Because particular NPC's were integral to the PLOT.  Not integral to the party, or even important to the party necessarily, but, because the script required certain individuals to be in certain places at certain times, there was very little the players could do to change that story.Granted, thinking about it now, I think we actually gave up around DL7. Whichever the one was with the ice boats.  My players just got so fed up with being led around by the nose that they just revolted.  And, to be fair, I can't blame them.So, I believe we have reached what is colloquially known as an imp arse.  I'm not going to convince you that you are wrong and there's nothing you can say that's really going to change my mind on this.  We'll leave it up to different experiences and call it a day shall we?  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
