Paige, a paper golem associated with the People's College, is trying to find people willing to help her fix Triskelion's attack against humanity. She is specifically seeking Unification and Fracturing mages, as well as anyone with ideas about extracting part of the Splintered Man. She is also looking for a Wayfinder and fighters capable of dealing with particularly tough combatants.

As far as anyone can work out, she is not being supported by any of the organisations in the city who are also working on this problem and is not able to offer compensation for the mission.

The PCs manage to create a way back to Acryn by temporarily unifying a section of Acryn with Triskelion, using Armand's Guild Councillor Seal. Unfortunately, this merges part of Triskelion with the Council Treasury Vault in which the artefact powering the Councillor Seals is stored. It is unclear exactly how much of the Treasury has been lost, but no Councillor's seals are working and the Council is struggling to fund many of its projects. Its difficult to say whether fury at Armand's involvement in this loss is balanced by the joy at the recovery of an artefact which offers a solution to the Triskelion issue.

In fairly short order arrangements are made for the citizens of Acryn to drink from the cup. This mostly goes smoothly, although there are 2 mysterious deaths among people who drank from the cup which raises some concerns about how safe the cup actually is. Once 90% of the city has drunk from the cup, the constant stream of beasts pouring out of the Dragon Gate final ends, giving the defenders some desperately needed rest.

A few weeks later, a stranded Strossbourgian Pathfinder by the name Hewett Strang arrives in Acryn, saved from the Ocean by a passing merchant vessel.
