Formless is working on the assumptions that 1) Its entirely possible it just was driven off, banished, or otherwise 'removed' from the world and 2) Even if it -is- actually dead, there's no reason something that can try to eat a world won't just come back to life eventually and 3) Even if it -was- forever killed, its entirely possible that there are -more- of them, and nothing will draw their notice than one of their 'brothers' dying.

Destroyed ancient capital in the middle of a lifeless wasteland with no visible sources of food or water? Peeeerrrrfect, let's build a new Warforged kingdom where no soft-skins will bother us. Just kidding.
'did not broadcast location signals' = Quil has Locate Temple, but not Locate City... and you need to be of the same deity to use locate temple, so that is out.
'overheating nonsense' = No more magic for now
'but let's see what the sky has to say about it.' = Taking 10 on a Knowledge Nature roll to predict the weather in all directions.

10+15=25

This is my last extended absence, I'll be back Saturday morning. Feel free to put Quil wherever he needs to go. He is preferring shade at this point, but is open to any reasonable direction.

Humans, you recall the architecture easily as the human empire that you lived in most of your career as a mercenary group.

Please note that (if applicable) Quil has +2 Trap Sense, Evasion, and Improved Uncanny Dodge from his Divine Oracle levels. (The name of the ability providied by DO is different, but I replaced it with the equivalent SRD one for ease of of use.)
Edit - Quil will convey IC his arcana roll after whatever is about to happen happens.
