Bab 2482: Faction Formed  

Two weeks after the group's return to Armhands, all fourteen newcomers had more or less adjusted to their new surroundings after the long journey from The Enchanted Realm.

In particular, Minos' eight companions were aware of his plans for dealing with the enemies within the guild and their impending departure for the Magma Barrens.

In two weeks, they would depart for the area, and they would be gone for a few months, traveling back and forth from that fiery hell to deal with any assassins who might follow them.

Aware of this, the group had been working to prepare for this temporary separation, with Minos setting up his new faction and bringing over some of his old contacts within the guild.
