I also liked Dregoth's plot and think it is interesting and well thought-out. There was one small suggestion I thought I may make. The last section Raam in Ruins discusses the various factions that remain. At one point it states, "...Nanda openly proclaims Raam’s crematorium to be the headquarters of the Veiled Alliance in Raam." Why would she do this? Earlier in the adventure when the Veiled Alliance is first discussed it states that, "Raamites trust wielders of magic even less than they did before the death of the Dragon." Nanda nor the rest of the Veiled Alliance does anything during the adventure to change their minds. In fact, Nanda was secretly in league with Dregoth before he arrived. (Image that coming up at a press conference when Nanda is running for mayor.) I cannot think of any reason the Raamites would not proceed directly to the crematorium to burn it down and lynch any magic users they find. Other than the fact that they may have more important things to do at the movement, like rebuilding the city. It worked in Tyr, because Sadira was part of the VA and she played a major roll in freeing the city from Kalak and defeating the Dragon. But in Raam the citizens have no such example of how benevolent preservers can be. My suggestion, if it is possible, would be to just drop that sentence from the final version. Let the Veiled Alliance remain in hiding. Just a little suggestion.
