Operation Details

Soldiers Captured - Fate Unknown.   Information was relayed through Ayula's ability to contact HALe:   ---------   HALe will startle for a moment hearing a voice in his head. Recognizing Ayula's voice, and remembering Ayula's book, he quickly composes himself and responds in his head: "I'm okay, but taken prisoner with Graham and Rurik. Pim tried to run and I haven't seen him since he broke through the window of the only open building in Cobh which was a bar. He was pursued though, and I would assume, captured.   I did get some intel: Captain Domine and Cobh Mayor are in charge. There is another woman that is an advisor or alternate leader of some sort for Capt. Domine, but did not get her name. She seems to be an information gatherer or intelligence officer of some sort. Cobh wired to blow-up. Two guards were chosen to be trigger men for that, don't know which two guards though. All guards that we have seen are paired together when on duty. Remaining guards will be evacuated by boat if it looks like Horsa is winning and evacuation is needed. Two medium sized ships were in the harbor that I saw for evacuation I would presume. If Horsa manages to corner the Cobh soldiers at the docks that will also be a 'trigger' or signal for the explosion. Captain Domine and Mayor seem to be the only other ones able to give the final orders, which could be another way to trigger the explosives. We saw at least 40 guards but only saw a small portion of the town. Guards are made up of locals and reinforcements from Caer Callidyrr.   Did not have enough time to find out if there was an additional failsafe, or flaw in the system. Could not find out what the trigger actually was meaning we did not find out if trigger was mechanical or magical in nature. No information gathered regarding premature detonation of explosives. Please let command know."
