his own tools and have him come along as a sort of item repair guy. Much easier than taking a whole forge with you and a big toolbox or a billion spares. Same thing with locked doors. If it isn't magic, he could probably whip up a key out of twigs and bone fragments. But then again, we could just have someone pick the damn lock and be on our way in ten minutes.


For Haz, Rothan probably won't find him and even if they do come across each other, odds are that Rothan won't recognize him. Although, a tailless Argonian stands out a bit. Yeah, it's a double-edged sword but I needed the disguise ability. Anyway, you can have Rothan just casually look around as he goes about his bussiness and perhaps become slightly worried after having been all over the camp.


Ok then, back to the ash-statue idea and then I'll shut up. I agree it would be best to use tomorrow to gather rumours and we can put them all together at a campfire and then decide: could be worth investigating. Or maybe they just put them all together, shrug about it, have Apelles then pass over the word to a superior (Sleeper?) who then basically gives him the order to go out and find it.

Next morning, Apelles rounds up the rest of our dudes (minus Haz obviously) and invites them to come along since they know as much about it as he does and he already knows that they're not useless in a fight...well most of them. Also, he should probably mention that he's cleared things already with the administration so that if they go along, they won't be reported as slacking off on the worksite and later find that they have to pay a fine/doing extra work when they come back.
