In some ways, it seemed clever, and in some, it seemed rash. What if by giving out this mission, instead of attracting people to work hard for him, they would rather cut corners and just slaughter Darius or pressure the Mercenary Guild to cough up the reward?
What if when they rush into the Plains of Death and many of the weaker ones die - which frankly seemed inevitable - they would rise up as Undead and become troops for the zone?
What if a group of Adept champions felt greedy and decided to charge into the third band and actually managed to kill the Stonekeeper, then found the First Resurrection Stone? What if they realized it was more valuable than anything Darius could offer and refused to cough it up?
Once Darius generated this first step, he realized he had found around 300,000 possible outcomes that Caesar calculated at the least. Of course, he couldn't perform such heavy computation on his own, even with 50 points in Intellect, but he could vaguely see the paths.
