== Involvement ==
== Involvement ==
=== Act One ===
If {{CharLink|Aradin Beno}} and his crew leave the Emerald Grove, Meli can be found in the {{Coords|87|71|Tiefling Hideout}}, practicing pickpocketing on a dummy.


=== Act 1 ===
==== Pickpocketing Barth ====
If {{CharLink|Aradin Beno}} and his crew leave [[Emerald Grove]], Meli can be found in the {{Coords|87|71|Tiefling Hideout}}, practicing pickpocketing on a dummy.
{{Main|Return the Locket}}
 
If Aradin's crew stays for a drink, Meli spawns at {{Coords|174|544|The Hollow}} pretending to search an open crate while the crew heads to a nearby table. The party can watch Meli steal a {{SmRarityItem|Brass Locket}} from {{CharLink|Barth|Barth's}} pocket and run up the ladder where Barth catches him. Initiating conversation with either one allows the choice to intervene and protect Meli, convince him to return the locket, or let Barth do what he wants.
If Aradin's crew stays for a drink, Meli will spawn at {{Coords|174|544|The Hollow}} pretending to look at things in an open crate while the crew heads to a nearby table. The party can watch Meli steal a {{SmRarityItem|Brass Locket}} from {{CharLink|Barth|Barth's}} pocket and run up the ladder where Barth will catch him. Initiating conversation with either one will allow the choice to intervene and protect Meli, convince him to return the locket, or let Barth do what he wants.
 
There are three options:
 
* Protecting Meli, "Don't lay a finger on that child." ({{Ability Check|Persuasion|10}} or {{Ability Check|Intimidation|10}}) and he will run off with the locket.
 
* Convincing Meli to return the locket ({{Ability Check|Persuasion|5}} or {{Ability Check|Intimidation|15}}) and he might be persuaded to reveal that he stole the locket because it reminded him of his mother's.  


* Letting Barth strike Meli, the locket will fall out of his pocket, and the nearby guard {{CharLink|Ikaron}} will come over to investigate the disturbance.
There are four options:


After the encounter, Meli will run to the Tiefling Hideout where he can be found near the practice dummy and Barth will return to his crew at the table below in The Hollow. If the party speaks with Barth afterward, he may reveal that the locket was given to him by his mother while she was on her deathbed. If the party allows Meli to take the locket, it can later be recovered from the [[Tiefling Hideout]] and returned to Barth. He will then give backstory about the locket and its importance to him.
* Protecting Meli, "Don't lay a finger on that child." ({{Ability Check|Persuasion|10}} or {{Ability Check|Intimidation|10}}) and he runs off with the locket.
* Convincing Meli to return the locket ({{Ability Check|Persuasion|5}} or {{Ability Check|Intimidation|15}}) and he might be persuaded to reveal that he stole the locket because it reminded him of his mother's.
* Letting Barth strike Meli, the locket falls out of his pocket, and the nearby guard {{CharLink|Ikaron}} comes over to investigate the disturbance.
* If already having pickpocketed the locket from Meli, it is possible to return it to Barth. ''He's good, but I'm better.'' This impresses Meli and placates Barth.


=== Act 2 ===
After the encounter, Meli runs to the Tiefling Hideout where he can be found near the practice dummy and Barth returns to his crew at the table in The Hollow. If speaking with Barth afterward, he may reveal that the locket was given to him by his mother while she was on her deathbed. If allowing Meli to take the locket, it can be recovered from the Tiefling Hideout and returned to Barth. He can be persuaded to tell a backstory about the locket and its importance to him.
If the party convinced {{CharLink|Rolan}} to stay and protect the tieflings, Meli will survive till [[Act 2]] and can be found in the [[Last Light Inn]]. He and the other children will be attempting to cheer up a drunken Rolan after his siblings {{CharLink|Lia}} and {{CharLink|Cal}} were kidnapped by cultists of the Absolute.  


If Isobel is still alive after [[Resolve the Abduction]], then he and the other children will huddle together and worry over Mol's safety now that she's been kidnapped by the [[Cult of the Absolute]]. The party can offer to look for Mol themselves and start the quest [[Find Mol]]. If Isobel dies during that quest, then the entire Last Light Inn will fall to the Shadow Curse and Meli will die.
