			'''Re - (Andrew):''' Sure, entirely understood. To be fair, though, when Zal's unlikely to start getting the benefit of the doubt until he earns it. As long as he continues putting himself and others at risk through his own dangerous cocktail of arrogance, ignorance and short-sightedness, we'd be fools not to be wary of him, especially in cases such as this one. Durgaz won't come to any conclusions one way or another about the elf's inability to bring him something. Maybe Zal hid stuff on purpose, maybe not -- and if he did, who could blame him, as Durgaz does the same thing. Whether he did or not isn't the issue; what he did while he was in the Spire is the issue. And if there's nothing dangerous there either, then no problem.

			'''Re - (Andrew):''' OK, Adam has clarified that there are actually three Invisibility to Fell charms in existence, one of which he got in the Spire. He says he kept that one, and handed off the one he already had to someone else before the fight. Eranon had one in the Spire, because he was with Zal when they went down into the Spire in the first place. So Zal either gave his (the one that knows what he was up to) to Durgaz, or he gave it to Kyuad. Durgaz was the guy we'd ''usually'' been equipping with one, but Bill's right -- Kyuad was planning on using that scythe in the fight, and I doubt he would have been in too much of a hurry to do that if he hadn't had one. But who knows, maybe Eranon decided he didn't need his and gave it up to someone else.

			REGARDLESS: The important thing is that the charm Durgaz needs is either already in his possession or belongs to Kyuad or Eranon, either of whom would apparently have no problem letting him see it if he asked. In addition, Durgaz already has something else that would work just as well, so he could have done what he needed to do with either item.

			My memory on the charm situation is fuzzy. I definitely remember being pretty excited to use the scythe against the fell ogres during the battle with Vrolk, and I can't imagine Kyuad being willing to stand in front of an ogre without one of those charms. I'm pretty sure Kyuad still has it, too, and it's entirely possible that it's the charm that Zal had (but it might have been the one the legate had instead).

			Regardless, Kyuad would offer it to Durgaz, at least so Durgaz can find out if Zal had it.

 I can, however, think of one thing he had on him at the time that any of us should have easy access to. When Zal and Eranon went downstairs on their scouting mission, they each took one of the Invisibility to Fell charms. Zal would have had his the whole time. The question is: Who had Zal's charm during the final battle with Vrolk? I think Eranon had one of them; if we were expecting to encounter Fell, it's entirely possible that Durgaz had the other, since we had in the past been giving him one in order to benefit from the combat bonuses. But I genuinely don't remember.
 The followup question is: If Durgaz didn't have it, who did? If Kyuad had it, would Kyuad give it to Durgaz if he asked? If Zal had it the whole time, would Kyuad be willing to get it from him, and then deliver it to Durgaz, if Durgaz asked?
-So, first of all, if anyone remembers the whereabouts of both the Invisibility to Fell charms _after_ Zal rejoined the group, that would help a lot. If nobody remembers anything specific, we'll assume that Zal kept it. If that's the case, and Kyuad would be willing to help Durgaz get a hold of that charm (and Durgaz would be entirely open about his reasons for doing so), here's what I propose: Kevin could just print out whatever information Durgaz would glean from Seer Sighting the thing, and have it handy before game. Bill could ask Adam, in character, to let him see the charm. Assuming Adam gives it to him, and assuming Kyuad agreed to help Durgaz, we could then assume that Kyuad gave the charm to Durgaz, Durgaz examined it, and Kevin could surreptitiously slip me the printout.

This last option could get a little tricky, since we have about 48 hours until game and this could easily get tied up in failures to respond promptly if we tried to back-and-forth the whole thing. Additionally, Adam is bound to get suspicious if we make a whole bluebook out of Kyuad asking him "Hey, can I see that charm?" Assuming he even has it, I honestly can't imagine there would be any reason why Zal _wouldn't_ let Kyuad see the charm if he asked, but going ahead and assuming that he'd give it up would probably not be fair to Adam.

So, first of all, if anyone remembers the whereabouts of both the Invisibility to Fell charms _after_ Zal rejoined the group, that would help a lot.
