[QUOTE="Ruin Explorer, post: 8305357, member: 18"] Given he's "Franchise Creative Director", I don't think there's any chance he's going to be writing books or really directly influencing products much. He's probably more involved with coordinating stuff like the D&D movies, games, etc. As for the returning setting, whilst people think the FR is likely, I actually suspect Exandria is slightly more likely. As has been pointed out, there's a new season of Critical Role coming (after the current side-venture), and that may well feature a new continent or the like - and if Matt Mercer has pre-written that area, WotC could be publishing it. That said it's close to 50/50 in my mind between FR and Exandria. Nentir Vale would be a classic setting rather than returning, and I think the odds of it making the cut with Planescape, Spelljammer, Birthright, Greyhawk (which WotC is inexplicably obsessed with), and so on in the mix is less than 1%.
