I should have called this "The Possessed".

So VINO is the only one who is supposed to ever take our advice to go to the monastery, right? Or did I mess something up?

No, that's correct. Only Vino will go to the monastery, most of the others will not believe you.

Vino always seems to die when I attack the seekers who are holding him captive. Poor guy has no real armor and joins in on the attack.

Ahh, yeah. I played around with it a bit to see how to make him survive.

First, if you walk around the first 3 you can take out the one next to VINO without aggroing them, then I... actually don't remember if I froze them or just beat them all to death. Pretty sure at that point they were aggroed to me instead of VINO.

Thanks for the clarification, helpo1. So hard to tell if I should make it a question thread or not sometimes.
