Originally posted by Riftmaker: Illumina, kinda brings up the case of what do the Shadow Thieves want you to do? You don't have any contact or dealings with them after you get back, so why should you have to with any other group? I'm not saying it wouldn't be a bad idea, I'm just saying it's not necesarry to have a WAY more detailed plan than the other current ways to get to spellhold.

The only reason I'm complaining is because it's the Harpers. Look at how they get Xzar killed. That's how they operate. They had you find a poisoned man and lead you through destroying Xzar's lab, the Harper necklaces, the Spectral Harpists, the bird... To genuinely write a quest for them would be a headache, and I'm just making sure people know that.

Ok, as promised, work on Third Way has started. I'm going to keep following this discussion, so I;m bumping it in the hope that more ideas will evolve...

I think that the simple answer is that the Shadow Thieves want you to discover then deal with whomever is challenging them. After you defeat Bodhi the first time, you've basically done what the ST's want of you.

This is a fair question. And I think that it should be possible to have a high level way to describe what the Harpers may want of the PC when the PC has dealings with them. I don't think that it's necessary for the Harpers to betray the PC, although they may certainly be rather deceptive or obtuse during their dealings with the PC.
