Having read the other reviews to this module, it seems like the scenario was meant to be a combat scenario, but was not. This scenario seemed more based on survival and role play than anything else.

The group I ran were focused more on the role play aspects and survival than the fighting.

While the end fight was completely disappointing, the group enjoyed the sharing of their "Tale" far more than most things they have done, and were riveted by the kellids tale in return. After the scenario "ended" they role play the induction ceremony and had a blast. This was a very memorable scenario for them. I think the success of this module would depend on GM preparation and participation.

I ran this at our PFS Weekly and was ambivalent about it at best after reading it in preperation. I think that too much was tried to be crammed into too little.

1. Political intrigues should be intriguing. This really was not that engageing. Perhaps if your Andoran based with your character it could be.

2. The ramifications for the different out comes are way to over the top. They simply do not make sense, or are believable.

3. You learn of the political intrigue, solve it, and go back home within the course of a day. There is no real mystery, no red herring. The first fight gives you all of the information, and because of the actions of "hier" it is almost impossible not to get that information.

4. The ending devolves into confusion. My players became completely lost as to what was going on.

5. What is the point of the wolf attack on the farmer? It is interesting adding some life to the background by creating a large subplot in the background, but it comes out of the blue.

6. Typos and missing words everywhere.

This scenario needed to be a two parter, or more like Shades of Ice Part 1 and be a multiple day scenario.
