Description
If anyone knows where the admiral is, then surely it must be his captains on the ships in Onslaught Harbor. <The lord-commander rubs his hands together.> Welsington and Hartford are their names if memory serves. Go beat the information out of them and then end their miserable lives. I want to know where the grand admiral is hidden!
