[QUOTE="Lylandra, post: 7790338, member: 6816692"] Yep, taking Balace to the Valley is actually discussed in the adventure and they would start getting better immediately as soon as they left Eresh. So both the Rags and the villagers will come out of their stupor by that time. So, in regards to what happens next, there are a few variables to consider: [LIST] [*]did the party close the wooden gate to Eresh? And if they did, did they lock it? [*]did the party reduce the number of Rags in Eresh? (forcing them out, beating them unconscious, locking them up, killing them?) [*]did the party tell Caela about the Ragesians? [/LIST] So what could happen, in my opinion: [LIST] [*]Both sides come out of their stupor [*]the Ragesian commander Kormus realizes that his boss (Signus) will call for his head if he cannot deliver results, so he rallies his troops to attack. He does so without rational thought as his emotions flood back at once. [*]if the gate is still open, Kormus will storm into Eresh and take the village with relative ease (you'd have a lot of casualties among the villagers as tensions are very high after Balance's disappearance. See poor Tashalanos.) [*]if the gate is closed and secured, the villagers might have enough time to set up defenses. Still, the remaining Rags in Eresh may cause a massacre as they're the ones who experience a blood rush and many villagers are stupefied. Should the Rags finally regain a bit of clarity, they may then try to open the gate from the inside. [*]if the party removed some or all of the Rags, then Eresh will have a much more easier time defending the village [*]if, however, Eresh is taken by the Rags, then Pilus may summon his storm at some point to eradicate all of the village AND the Ragesians. [/LIST] All in all, what happens totally depends on the party ;) oh and pst, it's Signus. You probably don't want to kill off Magdus at this point. [/QUOTE]
