I am perfectly fine with that. I hope Velestarian will make us a really nasty villian to chase!  I think it would be fun if he set up some kind of situation where Doryn has to do something. Maybe with something going wrong and Hani being captured? Oh my mind is thinking very interesting scenes for this.<br/><br/>I can see maybe a rumor reaching the Arch Mage that the Baron has something else that needs to be removed from his power. Only it is just a trap to capture the thief who took the gem! Am I being too crazy with this? We may need to plot this out!<br/><br/>I loved your post CS. For the record, Quillian is a very compassionate and easy going guy. But he does take his duty seriously. I am open to whatever you might want him to send Doryn to do. Maybe another slave ring is moving in and they are targetting young women and taking them from the City. Several have gone missing and the Arch Mage thinks they are using those underground tunnels to move their newly captured slaves to some clandestine part of the Harbor and shipping them out. Quillian thinks that the leader of this slave ring is none other than a noble who is hiding it very well.<br/><br/>If you don't like those ideas, I am very open to something you want him to do.<br/><br/>As always, I am enjoying this very much. Vel, I am sure your next post will move us along nicely. Feel free to introduce ideas of your own. How you want the Baron to operate is up to you.
