The debriefing with Guild Master Theron was brief and professional.
"Tier 5 corruption source confirmed," Gareth reported, presenting the mystical recordings they'd collected. "Located in unexplored depths, approximately three kilometers past previous expedition endpoints. Ambient Chaos Energy exceeded safe parameters for our team composition."
Theron studied the data with grave expression. "Paladin Seris's assessment?"
"She recommended immediate Church intervention," Kaela added. "Said the corruption source requires specialized response beyond standard Guild capabilities."
The Guild Master nodded slowly.
"Understood. I'll coordinate with Cathedral authorities on appropriate action. Your team performed admirably under difficult circumstances. Take two days of recovery leave, then report for new assignments."
