Not.

Upon entering certain areas in the game, an NPC recruit will drop. Thinking I was oh so smart, I cast a portal within the Umpani base, teleported back to Arnika and re-recruited Myles, then teleported into the base. Myles wasn't fooled, and didn't particularly appreciate my plan.

Thanks all for your comments on my last post - I've updated the maps and walkthrough on my site up to the swamp.
