@Eodwyn Aether, are you waiting for Roundabout? It's been a week since he's visited the site at all, so you might as well post before I make the new one tomorrow.

As the others asked their questions, Edward nodded in return to the twins, and then moved on to answering them punctually.
"To answer the both of you, I have brought this," Edward said, and pulled a scroll from his sleeve.
"As you may know, Kaaos has incredible power, almost rivaling a god. He can't be killed by swords or sorcery, as we have learned over time. But then we found something of great interest: It took our scribes weeks, but they managed to translate an old prophecy. It has mention of discord in it, and we believe it was left by powers stronger than even Kaaos. If they have the same kind of magic that the legendary Jani the Wise wielded against the Efreet, it would surely be enough to end the cursed king. This is a copy of the translation."
He handed over the scripture, and as the party read the prophecy he answered another question from Khadila.
"I am but a servant of the realm, so I can't say for sure. However, I know without a single thought of doubt that letting that vile demon continue his torment over Evania has to end. The land may divide again after his overthrowing, but I believe that we can peace again achieve that age of piece together what we once had and have peace among our respective kin if we just work hard enough."
Once the scroll passed through the entire group and returned back to Edward he said: "We have plans for searching areas that-"
Then, suddenly a djinn with a white mask entered the room. Her black cloak weaved in the air and revealed her to be quite proportioned as she briskly walked over to Edward without making a single sound. Her voice was beautiful and ethereal, and had an enchanting quality to it; Eodwyn and Indigo in particular had to keep their resolve up to resist the charming effect her voice had.
"Sir, a message from the council just arrived. Your presence is requested at the capital." She had a black scroll float to Edward's hands. "It is a matter of utmost urgency."
Edward lited one of his eyebrows. "Can't you see I have other things to attend to, Mirage? What could possibly be so important for the council to contact me?"
"They are speaking of betrayal, sir. They need all officers immediately headed for Taistolot."
The burned man rose up from his seat. "I must be off then. But first, what are your decisions? Would you fight for a better future?"
"Plotting against the king is a grievous crime, punishable by death if one's lucky. Just hearing your words puts us all at risk. If what you say is true, however, it would be a risk worthy to take. But I'd hear more details before I offer my sword. For starters, if I were to agree, what then?"
“I think both you and I and everyone here know the power of Kaaos himself. Even if we were to agree to this little adventure, how the hell do you suppose we get close to him, let alone try to eradicate him? And secondly why us? Why this group? Surely you did not send this invitation of yours to any Tom, Dick and Harry who was against the Kaaos. What makes us so special?” Eodwyn said, never taking his eyes off Edward. Was this truly one of the Dawn Guards? Did he have possession of his blade? Does he know who Eodwyn truly is? All questions that could be answered at a later date. Eodwyn thought as he awaited a response.
"To answer the both of you, I have brought this," Edward said, and pulled a scroll from his sleeve.

He handed over the scripture, and as the party read the prophecy he answered another question from Khadila.
"Will our goals seek to revert the races' states as before Kaaos had taken our lands, or will we be continuing this...experiment of unity, even after Kaaos's downfall? I ask this only to prepare myself to act in the best interest of either of these goals; what Kaaos has done has given us a common enemy, but...I do fear our success, sometimes..."

They did get in since they used the password, I just forgot to mention them separately. Sorry about the confusion.
"Can we begin this night, again, with...hmm..."
Within the folds of her robes, she procures 200 pieces of gold to hand over to the bartender.
"...a few kegs of ale? I almost fell asleep with so much liveliness around me. Fairly certain the birds and bees here might get buzzing again if they had another draught bubbling in their guzzards, hm?"
The bartender smiled. "Certainly. Take a look in the back and see what I got on offer." Once Khadila passed through, Annelie also approached him and gave the password, granting her access as well. They were the last ones to enter the room, and there was tension in the air as the group of people anticipated what would happen next.
"The rest have arrived, it seems. Now then..." The man lifted his hood, and revealed to have visceral burn marks on the left side of his face.
"Once people knew me as Edward Bastillon. You might recognize the name, since I was part of the Dawn Guard," he said, referring to the order of knights who served as bodyguards to the king of the humans, Richard IX, before his untimely demise by the hands of Kaaos and the subsequent disbanding of the order. The order was known for its collection of swords called dawnriders, which were used by its most high-ranking members before they too were lost following the war.
"After a time of observing you, I have chosen to invite you to join us in our fight against the tyranny of Kaaos and end his reign of terror. We have seen him send the people against each other and thrive on it. We have observed as he encourages the mad behaviour he is known for on his peasants. This land can't survive with an insane king like him. But a revolution is possible, and with enough willpower, even impossible things can be made a reality. However, that requires brave hearts willing to achieve a new age in this land. So I ask you: will you join us, and help us bring freedom to Evania? If you have questions, you may ask them."

There are certain parts where you can use your coin to buy all kinds of items and equipment, for example when you're in a new city or happen upon a travelling merchant caravan. Also, I'd be interested to see what kind of models you come up with.

Sure, you can do one. I have a plot in mind which would work quite well with a relative.
