Based on @
extralead posts, I made a skeleton of the adventure (again, I'm
adapting it to Eberron), which I show below.
Keep in mind that the trip length seems a bit long, but heck, this (and Omu) is the most interesting part of the adventure IMHO. I'll probably change the Death Curse form -1HP each day to -1hp each 1d4 days to accomodate the "time bomb effect" for NPCs, but right now I think i'll use Find Artus Cimber as the major plot until the Curse kicks in and shakes things up.
Also, I'm adding a few places and side quests based on 3.5 Eberron books, so if you think something sound off (like a new guide, quest, location), it's because it's not in this book.
