There isn't a Uktar 6, because nothing happened and I didn't want to spend more time on them than I needed to. The adventure is time dependent (the final event is a festival that has a specified day in the Realms, but it's not listed in the adventure), so I gave myself a month until the final event. I figured that I would skip days where nothing happened, unless the PCs did something, and those days didn't require a broadsheet. I had more broadsheets earlier in the adventure, mostly because I had a lot of info to give the players. Later sessions had fewer and fewer.The worst experience with this was when I needed to put out a broadsheet mid-session, but didn't know how one event would play out. I cunningly wrote two versions, depending on the player's actions (it was a binary situation), and printed both. I handed out the broadsheet for the next day half-way though the session and expected amazement at my foresight. Instead I heard cries of outrage... as I had given out the wrong one! I fessed up and after taking back (and destroying) the wrong broadsheets, I handed out the correct ones <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f631.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":o" title="Eek!    :o"  data-smilie="9"data-shortname=":o" /></blockquote>
