[QUOTE="Nagol, post: 6113688, member: 23935"] No, the goal is still A; it's just the group hasn't made it all the way to the snatch part yet. If your goal is snatch something from the 'city on the plains' and you sail 1,000 miles across the sea to get to the right continent, there can be be additional journey required to reach the plains that contain said city. In fact, Plane Shift explicitly informs the group that the additional journey will be somewhere between 5 and 500 miles long with more than a 50% chance that the journey will be at least 250 miles long. The group also knows that it won't necessarily know which direction to head upon arrival without further investigation. So if the group has any expectation that the journey will be over once the spell is complete, it is a failure of comprehension in the group more than a miscommunication. If the group or a member of the group says "We avoid all encounters no matter what they are because we're riding something big, visible, and highly unnatural that moves a bit more than three times our natural speed along the ground" then there may be more misapprehension at work.
