It´s quite tempting to accept such an offer, especially with all those aparent benefits.
To be clear, though, they didn´t offer me any payment (I should have mentioned that in my posts) but an opportunity to use their ressources (manpower, material, scientific research and so on) for my own work – so I wouldn´t work FOR them, but instead WITH them restoring areas and ages of the D´ni, and writing my own ages, which they in return would help me to restore and research.

Yesterday evening I was invited to visit their headquarters, where I indeed met some other guys from said group. They seem to be legitimate, but on the other hand, who can tell :) I will post more about that visit later today.

Anyways, I will seriously take your advice and be careful – and my Relto book always goes with me. I don´t want to risk an incident like that tumbling wall. (see my former post “Unpleasant trip”).

Your description of this group raises a whole bunch of red flags. They contacted you out of the blue and immediately mentioned giving you access to large amounts of money; when you met someone, he was hanging back away from the main group and got you into a secluded area almost immediately; there is no indication that they tried to find or contact more than one Writer, or talk to you for more than a few hours at most, before deciding you were the one for the (lucrative, and therefore expensive for them) job; googling for “Risoahl” turns up nothing and “Kurat” is apparently a Russian-language racial slur for Estonians; as far as I can tell, you haven’t met any of the supposedly 40+ members besides this one person.

This sounds very interesting and worthwhile if it’s on the level. I suggest you proceed with caution: take a friend with you when you go to meet the staff, and make sure you know where your Relto book is.
