I'm curious as to whether or not we're going to have personally do something to bring them back (Perhaps this ties into the last SB MSQ dungeon somehow?), or if whoever spirited them away is just going to give them back once they've told/shown them what they needed to see or rather kept them out of commission long enough to prevent history from repeating its course.

The fact that Thancred then Urianger and Y'shtola got KO'd right when they were trying to entertain certain ideas seemed a little too convenient.
