It is not just possible, it is quite definitely the single most important reason the campaign died. I fell in love with the concept behind the campaign and pre-decided how it was going to end. It was so beautiful and so very wrong.
The goal of this last session is to not fall into the same trap. I'll give them the end that they want, the way that they want it. They may not succeed, but they should be given a way to succeed and they should know what they have to do. This is why I'm planning on mapping out a couple of possible solutions, and remaining open for other ideas. The only thing I will hold on to, is that killing LDoaH will not be enough.
