We're all invested, yes, but we should remember we're discussing the actions of our characters first and foremost.That's fine and good Warren... but were the players of these characters all aware that their characters were forfeit when they joined the villain side? That's going to be the end result of this (if it is to be believable). Its something for Askier and his crew to think about before they set the results in stone. That's why it had to be brought up.
Osric's post is on the money. This isn't a "everyone in Ul'dah on 7/12 is dead" situation, but it's going to increase tension. It's almost amusing how similar the MSQ from 2.3 lines up with this sort of thing.
There are plans underway to alleviate, but not remove, the looming threat of dehydration. There are plans underway to handle potential events on the way.
The victory means nothing if you don't have to overcome something to attain it.
Things to remember:
1. The fate of a character is ultimately up to that character's player. No character is "forfeit" unless the player chooses to give it up.
2. Consequently, it is up to each player how the consequences of their actions play out in a somewhat realistic, believable fashion. No one gets a free out... but that doesn't mean they don't get an out.
Case in point: depending on how things go, Osric may get taken into custody, thrown in prison, charged with treason, scheduled to hang, broken out of prison, and have to flee for his life. Alternatively, depending on how any potential plea is received, he may be exiled, or taken into a black ops unit, or hanged, etc. ...
