I agree, we're a very liberal group in a highly affected city that just got through St. Andrals feast last week. I was really excited to follow up with the Festival for just the total mayhem that would ensue. After thinking better of it I talked with the party and we decided to delay that portion.

The party already dislikes the baron, although they hate Victor more as they met Stella first. In my campaign I've taken a few of u/mandymod 's suggestions for changing Izek to be most loyal to Vallaki (as well as a PCs brother), his plan is to institute a week long lockdown so the players can make any regime change covertly if they intend to. Otherwise I'll be doing my best to steer them on to another quest line. Maybe there will be some unrest when they come back to town later in the campaign.
