The following is very public knowledge. Hastings Air has sent out an official statement offering a large gold reward for the successful return of Captain Donovan and the crew of the Red Barron.


We at the Hastings Air Cargo Company are saddened by the disappearance of Captain Donovan and the crew of the Red Barron airship. Captain James Donovan is a respected man in the community of Porta Denia and we at Hastings Air feel his loss as much as the community does because we are a part of the Porta Denia community. For those who may be wondering James Donovan and his crew were not under contract by Hastings Air at the time of their disappearance. Their decision to travel to the Devil's Run was made of their own accord. Like you, the people of Porta Denia, we wish this incident had never taken place. That is why Peter Hastings has personally announced that he will be giving out a five hundred grand reward to any airship captain and crew that can travel into the Devil's Run and return safely with Captain Donovan and the crew of the Red Barron.
