[QUOTE="LostSoul, post: 6183524, member: 386"] After freeing the slaves, the PCs went up into the mountains to find Mount Stalagos. They came up with a plan to blame Naquent for the missing slaves - they were from another (secret) temple nearby and heard that Naquent was planning to take all the slaves there and become the high priestess. I don't know if anyone believed this story, but the Chaotic Evil cultists - especially Tessimon - were happy to help out anyone who could help them rise in the ranks. Now time was passing behind the scenes. It took a few days for the temples to notice that something had gone wrong in Rastor - they'd send a wagon out during the week, and it should return the next night, and only then were they alerted. Tessimon knew something was up before the rest of them, so she started to cast Scrying and even Called a Quasit. Here are her questions and the answers: [indent]is the group working with the fanes? no is the group known to us? no is the group sent by the forces of good? no are they local? no will scrying on them work? yes are they ready for me? no[/indent] Tessimon started Scrying on "the one who killed Tal", which was Zod, but was unable to find him (because the lack of connection gave him the +10 save bonus). The PCs spotted the scrying sensor and became anxious. Faschish sent troops to Rastor and had Choranth assume control. She started buying what slaves she could with the cash they had left over. Tessimon prepares to strike at the Fire Temple, just like in the module. The Earth Temple decides that they might as well sacrifice the nearby humans manning the main gate, which puts Mereclar on a state of alert. Naquent makes her rounds, paying off everyone, collecting their incense, and - because they don't want to be blamed for what's happened in Rastor - she doesn't learn about the chaos rippling through the Temple of All-Consumption. (Chaotic Evil, after all...) By the time the PCs make it to the Main Gate, the whole scheme is starting to fall apart... [/QUOTE]
