Upon my return to this plane I was given a vision of a fully armored fellow with  his visor down.  This vision informed me that he was there to tell me that my retainers would be returning to this world in about a weeks time.  Furthermore I was to hide myself from them as they were now aware of my true nature.  I was to track them as an observer but was forbidden to contact them.  I was told that everything would be made clear.So there was nothing else to it.  I gathered thier things andprepared them for immediate departure.  I wrote a letter to a curior service and told then to watch the north gate for people matching the description of my retainers.  I then proceeded to collect a few things and made it known that I had left the manor and all its contents to another who was to eventually arrive in waterdeep.  I let people in town know that I was leaving the city for a very long time.  Investigating the graveyard they went to, I found that their presence had been completely erased. The letter simply stated: To my fiends and former retainers,Do not question your memories.  Some things have been changed that might make you do so.  I assure you that everything in the graveyard happened just as you remember it.  For your gear and animals, check thestables.  The caretakers will assist you any way they can.  As for me I have many things to do and little time to do them.  Should any one of you ever need to reach me be rest assured that I will find you first.   I am not one for long goodbyes.  yours, Tris. PS, about thewhole dragon thing, mums the word!My diplomat friend Liril depareted on a mission to Cormyr.  I am sure her talents served well.  Ora has travelled into the north, looking for me, of all ironies.  Kama has returned to the monastery of the yellow rose, and for all I know was never seen in the north again.  Fenix remained in Waterdeep joining up with the guard.The remaining portion of my retainers, Cassy, Sypa, Tessigiran, and Fen set out for the town of Everlund. There were rumors that Gunnar's brother Keldaghan was doing good business out there and that there were orcs abroad in the land.  So after wintering in Waterdeep, they made the trek to Everlund setting out on 19 Ches 1372 Dalereckoning.</blockquote>
