Hey guys,
my group is currently playing as an all-elves party and they are currently residing in a small elven forest village at the southernmost tip of High Forest (Sword Coast, FR). So far, they were baisically training. They got a lot of gear, some levels and some experience as players. But they are really prone to finding Cult of the Dragon. (Cult has killed their parents decades ago)
Now I'm playing these NPC elves as rather protective (VERY protective of their "little ones" (elves up to 100 yrs of age)) and isolationist. They are very well off(lots of gear and low level magical items), their groups of rangers are regualrly patrolling their parts of the forest, if something nastier shows up there, they include elven druids to "nuke" the enemy. They also have "connections" to the outside world.
Desire of the PCs to find the Cult and harm it, is still great. I'm wondering, how would responsible, protective elven elders approach desires of these "kids"? Elves are isolationist, but they do have "intelligence service" in the forest outside of it. Also, they are well connected to other elven settlements in High Forest.
Elven kids (these "kids" are about 40 years of age, lvl 4, well geared out) want to seek out Cult of the Dragon in the "big, bad world, full of stupid, filthy humans and evil orcs, goblins and much nastier things".
What would be a proper approach for village elders, who understand PCs desire (elders know, PCs may just run out into the world, if they are held back for too long) to help and support and especially guard this kin of theirs with (according to centuries old-elves) not enough skills and knowledge, who really really want to find and destroy murderers of their parents?
thanks
