I think that's where you were supposed to meet Storyteller.

Storyteller seems to be an important part of this game, but I haven't finished it.

So, who knows.

It affects help you were supposed to receive in the last quest in chapter 1 directly, and you miss a quest in chapter 3.

By either reloading or starting a new game. It's still early in the game, so shouldn't be much time lost. Personally, I'd just continue.

Sometimes, after the fact, you can hover over something in the dialogue box and it will suggest why you end of with a particular outcome.

If you rescue the wizards, they will perform a ritual that gives you a very long duration Haste effect during your attack on the Gray Garrison.

You also unlock the Trickster mythic path at the Blackwing Library.

Trickster unlock just involves the appropriately labelled dialogue option - doesn't matter if you're too late (storyteller still there even if you're late)

In my playthroughs, I usually go help Woljif ASAP, cause I want Finnean. Then I hit up the marketplace, then the Pitaxean Cellar, then back to the Library. The Library teleports you back to the Defender's Heart and I don't want to make a second trip to the Cellar.

I think the main thing is that you need to hit the library before the fight at the Tavern if you want to save the Crusaders.

In my reply after i rescued crusaders, dzena, and tifliengs groups i dont need to fight for taver i just speak with Irabet and get 1000+ points because i interrupted atack to Tavern.

Question still opened about common cause quest compliting, because after starting atack to Grey Garrison the part of common cause quest shown like failed where shown which groups rescued ( it was crisaders , dzena and tigliengs). Are this mean thaat i must rescue someone else ?

[forkofspite]

Are you referring to the overall quest status (left hand side in the index / upper right corner of the quest page)? Are you referring to the individual "gather allies" goal? Are you referring to each of the potential allies (i.e. Hulrun's soldiers, thieflings)?

I'm only able to easily review my first run where I only recruited Hulrun's soldiers and the thieflings. After telling Irabeth to start the assault (The Burning City quest), "A Common Cause" got the green check, but "Gather allies for the attack on the Gray Garrison" got the red X.

Need to find three groups to complete that quest. Thieflings and the guys you rescue from the library are two. Then either Desnans or Inquisitors. Can't have both.

[fox5s]

Interrupted? Are you talking about hitting the Tower? I usually do that after the Library. I kind of have to hurry or I'll run out of time before the Tavern fight starts. There's usually enough time to hit the the other place in the same direction of the Tower but it's a close thing.

The Gwerm mansion and the other things on that branch of the city I usually end up having to go to after the Tavern fight.

Yes, that appears to be the case. Green checks for both (A Common Cause & Gather allies for the attack on the Gray Garrison) if you recruit three.
