I'm pretty sure the group will split apart at some point. But the story should bring everyone back together eventually. After the first little bit, there will be choices on where to go, so invariably you guys can split apart.<br/><br/>Actually I've already written three cities that each person would want to go to. So you guys could stick together and visit each one, or split up. However, if you split up, there may be some challenges that are impossible alone; so you'll have to go and find each other anyway :P
