Embrace mishaps in your #dnd games. Running Descent into Avernus, there's a chance whenever the party travels to a new location while in Avernus, that they end up off track and somewhere else.
Both times this happened in my current game it led to fantastic additions. 1/3

The first time helped fill an odd plot hole, introduced another Archdevil’s machinations into the mix, sealed a diabolical deal with the PCs, and exposed a layer of intrigue to the hierarchy of the Hells that would have gone without the spotlight. 2/3 The second time filled in part of Zariel's story specifically, and gave the party the chance to recruit an ally that they would have otherwise missed by choosing the Path of Devils to progress through the adventure. Because of this side trek, they are poised for success. 3/3
