HOW: We rolled a 3 out of the required 20/100, ouch, so this is not going to very well.
It will, however, be fairly uncomplicated and low key. Nell and the team she chooses can go about attempting to block the passage in any way they want—collapsing parts of it, trapping it to all hell, hiring mercenaries, or something else not yet imagined—with the caveat that as they are in the process of doing this, they will be discovered by an Antivan merchant caravan. The large kind, with guards.
One way or another, that caravan will know that they're with the Inquisition; they can have sent ahead a scout who listened in on them, already discovered and hassled the mercenaries for details, or hold them and threaten to take them back to Antiva (or, in fact, take them back to Antiva, and hold them until someone else from the Inquisition comes to bail them out while looking exasperated).
Needless to say, Antiva will be irritated. How irritated they are will depend on how much damage was done before the interruption, which is up to you; you can have already completely blocked off the passage if you want, at the expense of greater Antivan ire, or you can have them caught mid-magic like guilty kids, have them unset a lot of traps or tell the mercenaries that the deal is off, etc.
OOC NOTES: Since Nell is the only person assigned, she's in charge and can bring whoever she wants to assist. Since this could potentially affect Antiva's willingness to assist with the war, try to have a report filed by November 10.
