I’m going to say I think the danger is to Vahid, as a result of the negotiations in marshedge, but I’m not sure that’s right and don’t have time now to go through the archives…

Impressively specific episode and NPC reference! :) I won't confirm or deny until Monday, but I gotta give you props -- right or wrong, you two know the deep cuts!

"As the caravan crosses the crater, every man and woman present feels the magic of the roads fade, leaving them alone and exposed on the wide open plain, and the mood grows dour and anxious. As the road stretches on, they see more destruction — a waystation destroyed, its mile-marker obelisk split by lightning, and more craters where paving stones have been uprooted, shattered, and scattered like chaff in the wind."

Gotta say, this is some great foreshadowing.
