The balance of the combat was interesting and challenging, though there was very little goal-driven social interaction or exploration. Also, the conclusion of the module seemed slightly contrived. It felt deceptive to run the final combat and conclude it with "the 2 npcs have vanished" or "The enemies took undeclared actions to steal the macguffin, none of you noticed."

It makes sense as a setup for the final part of the trilogy, but it would be nice if there were more well-explained (or contrived) ways that the enemies were able to abscond with the item.

All in all, a fun module with a slightly contrived conclusion. The twist in the first combat was definitely unexpected by the party and was an exciting challenge for even the most combat-built characters. The combats definitely caused the module to run closer to 4 hours, as it is tier 3 and especially considering the high number of combatants in the final combat.

Combat heavy module with challenging encounters, especially given the two hour time frame. I had trouble managing the 10 monsters in the last encounter with the variety of things they can do. Monsters have a lot of hp for an average party to chew through, but high AC tank PCs are basically untouchable. In the series, I think it helps move the story forward, but as a standalone, it loses a lot of context. Would have preferred a guild adept-like hardcover format for a storyline like this.
