SUMMARY: A team infiltrated the occupied city of Perendale to collect information and made contact with the world's dimmest underground resistance.

REPORT:

As directed— traveled to Perendale by griffon under cover of night. Made contact with a resistance force. They are not capable of mounting an effective counter attack on their own, but they are happy to follow basic direction to set the stage for the future involvement of Riftwatch or her allies.

The city is well-fortified and many of its defenses still stand. The city's citizenry is suffering lightly from rationing and other general hallmarks of an enemy occupation. Criminals not judged noose bound are subject to enslavement and either taken as spoils of war by officials within the city, or sent back to the Tevinter Imperium.

The state of the occupation force has been weakened by a confident position. There are enough proper soldiers to keep the population in hand, though a not insignificant number of replacements for the initial invasion force—now evidently pushed to the front lines—are clerks and quartermasters and magisterial officers and et cetera.

Have amended a rough map of the city marked with the residence of the General-Mayor Gosleus and field offices in the city's administrative districts. The griffons quickly grew unhappy with their quarters. They are keen on their own tower. Suggest two day training outings to break them of the habit.

NEXT STEPS: Utilize the Perendale resistance to help lay the groundwork for future intervention. Recently enslaved citizens selected to work for the officers occupying the city may be a good source of information if contact can be made.
