Subject: Debrief of Survivors From The Hayley Chain Incident
Date: 12/3/39
Author: SGT Abigail Potter
At 2000 hours, survivors from the incident came to Westbrook Garrison for debrief. The list of names mentioned in the story are as follows:
[Deceased] Ninah Suarez ((played by Gretchen))
Died while valiantly drawing the attention of a behemoth hozen named "Grimpot" so that her comrades could escape. Grimpot is the cause for several of the deceased below.
[Alive] Petty Officer William Turner ((played by Cooper))
Fought to the end before knocked out and falling off the ship.
[Deceased] Master Chief Petty Officer Richard "Dick" Uppercutt ((played by Thaddeus))
Died from friendly fire, a bullet to the head, as one of the crew fired while blinded by sap.
[Deceased] Doctor Professor Emrise Jones ((played by Tilliea))
Died in a valiant attempt to retake their ship, facing against Grimpot.
[Deceased] Petty Officer Second Class Kyle Richards ((played by Almerim))
Died in the midst of his attempt to rescue Chuck Bower, slain by a large hozen.
[Deceased] Sir Anders Nighthall the Striving ((played by Alison))
Died from gatling gun fire when Grimpot commandeered it after killing Henry Thorne.
[Deceased] Seaman Thrust Cracken ((played by Nathul))
Died while valiantly trying to slay Grimpot and secure their ship.
[Deceased] Lieutenant Brett McMunsch ((played by Maxen))
Unlucky victim of Grimpot, died when receiving a crushing below.
[Deceased] Petty Officer Third Class Henry Thorne ((played by Grilem))
Died while attempting to lay cover fire so that his comrades could escape. Killed by Grimpot.
[Alive] Foreman Chuck Bower ((played by Abigail))
Somehow survived, likely because he did not engage in combat.
[Alive] Lyle Lizzleboat ((played by Clye))
Fought to the grim end, rescuing William in the process before being marooned.
The story is summarized as follows:
* Smooth sailing to the Hayley Chain.
* Horde ships present, distance maintained.
* Met with the foreman of the azerite excavations, Chuck Bower.
* Detonated a small [empty] native village to harvest the azerite below the earth.
* Assisted Bower in securing another section of the island.
* Bower got stuck in a snare trap, and hozen presence seemed to be watching them.
* Bower took a spinal injury from a fall which caused further disruption in their mission.
* The hozen assault began with a horn, and they swarmed the party.
* The party fought against overwhelming odds, making their way back to the ship. Several died in the chaos.
* They were nearly able to retake their ship, but the hozen overcame them and left them marooned for weeks.
* Other ships, Alliance and Horde alike were also seen being commandeered.
* "Big Grook" was mentioned, a hozen clan.
It would appear that these hozen have been rallied into a threatening force, and they are likely the same hozen that appeared in the Eastern Kingdoms.
