ok so, i am waaay off the beaten path. My party wanted to come back to port nyanzaru at level 5, and i made this whole fucking thing with a zombie apocalypse in the city, a flaming fist occupation, and a coven of hags, among other things. They have salida with them now, as well as a goblin artificer i made up.

​

I'm working on adapting "reach for the stars" from "keys from the golden vault", substituting in Wakanga for Markos Delphi. In the module, Markos is trying to summon Krokulmar, but I'd like to substitute Wakanga attempting to summon Dendar or get the attention of acererak. I figure there's a macguffin there either way.

​

I can't decide. I don't want to seed ace too much too soon, because they've only just started to hear about him a little, and still think ras nsi is the big bad. However, I also want Salida to pull a betrayal on them later, when the party helps her and fenthaza defeat ras nsi, allowing fenthaza to take the leadership role, allowing her to try to summon dendar, using aforementioned macguffin. I'm thinking this is a post-tomb thing, maybe? I also can't think what an ace-related macguffin might be.

​

I know this is both long and open-ended. Looking for input! Thank you.
