Well lets not go down route 3. If anything scaling back power and/or Power scaling isn't the best idea. Right now we have seen somewhat the highend of the scale here when it comes to power. The moment you drop a dragon into the game that kinda auto makes it powerful on the high end. As far as the reaper goes, well it is suppose to be agus of life and death so we have it for more or less revives should it call for it, besides something like that should stick around too much because as a strong creature, a well know strong creature, they tend to lure in things that PCs can't handle (Powerscaling see DBZ/GT) so it makes since that the reaper play quest giver/information dropper when needed or is around when the PCs need them.

As far as Edward is concerned, Power Scaling back ins't the idea. I mean look at him right now, he can't change form *Not going to drop a spoiler here* unless he can get enough energy in reserve or...[i]that happens[/i]. Sure right now he might stand out as the power house of the group which is fine, at this point he is muilty roling as Tank/DPS when needed but he is lazy about it. Joking and more or less screwing around because he is coping with the fact that well he can't be himself because of wounds that happened a long time ago.

As far as going to see the overgrown Salamander well if we are talking about story one could argue that there might be something in his home that the PCs need. (Edward just wants to hit him really hard) For atomicnut's PC I could imagine that the Salamander's home is really the main Tara-forming machine that need the Salamander knows he needs to get to and fix thus there is his reason. The Reaper might want to just get things stable again and find out what is bugging the Salamander so much. Samdragonx PC, well he is looking for Glory, and what more honor and or Glory can be gained from A: Fighting a dragon and living to tell the tale (Win lose, who cares you fought a god damned dragon and lived) and bring back the ladies of the kingdom, which in its self should be enough to get him a nice title and set of land. As for the Paladin, its not hard to guess that some one like that is more or less believing in the will of the gods thinking its right that such a beast shouldn't live/has done wrong. Who knows the Immortal council seem to be seen as the gods of this realm so go with it. (As for Atomicnut's PC he might know the Immortal council as something else, his bosses perhaps/co-workers?)

The story has many turns that it can take, meanwhile the Void is always a threat at any time a portal to such unstable energies could be opened by anyone or anything. There might be a group or perhaps person (hinting at Edward creature here Thin. *Wink wink*) who wants to restart this project because he believes something went wrong). Mayhaps its something else all together that might happen. Other countries might of figured out Mid-haven's tech is beyond what they have and want to for their own so WAR is a thing that might happen. While WAR can happen, its more then likely going to a Shadow War of sorts, something handled in the dark. Spies have always been weapons and thus they can be anyone anywhere at anytime. And thanks to magic information gathering and sending/reserving is a lot quicker then one thinks.

Now it might be the 191% Everclear in my system talking but I say move them out, consult with someone on the story and work together to get it a sodo line ready for the story that PCs are following, even if by following they trudge their own path. You need an end goal that gaps the start and finish. Once you get the finish in mind the rest can be added into the between as needed. If you need help I am here for ya, (Steam/Discord/Battle.net) so if you want help with the story then by all mean hit me up. For some reason I don't get writers block and I love just throwing ideas out for these kinds of stories. (Beats waiting for WoW/Starcraft II lines)
