I am confused how this quest works on the overlord side of things. The first part I am confused about is it says the open group is not placed during setup, but there is no indication the group comes out at all during that encounter. Another part I am confused about it says "the overlord replaces any 2 villager tokens on the map with 1 chaotic rift each, his choice of color." But then on the ritual part it says as an action, while adjacent to a captive scholar, Tristayne Olliven may test knowledge, if he passes, the overlord replaces the token with a chaotic rift of his choice.So which is it? Do I have to get 2 villagers to get 1 chaotic rift which is impossible to win the quest (need 5 rifts open) that way being that there is only 7 villager tokens. Or is it the description in the Ritual segment.
The open group thing also bothers me if someone can clarify. I know there is an open group in the 2nd encounter, but it still doesn't make sense to have an open group listed on the first encounter and then never use it. The second encounter also says nothing about the open group from the first encounter being used.
