Faliol rides off into the sunset and into limbo.
I think we'll keep his eventual fate uncertain for the moment. We'll role-play it if it becomes important, unless you really want to play it out.
We can use this private thread to discuss his eventual replacement, unless you'd rather handle it by e-mail.
To let you know what's going on in case you want to take over the NPC I've just introduced, they are about to meet an escaped slave of the Yaraza who has been tracking them and is out for vengeance. He is a barbarian who has served as a galley slave for several years. He is of Kalador and speaks of himself in the third person. He has a bow of great pull. He is a good storyteller, though he is rather grim at the moment.

I hate the fact that lurkers can spy on the hidden aspects of the game so easily. It is why I will never run a game here. Telling a player that is also a lurker to "Keep Out!" is like telling a klepto not to steal... If you don't mind, can we discuss things via email or Messenger?

E-mail me any time. If I can remember, I'll put up MSN Messenger when I sit down at the computer next time.
