[QUOTE="Quickleaf, post: 7275862, member: 20323"] Good questions! :) 1: Yes, Khaldun is located at the eastern edge of the Badu al-Kabir. Leaving Hakim oasis you could travel E-by-SE until you hit the dry riverbed of Al-Sabiya River, then follow that south until you reach Khaldun. 2: Very possibly, yes, the Khalduni jann may be opposed to the Brotherhood (by virtue of the possibility that the mages the Shakaris allied with may have been Brotherhood). The politics are a bit complex, but I'm also giving you the version thru Usqual's eyes, with all his prejudices and personal biases. 3: I think that's a question for your party to answer, but I assumed it was because folks thought the jann might be a good source of information. Are they truly "wicked"? I've intentionally left the absolute truth of that ambiguous. From Usqual al-Shakari's anti-civilization pro-tribal wandering perspective? Yeah, it sounds like the jann of Khaldun would qualify as "wicked" because they have settled down in a "village" made possible by magic & bring stranded travelers and captives into their fold through the "water price". Again, you have incomplete details from a biased source. 4: Yep, long rest, everyone should be back at full AFAICT. 5: I may have forgotten to narrate Usqual's reaction. I'll go back and read. Since it wasn't a great sacrifice on your part (i.e. just a bit of narrative creativity, not giving up a magic item or something), I'll probably just let it be a role-playing exchange between Lal & Usqual, or at most he'll give Lal a trinket in return.
