I will resume this, probably later this week. I just have had a recent death in the family and other projects I'm working on - a fanfic isn't my highest priority right now.
To clarify on thing, this is meant to be set slightly before Jaheira discovered Minsc in Baldur's Gate. At this point both she and Aerie believe he had been returning to Rasheman, and vanished. And Aerie is so much of a wanderer, even wandering away from Toril altogether sometimes, that its very hard for even a High Harper to track her down and get a message to her; it was just chance that they both were in Waterdeep at the same time. Admittedly I never really thought much about how long some of the Extraplanar Circus characters had been there; just assumed probably a while.
