I know right? It's a good thing we didn't just hand them a list of traitors and leave it be as some thought we should've. Could've went in any direction.

No. I looked in the White Howler tribebook and the Gift goes:
Howl of Healing (Level Five) — The White Howler tribe is closely knit, sharing a bond rivaled by few others. This tie allows them to channel healing in a fashion others can only aspire to.
System: The werewolf howls. The player spends one Gnosis point and makes an Intelligence + Expression roll (difficulty 7). Every White Howler (or their Kin) who can hear the howl heals one point of lethal, bashing, or aggravated damage per success. This howl cannot be amplified, communicated, or assisted through natural, artificial, or supernatural means, else it loses its effectiveness.
I think someone got it wrong when they put it up on Wyrmfoe.
Thanks for the edits. I'll put them in tomorrow, it is pretty late for me right now and I'm concerned I'll miss something or worse make new mistakes.

Lydia: Molly's pretty smooth. I could learn from her.

@DragonParadox Since only Namshiel was mentioned are we to take that to mean Molly only found one Denarian being involved with this when she used the Crown?
Lydia: Molly's pretty smooth. I could learn from her.
Also Lydia:
Remember when I said she does not see life and death the same way most people do? This is what I meant
Death is a doorway though which all must pass, sooner or later. For these four it is 'sooner', the judgement is clear and the blades are sharp, but they need not lose all of themselves to the hungry dark. What could be more reasonable?

Yep, she only pinged one, for what it's worth.
The next update will contain some more guesses from Tiffany, though she does not have much on him since such knowledge was not required for her main purpose.
EDIT: Edits have now been added, thanks @TheGrape

Fair I guess, but it seems unreasonable for people to just remember they had extra powers and resources around. If it didn't really cost them anything they couldn't afford to lose and they could do it on short notice why wouldn't they already be doing it?Yeah, it is almost like infernals popping out of the woodwork makes the other side up their game.
That said this is just a normal spell (as normal as a warlock's spell ever gets) . It is doing what Harry's shield bracelet does by other (creepier and harder to detect) means.

Strange, since they usually operate in teams. I wouldn't expect Denarians to be able to resist the Crown. Now I'm wondering why more aren't involved.
Most likely because they are risky or costly to use. One generally does not want to pay too much, when dealing with the kinds of things the Black Council dealt with all the more so.
Ok, unless this is a typo, this is actually a huge ultra deep lore piece. Two of them, really:
1) "Heir of Heir" - we already knew that Molly's exaltation's previous host went devil tiger. Now we are know that they are known to Outsiders as "Heir", capital H. Them being White God is too unlikely, but I can buy them being some sort of cosmological figure
2) Lydia is almost confirmed to be an attempt at recreating an exaltation, what with being called a "pale facsimile" of Molly. Goddamn, Kemmler was good.
Ah... that is in fact a typo, should have been Her, which means that whatever incarnation he was speaking of was a woman, but that is about all you got out of the horrifying monster before his mouthpiece was atomized.

Considering that all of this is happening at a very tight time for everyone not named Molly, especially for those who are used to planning for at least a month before acting, perhaps it is because he was the only Denarian with strong connections in the Black Council and Peabody called him urgently.
He then took advantage of this to enter the wizards' fortress, perhaps to steal something or get some forgotten information, the kind that wizards love to gather in hordes like dragons do with gold, and being in a tight and urgent situation he did not have time to call a reliable partner to help. Especially because perhaps he was counting on not being found in the confusion because it was necessary for Lash, who understands the Fallen and is very paranoid about this subject, to give the hunch that someone was stirring up this muddy water and Molly, with the greatest and only method of divination in all creation, to find him.
I'm curious, where the hell is Merlin? Did Peabody actually manage to kill or seal him?
I really hope we will not see the old werewolves thing with buckets of dice. They could go to something like 23 on their combat rolls.
I saw a build go 50 dice. But that was cheesey
Good night guys.

No honor among warlocks, indeed.
It's one thing to surrender in the heat of the moment, but another to stay surrendered and even act cooperative when your only reward still results in death. Interrogation of the warlocks could be useful or it could be a complete waste of time. I would bet on the latter.

Because ARM doesn't just work on books:
It is, in fact, also an instant interrogation technique as long as the person being interrogated cooperates.

Team B cant go looking for LaFortier, the Merlin or Thorned Namshiel while they have multiple POWs on hand in the form of Peabody and the captured warlocks.
So there's no real point to spending time doing interrogation here.
Get them to the Warden Barracks where there are spare guards, and where Molly can help with the interrogation.

Instantaneous interrogation for the win. It will tell us why Thorned Namshiel Is here and whether that is time sensitive or not. Stopping these warlocks while important doesn't really help us If Thorned is here trying to continue the work except melting it with hellfire, rather than shaking the foundations with Geomancy. Though if they're just trying to set up pockets for later infiltration attempts that's far more belated in how pressing the need to deal with that is.

I still want to know what they're trying to achieve with the dialogue. They're clearly trying to reach out to Lydia and then Molly. It's hardly just empty words. Sure, you can chalk it up to typical villain behavior, but I think they genuinely think they have an ace up their sleeve for arguments or some other forbidden knowledge. Which they might not sell, but use as a weapon.

It's rather unfortunate if Molly was around and we were willing we could just use the Crown to ask about whatever the hell they were referring to here and trying to use to mess with Lydia. Probably would've counted for the Urge too. I'm trying to find a way to ask but we don't have a recording through Clippy either.
All that wonderful lore wasted.

It's to be expected we were in the wicked city. Molly had the enemy home field advantage. It would have been odd if any fights there besides against M directly were hard.
Also fairly sure Lydia should get 2 essence she had multiple triggers this scene.
