Blind the Absolute: Difference between revisions

Successfully convince Brithvar that the party are not cultists and he offers them an opportunity for gold. Freeing [[Nere]], then taking him down and stealing his gold. The party would get a cut of the spoils. A successful Intimidation check with "Sounds good. I expect half the spoils." (DC 10) gains an extra payout. Brithvar says that the party needs to deal with the [[scrying eye]] first, lest more True Souls would come running when they realise what is happening. The party can also ask him for leads on getting Nere out, to which he refers them to the gnomes.

The party can wait for the scrying eye to patrol a more remote area to take it down.{{note|The scrying eye has a particular patrol it follows, moving from inside the cave-in room, down the stairs, and to the dock area. It can begin following the party if they act suspiciously (i.e. hiding in front of the eye), but it quickly returns to its route.}} There is a somewhat secluded spot near the stairs down from Brithvar that can work with a sneak attack. If the party is caught killing the scrying eye, a guard confronts the killer.{{note|Despite having given you the task of killing the scrying eye, if you kill it within sight range of Elder Brithwar and Stone Guard Kur, they will also accost the party for "murdering someone", forcing you to make a dialogue skill check to avoid the entire area becoming hostile.}} At this point, the guard can still be persuaded or deceived into standing down, otherwise the duergar will become hostile.
