Situation Log

SITUATION

Sir Omikilvaegt Stalison and Lady Dainn Stalison, first and second in line for the duchy of Riktsot are dead.
Their mother, Duchess Althwin of Riktsot, has recently found through her personal contacts that her youngest son still lives.
Her third son and current heir, Sir Erling Stalison, was MIA (assumed KIA) in the earliest stages of the war.
Our own investigations have located him in Nahuiciya, where he roams the streets in disguise but accompanied by many Deepwood Veil attendants.
We believe that he may be involved with “The Festival of Smoke”.

OBJECTIVE

Locate soldiers that Sir Stalison served with and question them about his loyalties, habits, and the nature of his capture.
- We believe that you can find them in the army stationed at Little Cliff.
Travel to Nahuiciya and discover where Sir Stalison is quartered.
Extract or eliminate him, based on your findings.
Return to Central Intelligence HQ immediately.

COMPLICATIONS

There are many unknowns in this mission. You will need to play it by ear.
Sir Erling Stalison is said to be “in disguise”, but we lack a detailed account of what that means exactly.
Erling is a tall, dark-gray skinned, half-orc with a small amount of elf heritage. He has long black hair worn in braids and has exceptionally long thin ears and lacks tusks/fangs.
Getting past the border might be tricky with the number of active enemy battalions in the area. Extraction could be difficult.
If you are more worried about infiltration, your Ehnet can make a fast approach in your flying ship over the 9th Lealand and exfiltrate by walking back through the Courlac region. This would put you in the forested no-man’s land between Battlegroup Green, the 4th Uteland, and 5th Kulap.
If you are more worried about exfiltration, your Ehnet can walk to Nahuiciya though the aforementioned region, and exfiltrate using the city’s extensive extraplanar-portal networks.

CLOSING

Gods be with you.
