Heh, you're right. I didn't think about that. Although, from an RP perspective, it would be a bit strange. He would leave, put on a cloak, and come back. Besides, we would then have to give up the resurrection scroll. I can fix it if others think this option is better.

No. If you had given money to someone in advance and they bought you a cloak and brought it... then it would be okay. But otherwise, the proud Heckelites would say something like, "Well, if you don't want to take the quest, then get out of here and don't waste our time," and that's it.
