Within a few days of these reports flooding in there is a violent storm that lashed the Sea of Mists. From that storm a number of ships are now reported missing. A single ship has returned to Lor immediately after the storm, battered and badly damaged the Raven Trade Guild ship docked in Lor for repairs.
Observers report seeing several notable personages leave the ship who appeared weary, grim and gave the onlookers a great sense of foreboding, the sense that something terrible has happened was gravely evident.
