Do you have any hope that you can reach someone of their kind who can negotiate with them or at least tell us of their involvement in all of this ?
Can I assume no answer to this line of questions means there is no hope?

"We have communicated with some of them.  They are unwilling to tell us anything, but to ensure us that Balinhost is safe."

"There is a struggle within the fey right now, we have not been able to find the lines that separate the sides, but it is not the traditional seelie vs unseelie."

Balinhost is not safe. Eventually the enemies of Tyrogatore and Stasis will come to Balinhost for their followers and there will be blood. I suspect the fey are pawns in this but those that manipulate them will not be satisfied until the faiths of Tyrogatore and Stasis are destroyed; so whatever bargain the fey have struck can only be settled with violence as the coin. If you do not wish to see the fey suffer you should work to dissuade them after we leave.

Hey.. um.. I know I'm late to the party, and.. well... Drunnbar knows i'm always up for a constitution testing war, I mean heck, we've been defending ourselves against the underhanded brothers of blast mountain since the dawn of time.  I mean when you have all the magic in the world you don't mind fighting every day, and running away to recharge and coming back the next day. ... aggggrh... Err.. anyway, What I mean is why would these gods array themselves against Tygorgator and Stasis.  Why would they want to destroy the faith?  Have I missed something?  Something tells me if you wanted to gain power, there are other faiths that might be a tad easier to knock off.   Why pick to fight against two of the better martial faiths?.. I'm not a strategist, but something else is going on.

Firfin says, "I know it is strange for Everentual to ally with the others, so he must have a reason.  I know that he has never liked Stasis because of his morality and ethics and because of his home in the upper planes.  As for Tyrogatore, their falling out over Hammel centuries ago has never healed.  Those could be reason enough to ally with other to see the religions fall."

After some thought, "It surprises me that Compture is not involved in this. Such a huge change would sort it well."

We know so little of the plot. There is no reason to think they are equal partners. Everventual could be manipulating the others, particularly the cults, in the hope that the struggle will leave them weak and vulnerable themselves. Or it could be that the Counsil powers and the cult powers are not in league but have the same goals. It matters not for we are but mortals and the plans of the powers are beyond us. All we can do is thwart their servants with sword and fist.

Who hammel?  Tell Lennie story.

"In the time of mortal Stasis, but before he came to the world, there was a hero named Hammel the Good.  A Nipit of great virtue, honor, and valor.  He wandered the world seeking out those in need.  He was a knight paladin and friend to all....

In the end he was betrayed by Stasis son, Gideon.  Hammel was taken to Hertoplowis where he was put on trial and banished from the world."

Another issue to consider: did you ever come to a resolution about whether or not to try and have the cleric of Stasis, Robert, raised?
Since his faith prohibits reincarnations, it is not in my power to restore Robert's life. It is therefore up to his clergy to decide. We know who is coordinating the attacks in this area, so I see no need to try to raise Robert just to find out who attacked him.

Perhaps Roland's fey experts can examine Robert's remains and determine if his death was caused by one of those creatures .

With no difficulty, Rafael and Linda conclude that a redcap ate Robert.

Was the creature Keldan fought a redcap?  The one with the scythe?

Yes,  I would have beaten it but it ran before I could.  I could a couple good hits on it but it was resistant.

Is there someplace in Balinhost where we can purchase Leonard's gear?
