Devaguea told Allison not loosing the lead was the priority, they had time at least for a while. As long as she kept the option open for more work, he wasn't concerned about how long she took.<br/><br/>Jubiliost got his payment, and was seen out before the advisors began putting down bets on how long and in what condition the gnome would return in.<br/><br/>Devaguea accepted most of the requests, and began hunting for replacement combat team members and advisors. He officially accepted Zack and Yorgan's requests to retire, Zach to take over leading the new temple to Abadar, and Yorgan because he was getting too old for shit. Both would still do their duties, at least until a replacement was found. Allison was told that she would have one last mission to go on, to help clear Candlemere island of the will-o-wisp infestation, but that wasn't happening until no earlier than the spring. Akiros and Talia were granted their requests to not sally unless absolutely necessary, as their jobs were now more than full time. Jhod Kavken was also looking to get out, but was willing to wait until someone could be found to replace him. Damien, however, had been training Sena to replace him, and was ready to step down for the young(-ish) Viera woman. Tina was also needing a replacement, she was too kind and soft for her to truly preform the job.<br/><br/>But first and most important, he needed to get his combat linchpin up to speed.
