Well I think any place where there is an inn, and more than a half dozen adventures, technically counts as a war zone, so no problem there. It will feel like home. As for Drakk and Varanghi, no such luck. I actually haven't seen anyone in more than a year. Shortly after the episode that got me the community service, I called in a favor from Mystery, and asked him to send me someplace where I could "get better". I've spent all this time in some forested pocket in the mists that I was unable to escape from, at least until a few months ago. For some reason, I was expelled from the pocket and was wandering the mists until I found this place. I've tried to get back to Astoria but have been unable to get there. Perhaps Mystery shut me out of there as a protective measure. Regardless, I am greatful for your hospitality, and will fully comply with the local authorities in regards to whatever remains of my punishment from my past crimes. See you soon.
