Dialogue at the end there felt a bit weak. Liked the rest. Can't wait 'til they're on the road again. I know what you mean. This is all important story line though...

Seryth tried to decipher the words Elminster muttered under his breath, but was bewildered by the long string of words. Suddenly, Khelben Blackstaff appeared on the floor, holding a plate of spaghetti, with the fork half lifted to his mouth.
"WHAT THE ****, EL! HOW MANY TIMES HAVE I TOLD YOU TO WARN ME FIRST?" exploded Blackstaff.
Elminster chuckled under his breath and muttered a half-hearted apology.
"Sorry, Khelben. It's all good fun. Not like you've never done it to me," With that, he cleared his throat to address all present, "Now, let's get down to business".
;D
I haven't written in a long time, and I must say, that felt good. I'm only ending the post here because I have to go, but I'll be back to finish it later. So I think what I'll do anyway is just write really short segments at a time so It's easier for you guys to read.

AWESOME!!!! Well, it wasn't much, but was better then nothing. Elminster chuckled under his breath, and muttered a half-hearted apology. Don't need the 'and' there if you have a comma before it. I think... I'm glad you are contuing this story raist.

This part probably won't be much fun to read, sorry.
"Khelben, if you would please explain the situation to our heroes," said Elminster, suddenly sober.
The plate disappeared from Khelbens grasp. He stood up, and cleared his throat.
"The matter at stake is of utmost importance to the survival of our world. As you have heard, our world is slowly being eaten by the great falls, and our island is all that is left of what was once a huge world, many times the size of our world now, with all walks of life. We are only still here because we were in the center of world.
Now. As with every problem, there is a solution. The reason for the falls shrinking is, quite simply, punishment. Gods have lost faith in men (and I use that term loosely), they believe that nothing but wealth and power matter to us anymore, that there are none left who are valiant and brave. We must prove them wrong. They have, thankfully, given us the chance to. They have put up four lighthouses, each representing its own element: Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire. You must battle your way to the top of each structure, and light the beacon. What happens after you have lit the four, we know not. Whether it will stop the falls in their tracks or restore the world, it must be done. Now, the locations. They are all on the tips of the cardinal directions:
Water, to the north, Fire, to the South, Air, to the East, and Earth, to the west.
That is all the information we have. I suggest you gather food and supplies tonight, and get a fresh start tomorrow morning. You must throw aside the grudges from the match and work together. All I have left to say now is good luck, and may the Gods be with you."
With that, Khelben called in a servant to show them out. They were lead through the corridors to a room for them to stay the night in. They were provided with food and any supplies they needed for the adventure.
There was an ackward silence between Seryth and Artemis at this point. Just as they were getting ready to go to bed, Artemis approached Seryth, looking apprehensive.
"Look, Seryth... I... uh... I just wanted to... apologize... for... what I did in the arena. It was--" Artemis said, clearly not used to apologizing to people, but was cut off.
"Going to happen anyway? It had to, if I had been thinking clearly, I would have done the same thing to you. Those were the rules of the match. I am the one who should apologize, I reacted badly." replied Seryth. "Let's just put it behind us, and focus on lighting these God-Damned beacons."
"O-Ok... sounds good. Yeah. Alright. See you in the morning" said Artemis, clearly not expecting this as a reply, and walked back to his room.

OK, first off this is a huge info dump. While this is the easiest way to explain things, it isn't the best by a long shot.
Plus he covers many things that they should already know about, such as the fall.
Besides that it really is a good update to a story that I had really liked before you stopped writing it.
Oh, and either the thief is being way out of character, or we're seeing a new side of him

That's why I said the post wouldn't be that much fun to read. I'm not good enough to integrate it with action.
Dynamic characters? Do I really have to explain why he said that?

I might just end up typing in this font just for fun. Rainbows are fun to read. But annoying, I guess.
