At this point, with the other group largely done, are we dragging things out trying for the warden's, especially since there's a fairly significant NPC indication that we may wind up in an actual combat encounter I don't want everyone else sitting on their hands for the length of a PBP fight if we can avoid it?
Tailspinner, I don't want to meta-game too heavily, but a little guidance would be appreciated. Like I said, I don't want to sideline too many people for too long, especially if the trek to the warden really is meant to begin the plot / encounters proper.
