::New rumours heard in the Mermaid::
-
While wondering through Peltarch asking everybody she meets if they have seen or heard anything on Zanetar, Nicahh stumbles upon Gildor, hoping she can help. Seeing Gildor impersonating a tree, Nicahh decides to help the deranged elf instead. Leaving Peltarch for a few hours she comes back holding two small apple tree branches. Sliding them up Gildor's sleeve she smiles at the elf as she places apples around her feet. Nudging Locrian she points to Gildor:
See, you complain I never do anything to help anybody. I helped her.
Snickering to herself, she wonders off, still asking around about her missing Zanetar.
Daria Arndon - A sweet little bard.
Fadien Blackwood - Baby sister of the Blackwood Family
Nicahh - Deserted!
-
Evendur has been frequently seen about the city in the company of a Peltarch Defender wearing a purple sash on his belt. Rumors place the soldier's name as Danerk, and he apparently serves some sort of bodyguard role.
-
Nate sees Gildor as he passes by, taking a bite from an apple. He chuckles and swallows after a few quiet chews.
"Keep up the good work!"
He calls with an amused smile before taking another bite and walking off chuckling lightly.
-
_Gildor has recently been seen all around town, impersonating a tree.
Many suspect that the madness of the elf has reached new heights, as she is often seen standing in Rath's park or the commons, with her arms stretched out and fingers spread, swaying left and right, while occasionally going "tweek tweek" and " rustle rustle " and even a long deep "oooooooooo" throat sounds._
-
_Word goes around that a mage of great power appeared in the commons recently, shouting incoherently about Keram and old promises. Keram and Roland both attempted to fight him off, but seemed powerless against his magics. The mage disappeared before more guards could arrive.
Rumours also fly about the recent murder of Wavebreaker guildmaster Silas Hildebrand. Captain Dunderstone was seen in the commons looking for information and fuming about the chaos in the docks._
-
_There have been reports of a series of standoffs taking place in the Peltarch commons not long ago.
The first was apparently between Senator Evendur Mildsilver, flanked by Anakore, Kalina, and Nate of the Cerulean Knights, and a group of armed mercenaries who were initially unresponsive to his requests that they lower their weapons. A woman, who seemed to be with them, eventually acquiesced to the Senator's firm demands.
Another standoff supposedly came between Senators Mildsilver and Brynmor and a group of Defenders who had refused to assist Senator Mildsilver in the previous situation. Rumors abound of startling insubordination by the Defenders. The situation appeared to be defused, however, when a higher-ranking officer showed up and the rebel Defenders departed. The officer left the commons in the company of both Senators._

A clean and washed off Nate chuckles, rolling his eyes over at Zyph's comment, sitting on the bench's and washing off his still charred armor with a wet rag.
-
Zyphlin hears the rumors and gives a small little chuckle
How many powder kegs does it take to finally silence a bard? Apparently more then 10
He smirks a bit as he heads off musing at the horrible joke and rubbing the burn mark still on his neck

<vino>citizens report a strange earthquake which shakes a number of buildings in the dock, there are also complaints of smoke rising from the sewer grates for a couple of hours after
Some blame wizards but most blame bards.</vino>
-
Anna Sigerlson can be seen often running about town with the Paladin Mariston Thel laughing and joking and stealing kisses when no one is looking or they think no one is looking. She is also seen walking with Alice Marrian from school on occasion and reviewing her lessons with her.
She seems happier than many have seen her in years. She can often be seen headed south to visit with Vashere and minister to the spiritual needs of his troops in honor of the Red Lady.
-
Syne has been mostly out of the public eye. He is seen infrequently at the Mermaid and the Ferret, enjoying a quiet drink and a smoke. He has settled back into the position of "backbone" Senator, doing all the paperwork and day to day negotiations that some of the other senators are loathe to do.
-
Dang can be seen out and about being very polite to the passing commoner, who usualy recalls the stories they have heard about him torturing and murdering several children and young women around the city. The old records of his deeds appeared to have been burned away. Many dislike this. He thinks it's "cool".
-
Nico has been seen in the company of a large half-orc lately. Appearantly he has a new bodyguard. Rumor has it that he paid for the bodyguard to move into the city and keeps him close at hand. Nico seems to be a slight bit more relaxed these days and has been spending a lot of time with Yolande lately.
-
Luitenant Senella is apparantly spending alot of time going to and fro between the Cerulean HQ, the College and City Hall, usually assisted by various youngsters from the College carrying books and parchments for her. What she is doing is anyone's guess, but the main trait these three places seem to share is their Libraries.
-
Alice Marrian's schooling appears to be going very well. Her teacher is impressed with the young woman's quick mind. Alice has also taken an interest in learning about the Red Knight, studying about the goddess of strategy in her spare time. While she has been seen talking to others, Alice appears to still be painfully shy, and especially fearful of large men.
-
Evendur has been seen more frequently than usual around the docks district. Word has it that he has been making some kind of subtle inquiry, but its nature is utterly unknown to the masses. If for some reason he is questioned about this behavior, he makes use of his senatorial prerogative in refusing to respond with anything more than vague platitudes.

<<crap>></crap>

Nate, after seeing Nico's body being carried, followed Sam and waited outside the temple until Nico exited. After making sure the Senator was alright, he wandered off towards the bard college with a pondering look.
-
_Some people are talking around Peltarch about seeing the large man known as Sam carrying a seemingly lifeless Nico Black through the streets rushing toward the Temple. Sam carried the body into the temple and soon Yolande was seen rushing through the streets after hearing of her fallen husband. Sam then left the temple and back through the streets not long after entering. Only this time he didn't have the Senator's body.
Loud noises could be heard inside the temple some time later. Some said that Miss Daisy was heard to be screaming for Nico to be gone from the temple. Soon after a very much animated and moving Nico Black and his wife, Yolande Black, could be seen bursting through the doors of the temple. A dark cloud of what appeared to be smoke could be seen behind them in the temple as he pratically fell down the stairs leading to the street. The Senator could be seen breathing heavy and still covered in some amount of blood. The husband and wife could be seen rushing through the streets afterwords. Nico leaning on Yolande for support as they headed to the Boarshead Inn… Nico hasn't been seen publically since, though it is appearant the Senator wasn't harmed as bad as originally thought.
The temple was not harmed and Miss Daisy insists he had a brush with some bad things is all._
-
Anna Sigerlson can be seen speaking with Daisy and leaving the temple of Tyr with a stack of books. The next morning she is seen walking the young girl Alice Marrian to the temple and wishing her to have a good day. Word has it she has enrolled the young lady in the temple school.
