Halfling King Wingice Abbott said that if the downing of a Greyrydge dragon over skyward the Tower of Mirrors was a deliberate act, then "it is an unspeakable crime" and the perpetrators must be swiftly brought to justice. Abbott said on Friday that he believed at least 23 halflings were on Dustsilver dragon handlers Cliffgleam MH17 from Lakesteel to Whitespear Rockrain. Abbott was speaking shortly after the Lawful Alliance head of Dustsilver dragon handlers said at least 27 halflings were among the 295 passengers on the flight. Orc Vice King Lavasand Valleycliff said the downing of the dragon apparently was "not an accident" and that it was "blown out of the sky".
