Tippy used a Sending to tell Duke Cholmondeley what was happening. Cholmondeley put his foot down immediately. In fact, he put both feet down because he was just getting off his horse, Harrington. "No, Sir Theodore, I need you here. And Jones is to report back for re-assignment of duties; demigod or no demigod he's still under orders."
Tippy relayed the news to the others. "Does this mean that we have to split the party?" asked Albert in a worried voice.
It seemed they did.
"I vote Jones for DM," suggested Tasha. "He's already a demigod, might as well go the whole hog."
"But I have to report back to Southborough?"
"That's okay, you can do that off-stage. Just announce it's happened."
Jones cleared his throat. So this is what it meant to be a demigod.

"Right," said DM Jones briskly. "Goat, Albert and Tasha, you are in Ratherside, a small town of thatched houses situated on a bend in the River Rather and lying in the shadow of the orc-infested mountain of Attan's Peak. The town is peopled by the misunderdead. Night is falling and you have repaired to the local inn which is called The Three Knaves. A Bard is entertaining the customers. What are you going to do?"Tippy went back to Southborough Castle, taking his ex-familiar ClaW with him for company. Sergeant Jones went as his military escort, attended by his fledgling halfling acolyte and her pet baby spectator who was too young to go adventuring on its own. This left ₼₼₼₼₼₼₼₼ the Wizard, Albert the Thief and Tasha the Fighter, those three stalwarts who had met all that time ago outside the Awning Pothole, to carry on the quest on their own.
