[@DrunkasaurusRex] I completely understand that. But with regards to your own character in the Stepstones I can give you a brief overview of events. Basically, Aemon went forward with his plan to infiltrate the Scorpion Rebels. They managed to get into the meeting with the help of the Captain of the Maiden's Men whom they captured and flipped to their side. Aemon learned of the Scorpion's plan to create a diversion for the royal fleet by attacking a Bloodstone port, then attacking Torturer's Deep with the main part of their fleet to capture Lord Aurane and strengthen their position. Aemon is embedding himself in the diversionary attack with the majority of the crew, while the Captain of the Maiden's Men and Visenya will lead others and be part of the main pirate fleet to attack Torturer's Deep. They will try their best to inform on the Scorpions to the Iron Throne and waylay the rebels, and link up again with each other. You can choose which operation, Malrik might be apart of and any scenes now would likely be small character interaction scenes with whoever is nearby.
