There are some inconsistencies related to the seige of Holtburg, the rescue by Celcynd, and the founding of Rithwic.

Children known to have been saved are:

• Flinrala Ryndmad
• Hardunna
• Worcer

Adults known to have been killed are:

• Brogord the Forester, father of Flinrala Ryndmad.<ref name=WorcersDialog />
• Mother of Worcer.<ref name=WorcersDialog /><ref name=WorcersRetiredDialog />
• Father of Worcer.<ref name=WorcersDialog /><ref name=WorcersRetiredDialog />

Adults assumed to have been killed are:

• Ryndya, mother of Flinrala Ryndmad.<ref name=LetterToRyndya>1999/11 Release - Brogord's Demise: Letter to Ryndya text</ref>
• Roland, father of Hardunna.<ref name=WorcersDialog /><ref name=HardunnasRetiredDialog />
• Hope, mother of Hardunna.<ref name=WorcersDialog /><ref name=HardunnasRetiredDialog />

Some sources say all the adults were killed.<ref name=HistoricalMarker /><ref name=HardunnasRetiredDialog /> Other sources say many (but not all) of the adults were killed,<ref name=HistoryOfAubereanVol5 /> or imply that some of the adults survived.<ref name=ACrabbedNote />

The age of the children is also somewhat unclear. Flinrala Ryndmad once said that, when her father was killed, she was just a babe in swaddling.<ref name=FlinralasRetiredDialog>1999/11 Release - Worcer's Missing Heirlooms: Flinrala Ryndmad's retired dialog</ref>
