"Interesting thoughts." Alion says. He turns to the others. "What say you?"

"Even if it is so, we don't have any idea where this shrine would be located." Leshanna says with a shrug. "seems we are back to square one, with no clear path to where we should be going."

Blue shrugs his shoulders  "I have no idea.  I"m not even from here."

"I doubt it is on this plane of existence,  but I am not sure of even that."

"So you say you do not know much of these things?" Leshanna asks with a glance to their host. "Do you know who might know of such things? We are most likely looking for the shrine of Pualaine. Does anyone have knowledge of where such a thing might be, or have hints to whom might know of such lore?"

Sorry for my absense. Lake trip.

"The peoples of this town are not well versed in prophecy, but you might as well go to Thor's temple, though I doubt you would get anything out of it.'

"Is there another town you would say we would have a better chance with?" Leshanna asks. Does Leshanna herself know of a better town to get information? We know nothing about this world, so have no way to move forward...

You definitly have contacts in pretty much every major town

Leshanna turns to the others. "It does not sound like this other temple is likely to net us anything, but i'd say we should at least check it out." She sighs though. "I think we should head out, after that, and check in with an old friend of mine. They will be able to tell us, if not where to look for this temple, then who might know of such information." She is thinking of a loremaster contact she has in one of the more academic centers of the world.

 K. I'll assume that they are a level 3 divination wizard with a mark of finding, meaning that they exell in communication and, of course, have the posture and size of a Ebberoni

So, do you go and meet them? They live about 10 miles away

I think we need to find out who is all still playing. Seems like only me posting lately. Others still here?

After a brief stop at the temple mentioned, Leshanna would lead the others out of town and the half-day's travel to where her contact lives.

I'm still here  - just returned from overseas travel and wifi out house is down.....

I'm having trouble following the story as there is no background to the current world or even our characters personnel knowledge...All we have to go on is this below?  

pGreetings. My name is Pualaine. There are dangers approaching the planes. Will you accept my quest to save the planes, and, in turn, free me from my imprisonment. You would know that Pualaine is a NG god that was trapped due to a corruption that turned them to CE. Adventurers in the past have attempted to free them by saving the planes from the corruption of Nidiomediulos, more commonly known as Medi. Eventually one group was able to free the Outlands from Medi’s grasp and was able to start changing Pualaine back, able to change them to NE before they were smited down by Medi. This is where you come in. You need to free Pualaine from Medi’s grasp to beat him, and luckily the other gods are waging a constant war against him. However, only seventeen divines remain. If you are to late, there will only be one. Medi.

Also still here.

We also know to find the "shrine, savior, and lost god."

 So basically you're in the outlands, with all the official content and you know things from your home world, and maybe some other planes and you just got a vision. You know that the other realms exist, but unless you're a schoaler or something, you don't know much in particular about them.

Think: You know that there are 9 layers of hell, but you don't know the exact names of all of the rulers.

And, hopefully, this new direction will get us some information. There has not been a real good amount of that coming our way, so, hopefully, the DM gives us a bit more this time, otherwise this journey might end before it begins.

 Hey, I'm working with what I got

That is fine, wasn't trying to be critical, just that it doesn't appear we hit on the right track yet. We are running blind here, more so than in normal games, so finding the direction to go is not clear to us as players, let alone to our characters.

 That and I'm kinda bad at not railroading

Being in the outlands then I assume we have access to:

as well as Sigil...

So what we really need is some starting point.  Where to we go to free Pauline?
