Hello, me again
I understand about the copyright issue and out-of-printness, and mainly
misphrased my questions. Thanks to those who responded.
Here are my specific questions about the Cradle:
- Why is the Cradle full of magical treasure?
- Why does it have defenses?
- Where did it come from?
- Why didn't upstream folks stop it?
- What are the exact conditions when it goes downstream? What time of
year and time of day does the scenario begin? Do folks on the shore
notice the cradle?
- Who participates in intercepting the cradle or in aiding its
downstream journey?
- What are the results of this trip in Prax: Is it big news for
weeks? What is the political fallout? (This is especially important).
Some more questions:
- It is Storm Season 1622. Who is in control of 1) Esrolia, 2) Karse,
3) Heortland. I can't piece it all together.
- When does Tatius' failed military move take place (G:CotHW)?
- When does Sor Eel get replaced, and why?
- The source of the Zola Fel is the Leaping Place Falls. A small
congregation remains there, and the Temple Barge travels to the Falls for
Sacred Time. My PC's and I turned a blind eye to this, but I decided to
pinpoint the location. It appears on a map in the Troll Pack. My eyes
just about bugged out: The Falls are deep in troll territory and in a
forest that has an elf population. Is there anything printed about
the relationship between the Zola Fel folks, the trolls and the elves
along the route? I find it difficult to believe that the relatively
combat light ZF's would have an easy time in troll territory, year after
year, without a formal arrangement.
- Finally, one of the SiP scenarios has the PC's chopping down trees in
the Desolation Hills, presumably close to the river. Since the scenario
does not mention elf interference (true? I don't have it in front of me),
can one presume that the author's intent was
a) the trees in question are not in elf territory, or
b) the elves don't mind _too_ much if some trees get cut?
Thanks,

PS: I tried to interest my players in a western campaign, set in
Pithdaros, so I could make some productive use of material fleshing that
place out (and to share here), but they all voted against playing in
Seshnela. Have others had the same experience?
PPS: My PC's are returning home from a trip
Corflu-Melib-[Gimmick]-Goan-Jrustela-
[Part of the Reckless Run]-Notchet-Corflu. Thanks for all the Vadeli info.
Does this trip count as a "Circumnavigation Quest" or is that riding
around the outside of the world. If it is the Quest, what should have
happened? What are the effects?
