1.4.02 Kilmore Attacks on Thieves

**Report was given over comms and transcribed the House Stargazer Steward and sent out to the employees in the morning of April 29th.**

On the evening of April 28th, I made my way up to Gilneas to speak with my cousin Laura Hightower. She currently operates the Thieves Guild out of the region. I needed to tell her face to face, that I ended her father’s life. While she had known this was probably an inevitable end to the man that so passionately supported the Scarlet Crusade, it is always different when it actually happens. For this, I took Stone with as well as one of my personal shadows

Upon arriving at the gated hall, I was informed the gate was broken by the guards. They proceeded to inform me that the Kilmore’s have attacked when they lifted the veil for the most recent market. They barely got the citizens in safely, but there were numerous injuries and several deaths.

Eventually making my way to Laura, she informed me the same, that it was the Kilmores. Seems they were very heavy supporters of the Gladstones and not thrilled with how that family has been dropping like flies. I would be remiss to not add that I feel a lot of blame in this, but we have to keep moving forward. Laura holds no ill will after I did explain what has happened to the Gladstones thus far.

I also met Aragnes Thorn who leads the *<Redacted>*. They would offer service to us as well if needed, but I declined at this moment since we still seem to be safe with our alliances with the *<Redacted>* and the *<Redacted>*. Stone and I stayed the night at the guild to ensure things were quiet and have departed in the morning back to the homestead in Porthcrawl as we have been alerted the net caught something.

In the meantime, I have reached out to my contacts regarding the Kilmores. The transcripts of most of their returned information are as follows:

*<Redacted>: (c) "... Kilmore's? They have stakes in the Stormwind Elections, seem the family needs a certain side to win, I* *have seen one of the younger Kilmore's here in person, did not think anything of it till I saw the coin spent, and heard your call. They have a business in Old Town."*

*Admiral Silas Quinn: (c) "... Are you hurt? The Kilmore's? I heard they were strong supporters of the Crusade sort of the rich paying for their own security sort of family."*

*Captain Mitchell Ramsey: (c) "I have ran into their ships, the Kilmore family seems to have taken over five juggernauts. I have little experience with them otherwise though, ..."*

*<Redacted>: (c) "... I am going through the files we have now, it seems the Kilmore family was a big supporter of Eric Gladstone. Since his death my watchers have seen reports of attacks on all supporters of the Brokers. Seems before the Betrayers the Kilmore's supported the Two Hand Cartel."*

*Percival Gladstone: (c) "I had a feeling they would grow bold, ... I have signed over the Two Hand to Luke, are you hurt? Did the fallen get read their rites? The Kilmore family was responsible for a lot of deaths during the scourging of Lordaeron, and used their own people against the scourge like a barrier. From what I know they control Dames Point because the Iron Syndicate haven't made it that far yet, they seem to be keeping away from the black market controlled areas due to the amount of forces. The Kilmore's have been ones to stock up on money, and information and spend little to do their bidding."*

*<Redacted>: (c) "Well from my accounts, … , your company sorted out Winona Kilmore when they attacked Blackwake some time ago. The mercenaries that family has seems to be outcasts from the Golden Shroud Company, ones that did not pass the cut by the Weapon master."*
