And for where Baha is going. He going in the direction of plot advancement! I'm pretty sure we're outside and there is a Familiar to track down. Plus later on I can try a Detect Magic (and maybe identify) on the monolith
Mao has an appointment with Aryk's clone, due as soon as Baha confesses or is finishing being dealt with.
Then there are many ways to go about it for the monolith and the AA has other Espers on the list to deal with in the background.
She also already arranged for the possibility to reanimate Anna for questioning with Elle.
Sending it back on Ragol is probably out of the question until they get more information on the situation. She could drop it back where it was with the thought they can always fetch it back later if needed though with the high possibility of a spy among them it is possible the monolith would be taken off by their enemies if she does.
Plot advancement was also the reason I had us fetch the monolith instead of wandering off to some spa resort.
Plot advancement is ready to go as soon as Baha is done with the AA betrayal nonsense. Or whatever Maia decides.
assuming Anomander wants to do more than provoke PvP out of people.
Says the betrayer. If you wanted to start trouble between PCs without them knowing you should have been more subtle about it. Of course it would have been a lot simpler to actually not do things that would lead to PC confrontations.
I've prepared the plot advancement. So yes, I want to do all those other stuff I've got going. Too bad there's a traitor delaying things with constant evasiveness and stubbornly insists on being a problem.
