In a shocking turn of events, a goblin was found in the Cathedral of Light catacombs. According to Corporal Gulram Dawnguard, a member of the Whiskey Guard Company, the goblin was discovered by a patrol while they were investigating a report of a disturbance. The Cathedral Chapter was informed and assisted in capturing the goblin.
According to Corporal Dawnguard, the goblin had no clothes or equipment and appeared to be a stray. Though the goblin initially seemed to be in a joking manner, the situation quickly changed, and Gulram Dawnguard describes the goblin as "savages the lot of them."
Thorard Dawnguard, a recruit of same guard copmpany and member of the patrol, described the goblin's behaviour as more mischievous and jokingly running wild, but did not pose a major threat.
Upon further investigation, it was discovered that this was not the first incident of infiltration at the Cathedral. I spoke with Vincent Haringoth of the Cathedral of Light, who stated that they had been finding multiple infiltrators attempting to enter the catacombs. The infiltrators have been of various races, including a Sin'dorei, and have been slipping in undetected.
When asked about the motives of these infiltrators, Vincent stated that they were hoping to "open a dialogue" with them, but that more often than not, the situation quickly devolves into a physical confrontation. He also revealed that the Sin'dorei infiltrator had been attacking denizens that venture to the Cathedral for solace, and had attempted to kill a Lightforged within the halls before trying to escape into the catacombs.

The question of whether these infiltrators are agents of the Horde or some other organization was raised, and Vincent stated that he wouldn't like to point fingers at the Horde, as they have been keeping to the peace. However, he did note that it does beg the question if they're tied to some Horde-centric faction or not.
In total, there have been two incidents of infiltration at the Cathedral of Light that have been reported, both involving races that are not members of the Alliance.
The story raises questions about security within the Cathedral of Light, and whether or not these infiltrations are tied to any larger, nefarious scheme. As the investigation continues, the Whiskey Company and the Cathedral Chapter will no doubt be working to uncover the truth and protect the sanctity of the Cathedral.
