// In AA, the scroll was overpowered due to the starting artifacts; in this one, it's not as useful.
I'm busy today. As I understand it, options A (considering the tunnel) and B remain. It would be good to vote, otherwise I'll create a character in the evening and we'll jump into Margel.
So, I'm leaning towards A. This will avoid the murky rings, and it might unlock some additional information and options. There will also be books and equipment there, and it fits well with my cleric's oaths. And if we don't get any help and the civilian mission fails with the restoration of transport, then in the worst case, if the GM doesn't add any additional complications, we can at least move to Sizki so we don't have to wander for three days without sleep through the cannibals. Overall, that's where we were headed before entering the current location, and for now, we're just taking a break.
