I think the first thing we have to do is decide who didn't make it out.
The good thing about Mac is, being imortal, he's simply trapped in a mountain tomb, unable to free himself. If he ever comes back to CR, we may be able to bring him back. But for now, we can't move the story along without someone to cary the third skystone, and Mac's just not around to have sword in hand.
I hope I didn't step out too far with this one, but I thought the Highlander was the obvious choice to succeed. And there had to be a thinning of the cast somehow. It was a last resort, but it moves the story along, and resets the group on a path that can actually proceed.

I have never yet spoken a word of English to any of my children. They can speak as much English as they like to others, but when they talk to me they have to talk in Gaelic." -Alexander Maclean Sinclair of Goshen (protector of Gaelic Culture) We need more Stan Rogers. jams

Lyra, I like that idea. It's pretty much what I had imagined myself. Originaly, the Hag was going to be the informant on the inside, but since Miri must be doing the mum thing,.... well, you happened along at just the right moment.
Liriel, I'm so incredibly stuck with this issue of the dark lady. Who is she? Is she literally Chaos incarnate? If so, she would act as the guiding force behind all of Grungahn's acts. He has his own ambitions, but she would be the inspiration behind it all. A dark muse, of sorts with destruction as her only goal. Heck, he may not even know he's being prodded along. The Drow goddess of Chaos. Lord knows. This is just my imagination getting away with me again.
Highlander, since MacErca popped up out of the blue, mere days after I killed off his character in the intrest of progressing the story, your actions may save my hide from its own impatience. Just remember, the dragon is under a spell, but we have had to slay one already that was under a spell. Do what you wish with that.

Ok. Here's where we are.
Grungahn has taken the castle. He's trying to stop the three with the stones. Kill them and take the stones for his own.
Lyra works for Grungahn, but is playing both sides.
Mac is trying to free himself from the mountain, while the Highlander is in there trying to get him out as well. The Highlander is the only one who knows he's not dead. (even though Labban and Rider should, since he's now imortal).
The rest of us were taken to the Faerie realm by Raawin to bring us back to the castle undetected. This has been bothering me, and Aaed, for a while. Trying to figure out how to get us back there. Raawin lives in the wood near HC, and knows what has become of King Paul and his court. He's come to tell us what's up and get us there quickly.
Liriel has some great characters, but they come from someone elses books. Not so easy to meld two main vilains and two completely separate story lines together, but we'll try. I know when I adapt all this, I'll have to change some things around here, because plagorism is uber bad.
Alright, Labban's hiding out is just holding things up. I'm on it.
