BOOM! The thugs and priestess fall to a combination of Kaye and Lissa's efforts. Combat over. Adventure over as you will then be able to escort the dwarves back to the ship without further incident. Will post wrap up post and chronicle sheets tonight. (Last fight would be tougher if you had not bluffed being so merchant like so well)

Kaye wipes the soot off his hands with his scarf, then approaches the owners of the inn.
"Ladies, I believe that scarf is his." Kaye asks the women for the scarf. "A man without a scarf is simply unprepared."
He then approaches the mute man. "I know you are of a fine moral standing. If you ever seek employment, contact me and I will gladly fine something for you. My business is growing rapidly, so there is plenty of opportunities for you."

Upon returning to the Abacus docked on the Glass River the PCs are able to sail upriver with all speed and put Razmiran behind them as quickly as possible. The remainder of the journey to Mendev is uneventful, save for the obvious hostility that now exists between Metella Raugar and Temel Passad.
Although the Pathfinders have performed a great service in rescuing the dwarven emissaries, they have also earned the Society a dangerous foe. Razmiran does not forget a slight, and several more priests converge on the Gray Revelation Inn to search for clues as to who was responsible for the daring rescue. The PCs efforts to remain secretive may have slowed their pursuers, but it has only delayed the inevitable reprisal.
Primary Success Condition
The PCs successfully liberate one or more of the captives in the secret cellar and transport them to Mendev, the mission is a success, and all PCs earn 1 Prestige Point.
Success
Secondary Success Condition
Sooner or later, the masked priests are likely to find out who was responsible for the attack on Razmiri soil, but the PCs had several opportunities to prevent the Razmiri from identifying and tracking them:
1)convincing the Sisters Grymble to accept the PCs’ cover story,
2)preventing Holy Ahendile from escaping to report to her superiors,
3)recovering the box of hair and blood from area F5
Meeting at least two of these criteria earns all PCs 1 additional Prestige Point.

Faction Notes
The party’s conduct during this scenario has a significant
influence on which merchant the Society employs
for securing future resources, as noted below. Either
Metella Raugar or Temel Passad might appear later in
Season 5 as a result of the PCs’ actions. Furthermore,
Amenopheus, the Sapphire Sage, is most interested in
any news of one of his long lost “siblings.” Information
leading to the Diamond Sage is very important to the
Osiron faction.
Grand Lodge Faction: If the PCs completed both the
primary and secondary success conditions, they earn the
Crisis Averted boon.
Success
Osirion Faction: If the PCs discovered that the Diamond Sage was last seen in Azir, they earn the News of the Diamond Trade boon.
Failure
(Hskoro if you did ask about the diamond sage at any point and I missed it please feel free to claim your 250gp item next time you are in Rahadoum)
Qadira Faction: There are three points at which the party
might favor the opinion of either Metella or Passad: deciding
whether to dock at Xer (Passad), developing a ruse for the
mission at the inn (Passad), and deciding whose mercantile
concern is superior (Passad). Give each PC the Expanding Trade
Network boon, and note on the Chronicle sheet which
merchant the PCs favored more often. If there is a tie, cross
the Expanding Trade Network boon off the Chronicle sheet.

Crisis averted is a grand lodge only 'boon' which so far has had no bearing on any other scenario.. It was the first scenario without faction missions and some of the early faction specific boons shoul be read more as achievements not boons. This is one of them
O'right, sir! Thank you for the game! :)
