Bandits Beware



  • _After more reports of caravan attacks, Chief Bron of clan Orel gathers a dozen of his clansmen and stomp out onto the Nars Pass with a fierce determination. They are gone the entire day, mostly seen combing the forests along the Pass, but return just before dawn marching through the North gate dragging three dirty, beaten men chained together in a line. One old man in particular has trouble keeping his footing.

    They are immediately taken into custody, and after a short exchange between Davos and chief Bron, the bandits are dragged up to the gallows.

    The men each sob for their lives and exclaim their innocence as the noose is pulled tight around their necks, all but the old man, who simply keeps his head lowered throughout the procedure.

    One by one, a lever is pulled by a masked Orel clansmen and the bandits drop from where they stood with a sickening crack._



  • A man with a ponytail is seen handing gold and food to some of the beggars, and then shooting dice behind the Grapevine, presumably losing huge amounts of coin.



  • Shesarai and Silver were heard talking outside the Grapevine. Silver seemed concerned by the beggar in front of the Inn who claimed he was just a poor fellow down on his luck. Shesarai pointed to the crap game going on behind the inn with a few gamblers and loose women of the night. "That's disgusting" she was heard to say. The two then went off to the north to search for bandits.

  • _Despite the warnings, banditry has only seemed to increase in Norwick and the Nars Pass north of the town. Reports of attacks come in everyday. Horses stolen, lumber and wheat caravans raided and plundered. The bandits are ruthless and ambush without mercy, leaving merchants and traders unwilling to risk moving thier wares from the town without proper protection.

    In response, Davos has declared there to be a standing reward of 100 gold pieces for every bandit that is brought in alive, and 25 gold pieces for every scalp_

    Brumir offers a glare in Grobbles direction, then approaches him

    "Ye know wut, dis time ye shove yerself ta da ground ye lil fark."



  • Locals and others who frequent the Grapevine report troubling changes that seem to have overtaken that old inn. "There's a lot of rowdy, gruff-looking folk in there now, and a Raumviri armed guard is on duty lookin' after em."

    A well-known red-haired cleric was seen yesterday looking around behind the inn and coming down from the hill back there with muddy boots. "What's going on?" some asked. But she didn't answer and went on her way.
