There's a difference between allowing downtime and actually enabling downtime. It would be meta gaming for the players to assume that their enemies will just sit around and wait if they don't hunt them down ASAP. It is in the nature of published adventures that they present the opposition as an immediate threat, since the author has no idea of who the PC's will be and what their motivations are, so you need to come up with a hook that almost everyone has a good reason to follow.</blockquote>
