Then what is your plan for how to proceed? Run into a likely defeat and pray that you can save him? Gather allies to help you? What will you do if you're too late, if you were already too late to begin with? A recorded message doesn't give much assurance that he's safe.

Find him, assess, get whatever allies we need. But the only way for us to make the right plan is to know exactly [i]what's[/i] going on.
