You see, Spellfire is one of the few weapons that we know can harm Storm.  He has other weaknesses --- we are sure of that.  But we have yet to discover them.  She must be ready to weild her gift when he himself comes...and we have no idea how long we have."Meanwhile, Maggie explains the map to everyone. "As you can see, there are many enterences to the large building that we believe to house the new fleet...and none of them are easy to access.  I am certian that there is a way from inside the temple of Gond, right out the side.  I suspect that one exists in the Temple of Umberlee as well.  Regardless, there are two overhead tunnels on the fourth floor of th etemples that also provide access.  As we have seen, the temples themselves are well-defended in their own right, with the elevator being the only way to move between the relevant floors.  Not taht we havent rushed into there sucessfully before, of course.  The river runs right through the building.  It is, ostensably, used to power mills and such within the temples.  Water comes in through a grating, 100 feet wide before the building, traveling just under the wall.  It comes out through another grating just under the bridge, where it goes to the sea.  The bridge can divide into two and raise itself.   It is a gondian invention.  There are platforms underneath, going accorss the bridge to the grating.  I am not sure what they are for.  Probably the maintainence of the bridge mechanism.  Those guard towers are usually well-equipped and well-staffed, and genrally a small group of guards hides on the roof in various places.  There are no arial protections as such, but the Grtak (Storm's "Diplomatic Police Force," a Gestapo-like group that operates in areas taht are allied with Storm but not technically occupied) generally have a small patrol of Wyvragon Riders (Hobgoblins riding half-red dragon wyverns) in the sky at all times, often passing over the dock.</blockquote>
