Where I disagree with Wormerine is on Halsin: Halsin may be a credible source to tell us that ours is not behaving in the traditional way, but he is not a sufficient information source, as it stands currently, to reassure and take the time pressure off us
Just to be pendantic, when I said
From my perspective the problem is enhanced by most of he content in act1 being irrelevant to the player character - very early on only Helsin is established as a credible solution.
I meant that I see finding Helsin as the only narratively reasonable objective to pursue, with other content being irrelevant to our PC or healing sources of questionable competency/goodwill. After he doesn't solve the problem, then it's straight off to moonlight tower. Even once we learn that our tadpole is magically suspended, it doesn't mean that force that suspends it is benevolent or will last for forseeable future.
