"The Council has laid silent in recent years," How about 'times'? I'll have a look at the quest later tonight.

"Wizard, you have been summoned! Zanrath, the High Mage of Sarako, has summoned the Wizards' Council to his tower."

I love it in both stances but I'm not sure it breaks that writing technique i pointed out. How about the second being called/requested. There isn't really another word as extravagant and suited to the fantasy genre, summoned is a powerful word to use.

Wizard, you have been summoned! Zanrath, the High Mage of Sarako, has ordered the Wizards' Council to his tower.

If anyone wants to pitch in a Quest or cards I would not be upset.

Running the Gauntlet. I'd remove the second 'while' and another paragraph has too many 'ands' init.

Running the Gauntlet I took word for word from the original version. I just added the first half of the first line. Can't bring myself to change a lot on an Unofficial Official Quest.
