"Fighting Pharasma is one thing.  Fighting the plot is another.  The current incentives that have been applied to me are sufficient to force me to hurry up and get on with the main plotline, taken at face value, because I do not, in fact, want to destroy Egorian as well as Absalom, or destroy all of Cheliax and send its inhabitants to Hell because possibly this world is mostly not real and one of my putative children ends up in a sequel being mostly real.  When I consider defying those incentives, there is then the further question of whether the incentives just escalate as opposed to staying in place while I defy them."

"I'm not saying flatly no.  I'm saying why I'm hesitant to defy the current incentives that suggest getting this all cleared up in a couple of weeks objective."
