      Report Freeform: Entered mountain complex through southern access point. Clear signs of recent fire on floor, walls and ceiling. Simple tunnel access leads into the main complex, sealed door breached 80 meters from the end of the tunnel, traced to forcefield. Sealed door 10 meters from the end of the tunnel traced to massive storage facility, empty. Main facility shows clear signs of a recent fire and damage from an undetermined source. Our first encounter with wolves at shipping/receiving area, 2 friendly casualties 7 enemy casualties. Primary objective located but we were unable to deactivate forcefield locally. Control centre located and main power restored. Forcefield controls were accessed and contamination protocols were deactivated. We returned to retrieve the lightsabers beyond the now deactivated forcefield. Following hallway leads to another mineshaft of similar design and layout. After further scouting it was discovered that there are in total three mining shafts, all linked together. Evidence suggests mining lasers were produced inside the facility. Several storage areas were found, most of them empty. Second encounter with wolves at main shaft elevators. One enemy casualty only as the enemy stood down after the appearance of a bird suspected to be a watcher, not confirmed. Elevators deemed structurally unsafe and therefore not used. Service ladders were located and used to access lower levels. Large serpentine creature was located next to a massive damaged ventilation system. It appeared dormant at first glance but turned out to be active. It is a fast moving creature with an estimated length of between thirty five and forty meters, estimated twelve to fifteen meters in diameter. Measurements unconfirmed. Large spikes in a scale like formation identifies the creature, composition unknown. Weapons ineffective against spikes/scales. Two friendly casualties during exfiltration of lower levels. Unable to fully scout lower levels due to the creature.
    Evalutation: Mission is evaluated to be an acceptable success. All operatives performed well and as expected. Intel was accurate, equipment sufficient.
    Recommendations: The recommendation is to condemn the mountain complex and restrict access to it for security reasons. The whole complex has taken severe damage and several key structural points show signs of stress and wear. The condition is critical and the complex could collapse.
