This is awfully kind of you. Fun without being overly lenient though which is great. I honestly wish I could have connected this better. I made a different decision though, but it sounds awesome. Very FF9 reminiscent, and I mean that in a good way.

A Prison, A Crystal, and A Wulf It has been a long time, so apologies there, but between scheduling problems and just a longer section, we finally finished up the 8th adventure! As an aside, we continue to upload our sessions on various streaming sites, and just this week have started uploading...

100% agree with @RangerWickett here, it wasn't Deception but a fake. If you really hate that, just use another trillith instead. Change up adventure 6's twist if you don't want to follow the same deceit style traits. I don't think this is a huge problem long term honestly.

They aren't supposed to be. I have warned them to not.

To Blind an Eye Arriving back in Seaquen, the group is lauded as heroes when the Torch is noticed in Bryn's hands. Simeon find them quickly and talks to them, disclosing that they have successfully translated the book of intel from so long ago. The true dual meaning of the Scourge is becoming...

I had her play a hard line. If your players need the help, it might be worth dropping hints that they can always work to get the case after regrouping and coming at things from another direction. I wouldn't feel bad dropping that as a hint if the players were completely unwilling to allow the...

Phorros Irrendra The next few sessions are from entering to exiting Phorros Irrendra. As an aside for @RangerWickett - Is Rhuarc an homage to Wheel of Time? Heading into the tunnel, the group was not so concerned about the lack of light... right up until combat started. As they ran into a...

My group as well did the "Secret Tunnel" fun actually. We have some very similar players I feel!

Into Ycengled This will be a recap of the next few sessions, from the end of the temple until heading to Phorros Irrendra. This may be shorter though as it mainly ran smoothly and according to the story. Coming out of the combat, the group takes some time to consider the meanings behind the...

So the boots filled with dirt thing is a Dasseni culture item that's talked about more in adventure 4, but the idea is that they will always be on home soil since they have a bit in their boots at all times. It's a gimmicky tradition, but it's one that would show that these bodies were Dasseni...

The Truth of a Vision This review will be for the whole of the Temple of Echoed Souls (save the discussion afterwards). I waited to do a write up for a good section to be completed rather than every session; hopefully that is an improvement and not a disappointment, but we shall see. With a...

I would personally not use one of the main trillith as I think that will get too complicated too early (assuming you want to play the full thing). Running into Deception or Indomitability so early I think would make things tough to allow the character to grow. I would make one of your own or...

My personal thoughts on this are two-fold - First, Shalosha has been brainwashed effectively by her father her whole life, right? So she believes whatever he says to her. Second, his official story here is that they were a threat to Shahalesti, so she would have thought that to be justified...

Well all of this sounds very familiar to me and my game... I'm glad to hear my party is not the only ones to sacrifice Haddin to the Scourge!

Don't be afraid to make the adventure your own. What I mean is two-fold. First, don't worry about being wrong, especially if you haven't read ahead. Just roll with it when new information comes out. Secondly, the adventure path is fleshed out well, but not immutable. Change things when needed -...
