Thanks for the input Rakshaka. Those are two excellent options for consideration. I'll likely go with a variation on the second. The pcs are likely headed to the lair of the salamanders where I'll conveniently place Zayifid. His presence will be explained, if questioned, by a need to confer with one of Jhavul's original though lesser generals, Thratnias. Hopefully, with some timely advice from Vardishal via the Moldspeaker, the pcs will once again hold the Scroll of Kakishon. I hope I can salvage this. Legacy of Fire has been the best adventure path since Age of Worms!
