[QUOTE="billd91, post: 2636276, member: 3400"] I think there may be a difference between going in and rescuing vs trying to arrange the NPC's release through negotiation. And if the political situation is delicate to begin with, I can understand the PC not wanting to do that either. The PCs might feel that their hands are relatively tied on this one considering the temple priests have more political weight to bring to bear on the government, the situation is very public, and they are the rebels being sought after in the first place. They either have to go in metaphorical guns blazing (potentially very risky for themselves and anyone else around them, including soldiers who might just be doing their jobs without being the ones involved in the corruption) or they have to back off and hope the peaceful method works. It might be better for them, from a role-playing perspective, to lay low for a while. After all, that NPC (former PC) did know the risks. [/QUOTE]
