Feng reaches deep within his shield of faith and in a few minutes is able to spare Erevan and Ostis from the realm of the dead. The monks, exhausted but yet invigorated, clasp you on the back and thank you profusely for your aid in their time of dire need.
Quinlapp is the first to greet you at the bottom of the tower. His old eyes are weepy and he gets choked up more than once as he thanks you for your help.
"You have...the never-ending gratitude of Candlekeep. Should you ever return, you will be welcomed with no price for entry!
"In fact, you are welcome to stay with us as long as you wish, with the blessing of Oghma the wise."
You heal up and recuperate in the next couple of days. You hear about other acts of bravery among the monks and adventurers who just so happened to be within the walls when the servants of Asmodeus made their move. They repelled Hobgoblins and Goblins from the walls, scuttled canoes along the coastline, and sacrificed their lives to protect monks who were raising the Great Shield. Their names, as well as those of Amari and Francis, will be chronicled and remembered forever.
A few days after defeating the acolytes and chosen of Asmodeus, Erevan, Ostis, and Tommy are ready to depart the great library of Candlekeep. Stronger and maybe a little bit wiser...well, maybe not Ostis...the trio are walked to the gate by First Reader Quinlapp.
"It certainly is a nice day for traveling," Quinlapp says. "Headed toward Baldur's Gate, yes? So, have you thought about what I told you?" Each of you think back to when Quinlapp visited you while you were healing from your wounds; to the things he told you and directions he gave:
Erevan:
Ostis:
Tommy:
The Dwarven trio of Bearghus, Feng, and Sindri had left the day before...on a ship bound for the Moonshae Isles. Your heads are still fuzzy from the amount of ale you drank two nights ago in celebration of their departure. You wished them well, and will certainly miss them. After all, Erevan and Tommy owe their lives to Feng.

Happy New Year fellers! This is the first "official" group post for the game...and even though it only focuses on three of you, I will get the rest involved very soon. For now, only Mike, Octavio & Will should post in this thread.
