@Doc: Can't really end peacefully [i]and[/i] have everyone die, now can we? Haha. Mixing them is definitely a possibility too. Hostility between families is then broken up by an Order raid. This allows the families to put aside their differences to face a common enemy [b]or[/b] ignore the real issue (the hunters) and continue fighting [b]or[/b] use the common enemy as a way of destroying the other families. I think I like this one.

@ToskaO: I'm partial to those as well. Addy doesn't necessarily need to be there, but that would mean it would be a bit longer before she is pulled into the conflict. We could come up with some way to get her there, if you want, as well. Any ideas on that front?

@upscalerat: How about the mix of 2 and 3?
