Ah yes... <i>If</i> the PCs end up going that far. After all, by this stage the objectives have been met, the perimeter cleared and you can leave it to the locals... (In my game it was the timely arrival of El Cid his followers).

I like Markessa. The "end boss" in A1 is a boring cipher (albeit with WEASELS!), and we don't really get much of a glimpse of the personalities of the bosses in A3 and A4 (not to mention that the pirate guy is named "Feetla," gag) but the villains in A2 are pretty entertaining and memorable by dungeon-crawl standards of the time.

True, I should have made more of a point of them in the review of A2; a poor oversight on my part. Doesn't change my overall opinion on the module however; I really disliked running it.
