Re: Dinner is served...
The catch I have is that you're into your fourth day into the jungle...there's just no reasonable way that you could meet up with others, though if need be, I will find a replacement for Rand. Of course, you could meet up with the other albeit hostile adventurers...
But you have my promise, if push comes to shove, I will tailor the adventure so that you can either press on to the goal and take your chances with success, or reach your starting point safely. You won't die because others left you.
