So I ran night march of kalkamedes at home one day with a couple of friends. This is one of those games that makes you realize how bad players want to screw up a game.
They find the intelligent sword at the beginning of the adventure.  The monk thinks it is part of his faction mission and procedes to kidnap it.  When it talks too much, he wraps it up in cloth and puts it in a sheath.  
 Roleplay adverted 
So the adventure starts with him tripping over his own feet. After a lot of hinting, no one got that he took damage. Finally someone got the hint and decided to heal him. They heal him, and then decide to tie him up with some rope... I don't know
They walk up to the thorn bush.  He starts to walk into it.  Everyone grabs him immediate.  
Player, "How are we going to get around..."  "Lets walk around!"  
They go part way around and then let him go again.  He walks back into the thorn bush.  They all grab him.  Then they walk the rest of the way around...
Problem adverted!
He starts walking into a lake.  They all grab him.  
Player, "Okay lets walk around again!"
GM, "...No, you have to deal with the problem." 
Player, "Okay lets build a boat."
Player 2, "If he is building a boat, I'm building a yacht."
Problem Solved!
They walk up to the cliff.
Player 1, "Can we walk around?"
GM, "No."
Player 1, "Are you sure, I'm going to go walk down until I see a closer point."
GM, "You don't see any closer points down the way.  It looks to continue for quite a time."  
Player, "Alright I try the other way."
GM, "You don't see any closer points down the way.  It looks to continue for quite a time."  
Now for the actual solution.
Thoughts of simple climbing down and up were quickly dismissed.  Player 1 shoots a grappling hook across the cliff and onto the other side.  Everyone takes 10 to get across.  
Player, "I feel like we're forgetting something."
*kalkamedes hogtied on the other end of the cliff*
Player, "Okay lets just tug on him, he was an ex-paladin, he must be durable."  
So they pull him across hitting head first into the other side of the cliff. Then pull him up and heal him.  
 Brain damage attained! 
Rest to be posted another time.
