Hello All,
I'm preparing to run Adventure 5 of Zeitgeist for my group, after a long delay since running adventure 4.
One thing that I'm concerned about is I expect my party will be likely to defeat Kell and recover what they need to traverse the canal route into the bleak gate. But I also know my party would absolutely love the scenes at the peace summit, and I'm eager to make sure they get to see them. But I worry that if they recover the route to enter the canal, they'll feel pressured to do that before the start of the peace summit (after all, that's what the king asks them to do!), and they won't get to see those scenes since, of course, if they go early and wake the Colossus early, the summit simply doesn't happen.
Is there a good solution to get them to go after the summit that doesn't feel like they failed their task (since taking the king's portal is presented as failure)?
