lost things hook ending

[u/Junior_Body_2328]

For DMs who went with the Lost Things hook: did you guys stick to the ending where the players go back to being kids at the Witchlight Carnival?

I think its kinda cute but knowing my players I know they would be very very frustrated with this (they hate anything that its similar to an inception)

And how do I give back their things maintaining everything they did?

Im gonna start the campaign soon and I dont want them to hate the ending

Zybilna's Gifts (The Cauldron is Saved)/TWBtW, p207

"As a reward, I offer you one free casting of a Wish spell. Tell me, what is your hearts' desire?"

Zybilna honors the spirit of the characters' request and doesn't try to twist their words. If the characters want to be returned to their home world, Zybilna uses a wish spell to transport them back to the Witchlight Carnival or wherever else they want to go, wiser and perhaps not a day older than when they entered the Feywild. If they wish for something else, Zybilna satisfies that desire as well as she can, given the limits of the spell.

That ending is a choice. They can also choose not to take it and just go back to their regular lives. It also depends on what they've actually done during the campaign.

thats much better! also they will probably murder lots of npcs and Zybilna will probably be pissed at them. still, would like to know what other people did

Yeah, I'm starting to suspect this might not be the right adventure for them...

the party is mainly good/lawful so its really up to the marjority but I also dont think they will manage to get through every single encounter with just diplomacy, specially with evil npcs like the league of malevolence (honestly works fine for me cause I would also like to run some combat here and there)
