Error in History Of Ashes regarding scrying (SPOILERS)

Players shouldn't read this post.

Even so I'm going to be vague in my description of the issues. :)

Spoiler:
I'm setting up an encounter that includes a certain cleric who supposedly does a lot of scrying. My problem is that the first time the PCs meet this individual and his bodyguard the text has him casting scry to follow the PCs around. Unfortunately, someone forgot to tell this cleric that the casting time on that spell is one hour!

So two questions: how did you arrange for the cleric to be able to monitor the PCs progress? And if he didn't, what actions did he take instead?

Are,

The adventure gives an alternative method which you can use; another option (but pretty unlikely to actually work) would be to use UMD to activate a scroll of arcane eye.

Turns out my group actually flushed him out so it wasn't a problem. But yeah, I tried thinking of other solutions. Your UMD was the best I could come up with. I could also have given him one level in a class that gets a familiar or animal companion but that seemed like more work than should be required.

I was quite surprised at how that encounter went. But it's still ongoing so I'll wait until it's well past before I comment on it again. I know at least one of my players skims these forums. :)
