Thanks for moving us forward... and come on Hunter, save us!<br/><br/>As for poor Aleria... to be fair, the options presented her did specify the outsider would "help", although admittedly that help might not be without cost, nor perhaps will she necessarily be in the mental state to appreciate that help.  What it helps her with, of course, might depend on what she was hoping for help with.  Perhaps those dark tentacles would deposit her outside the Spire after enjoying her in their own special way?  The same could be true for the imps.... I'd suggest ways they might help with the quest against Hagan, but I doubt that's really on Aleria's mind.  :-)  Though I suppose the summoned thing(s) might help with the quest incidentally - taking a chunk out of the Spire or Hagan's army, for instance - but not help Aleria at all....<br/><br/>Just spouting out some possibilities, generally terrible ones!
