After agressive loading/reloading (maybe 100 or so tries), I was not able to find a Pathfinder anywhere in Harmondale. This meant that I had to settle for an Explorer/Tracker combo to travel to Barrow Downs (2 days instead of 1). Since I didn't arrive in Hamondale until the 8th (10:38AM) and then had to clean out the castle first, I didn't arrive at the Dwarf King's castle until 2:12PM 10 Jan. I then fired my Explorer and hired Pathfinder bought a beacon scroll, set same. Saw the king and went to Bracada Desert, arriving at 3:22PM on the 11th. Bought another beacon scroll in Bracada Desert, saved the Dwarves in the mine and beaconed back to the Dwarf's Castle. arriving ar 4:41PM 11 Jan. Saw the king, fired my Tracker and hired a Gatemaster and portalled back to Harmondale, exiting the caslt at 4:43PM 11 Jan and starting the war.

Now, this means that the war won't end until 4:43PM 11 May. Since I know I can't even get to Celeste until the war ends and even though I can do everything else in those 4 months,I CANNOT even get back to Avlee until sometime on the 11th of May. From Avlee to the Shoals is another day. That means I cannot aven get to the Lincoln and finish the game until sometime on the 12th of May.
