Cosmic Hunters (OOC)

[remetagross]

Ux most likely would not find out unless he brings the matter of Teru or the Book of Vile Darkness to Factol Skall of the Dustmen, which it doesn't seem like the party is willing to do. Also even if he did find out, there's still the matter of nabbing the Sauvais kid, which would involve assaulting the Sauvais Estate; either that or making a good guess who the next victim is, and lying in wait. Or some variation thereof, e.g. making a deal with the Sauvais heiress and her retainers.

Basically, from Ux's perspective, he made good on his deal with the Dustmen and they with him, the Sauvais heir vanishes overnight, and nothing more happens in this little diversion.

If you can come with a good reason why the party might find out what the Dustmen are doing behind the scenes, then negotiating with Skall is on the table. What Skall would ask for would've involved a fairly involved adventure through the Catacombs to recover the skull of a dead god. It's likely a good-aligned party would think twice before agreeing to such a request.

This is an entirely fair point, Ux Utanar being single-minded as he is, would most likely not probe the Dustmen further than than and go back to his finding of Sofie. He'll have a rather unpleasant surprise should he ever find out at a later stage.
