Notes on Theophania Groundswallow

• Step 1) Clear out the undead and other nasties in Agonir’s cavern to prevent other things from attacking the beleaguered Mistverge, and so that that the archaeologists can have access to the Dwarven ruins without risking their lives if they want it.
• Step 2) Spends a year or two getting Mistverge back on its feet agriculturally. Maybe negotiating some spaces in and around the city as nature sanctuaries in exchange for some plant growth spells on some of the bigger farms with the druid Elidar so that those farms will have double produce and reduce the shortages in the city in the short term.
• Step 3) She might revisit the plan to identify The Voice once everyone is properly fed again, but after several months of experiments, the results are inconclusive.
• Step 4) Go on a quest to find the Dwoids and tell them about the dwarves who survived. Rusty definitely comes along for this one. How does it go?
  
• Step 5) Spend some time sharing knowledge with Dwarven artificers to improve her mechanical skills and maybe teach some of her alchemy knowledge.
• Lastly) She starts her own shop of magic items called Groundswallow Alchemical Gear. To get the needed supplies for her items, she develops a network of traveling merchants (Groundswallow Tinkers and Traders among others), wizards (Sharai and Tina and the wizard school in Arrandale), the investments and contacts of Lord McNabb (if he’s interested), and maybe even a certain “businessman” named Jimmy or his friends for certain alchemical reagents depending on how the thing with The Voice goes. Tina is around for everything, and eventually one day Tiff suddenly realizes they are basically married, so they do. (Tina, "Oh, you want to make it official?")
  

Notes on Raiàn

• Raiàn goes home because her cousin Sunny dies and becomes the ruler of her people.
• Something fell out of the sky and landed on Sunny's head, and it looks a little mechanically and familiar when Raiàn gets home. Raiàn makes sure the item is destroyed in "revenge".
  
• They rule benevolently.
  

Notes on Lyrielle

• Lyrielle goes back home and reports on everything she's learned in Mistverge.
  
• She becomes an Advisor to the elven military, with emphasis on defense.
• She loves to travel, so she still find lots of excuses to go on adventures, and does help look for the dwoids.
  

Notes on Osiris

• Osiris does some research in Agonir's lair about the soul stuff he was doing. She finds some of the crystals that didn't have souls in them, and eventually she figures out how to make a one of the soul gems, so she does, but she just keeps it in a box on her person at all times.
  
• She also stays in touch with Rusty and anytime he learns something new about himself, and she adds it to her book about him.
• Osiris is Head priestess of the Rites and spends the next hundred years or however long it takes Hallowing the whole city so that it will forever (or at least a really long time) be a bastion against the undead. She also Hallows the dwarven ruins directly below Mistverge such that people cannot teleport directly to it.
  
• Osiris works out a deal where Magnus gets to go to the Wizard school in Arrandale with Prof Tina as his sponsor.
• She also occasionally takes a sabbatical to visit the dwarves.
• She also eventually takes care of the Blackwood servants by killing the undead bodies and then Resurrecting them back into their bodies, which only works because Agonir's hoard is eliminated.
  
• At least one time she casts Astral Projections so that she and Tiff can visit Thessalie.
  

Notes on Rusty

• He helps Tiff with all her projects, dragon lair clean-up, Dwoid hunting, Dwarf learning, etc.
  
• He does let Tiff do some "vivisection" on him to learn about his construction and creation, and she is very carefully, and he takes no damage in the process. 
• Not very many memories come back from before he shut down for 1,000 years.
• Rusty also asks Tiff "Is there a way to get this to stop bleeding" of the Butcher's Bib, and the answer is no. It bleeds or it's useless.     

Notes on Jinora

• She collects the empty soulgem Agonir had embedded in his chest and some of his humanoid form's hair. Then she interviews a bunch of people and takes a bunch of notes and is very intense about the whole process.
• They finally get to see her dragon form, and she is mostly blue, but she also had a couple of black stripes on her chest.

Notes on Magnus

• He takes Osiris up on the offer to study in Arrandale, and spends some time there, and is not very good at all. With his new training, his experiments are less impressive as Agonir's hoard isn't providing a source
  
• He and Callie eventually get married. 
• Sometimes Tiff and Tina are called in to clean up a bit of a mess, and everyone does their best to
  

Notes on Tina

• She moves to Mistverge and helps rebuild.
  
• She and Tiff adventure together, and Tina helps with Tiff's magical inventions.
  

Notes on the Dwarves

• They are tight-lipped on their plans, but an impression is gathered that they are expanding somehow. Maybe underground?
  
• They enter into a secret treaty with Raiàn where they agree not to interfere with each other, but recognize each other's authority.
  

 Notes on Russell Santiago

• He helps clean up Agonir's lair.
  
• He only sticks around long enough for fighty-things. Once it gets down to negotiating with druids and handing out food, he heads back to Caledonia. He declines Tina's offer to teleport him home as it will give him a chance to see more of the countryside and find people to help along the way.
  

Notes on Mistverge and the Black Bloods

• The Black Bloods basically take over the city subdividing it into districts except for Winfair Hillock, and the area around the Temple and the Hall of Justice.
  
• They collect "taxes" and actually provide services like helping people rebuild and providing food and water, and then once all that settles down they just shake down businesses for money in a Gotham city kind of way, but they never mess with Groundswallow General Store, Groundswallow Alchemical Gear, or Callie's boarding house. 
• The violence never gets too out of hand because the district bosses keep everything in check because The Voice keeps them in check. If they don't keep things in hand, they won't get to stay the district boss for very long. 
• Lord McNabb eventually becomes the defacto leader of the council.
