The group has accomplished a great success in destroying the entire 1st level of the Monastery of Souls!
Have you really?
As of now there is rubble, stone, and much more in the destruction of the grounds. The level below supposedly remains unharmed, and I'd gather Desicus has heard this destruction! What befalls the group next week with the wrath of Desicus in what you've done?
Are all the lives within the forested area lost? Have you killed innocent elven lives in this action? More than likely as the entire 1st level of the Monastery of Souls has collapsed and would more than likely mean the death of all within!
DESICUS LAUGHS AT YOUR ACTIONS!
Kylor speaks: The death of the elves that lived here is truly a disheartening and sad thing. We must also remember that they are Gozreh worshippers and followers of nature; as such they may see death, even in such unfortunate situation as part of the natural cycle of life. We cannot just go around raising people to ease our feelings of guilt. Remember our actions was done in the hope of getting Desicus attention... to draw him out to fight us. I feel if we did get his attention, we have three options moving forward. 1) We fight him. The problem i have is that I dont want to see the SeaDogs taken out because we are distracted and not unified in our resolve. (people wants to save and raise the elves hurt; hearts not invested in the battle) We also have no real plan of attack, other then draw him out away from the golems and use our items to protect us briefly from Desicus
2) We walk away. Because the group feels that there is no profit in this fight or that Desicus is not beatable due to him outsmarting and overpowering the group. We leave this to be taken challenge to be taken on by other better and more powerful adventuring groups.
This last option is really outside of the box -
3) Use Desicus through negotiation and bartering (similar way we are having a positive influence on Captain Bluebeard) --- I am proposing that we work with him for several reasons. a) we can learn more about Desicus and his plans (thus how to stop him) b) we can direct him assist us to take out evil indviduals or groups (ie hubba bubba) c) we can influence Desicus more perhaps slowly redeeming him.
( Taladel seemed to be reaching him somewhat )
d) this ensures the survival of the SeaDogs
Again this is just what I am seeing and proposing that we consider. Would love to hear what you all have to say.
