They have just taken the next step by making a bargain with an otherworldly being who has revealed themselves to them and been given a taste of otherworldly power in that form of an eldritch blast and two spells. The otherworldly being promises them more power, but only if they do its bidding on the Material Plane. And for the new warlock to do that means having to leave their home, their former profession and go abroad as an adventurer. For their own protection, the Warlock seeks out and joins a party of fellow adventurers. Overtime, the warlock becomes more powerful with its' patron's aid.Does this meet the A5e/5e narrative you were looking for? If so, please sign here on the dotted line...  Now, the pact between otherworldly being and warlock could have been done at 3rd level, but why would the former wait so long to seal the deal? What it's in it for the otherworldly being to do so? The last thing it wants is for its' tool to wise up and leave before the deal has been made, and with some of its' powers are already invested within in it. I wonder if WoTC looked at the warlock/patron relationship from the patron's point of view. Probably not.</blockquote>
