=== Rugan and Olly ===
The two Zhentarim guards are trapped in a cave near the Risen Road, surrounded by Gnolls. Rugan and Olly's reaction varies depending on how the party encounters them. If the party enters the cave from the back entrance, then Rugan remarks that they are just as trapped as him and Olly and they all need to band together to fight. If the party enters from the front, Rugan tells Olly to stand down and leave the heroics to those who don't value their own skin. Regardless of how the party enters, if the duo are saved, they are both grateful for the assistance.

Aside from saving the pair, the party can also let them die. This can occur by Long Resting instead of confronting the Gnolls or by commanding the Gnoll Warlord [[Flind]] to kill the humans inside the cave. The option to commune with Flind's tadpole occurs within the first few rounds of combat. Flind can also be commanded to feast on herself or her pack, or to retreat.
 
* ''Search her mind for the source of the Voice.''
* [ILLITHID][WISDOM] ''Use the power within you to make her obey the Voice; to brave the flames and feast on the meat in the cave.'' (DC 2)
* ''Withdraw from her mind, and prepare to strike.''

After this successful check, Rugan relinquishes the chest to the party. If Rugan is not persuaded, the party can also steal the chest or lockpick it open. If the [[Iron Flask]] inside is taken, the chest is considered stolen.

If Rugan dies, Olly simply hands over the shipment, saying it's bad luck. He runs off afterwards.
