Town Crier Announcements



  • The city's town criers are up at the break of day, heralding the stories and news to the people, they continue at noon and make their final announcements at dusk before heading home to their families. While most announcements would not concern the more adventurous inhabitants of the city, some are notable exceptions, and the Head Town Crier often throws in an amusing announcement or two herself.

    ((I decided it would be nice to air the commonplace day to day announcements of the city, who knows it might give people something new to talk about too 🙂 ))



  • Hear ye, Hear ye!

    With the untimely death of Elder Senator Rath Ashald, Senator Mariston Thel, our fair city's long time Senator takes the position of Elder Senator! May he continue to serve the city for years to come! Long live the Elder Senator! Long live the Jewel!



  • Hear ye, hear ye!

    My news today are most saddening.
    A few joustnights back, our beloved senator Rath Ashald fell in an attack.
    Carried to the Temple of Triad for healing, he was found to be dead.
    As always in his life, he fell down fighting for the freedom of Peltarchians.
    Born and died in Peltarch, the senator's legacy will not be forgotten
    Rath's assassins, if any are still alive, -will- be brought to justice
    Everyone is asked to spend a quiet moment in honour of the late senator.



  • Hear Ye, Hear Ye!

    In the wisdom born of his vast experience, General Lavindo has, under the power of martial law, RELEASED the members and associates of the Order of the Divine Shield, whose noble priests are now freed from tedious investigations and subject only to a divine truth test before they gallantly shirk any offense or bitterness to resume their courageous service unto our EMBATTLED City!

    In addition to this, the Defense of the Southern Watchtower is bolstered by those brave defenders of Jiyyd, the LEGION, whose efforts as they slowly yielded the Nars Pass northward to the N'Jast's advance have COST the enemy AT EVERY INCH GAINED! Their presence on the field in the coming battle will serve to show the VALUE of tenacity, courage and resolve of steel!

    Our Defenders have made their preparations at the Tower, our enemies are finishing theirs, and battle is expected to be joined ANY day now! To quote General Lavindo, our foes have tread a bloody path through Jiyyd and the Nars Pass, and before them lies naught but a BLOODY END to their ill-fated campaign!

    An army led by a woman who SWORE to defend the very city she aims to bring unto RUIN cannot hope to win, for there is only ONE end for Oathbreakers and those who follow them, and that is the damnation of the HELLS themselves!

    Remember Peltarch's brave defenders who stand watchful at the walls, your friends, your brothers, your sons and daughters brave, and in the morning come to hear their fate anew as we tell it to you true, no quicker source of news, shy of magic itself!

    Hear Ye, Hear Ye!



  • Hear ye, Hear Ye!

    You have heard of the FALL of couragous Jiyyd! Thanks to her gallant defenders, the enemy which continues its ABHORRENT campaign against this Jewel is not so CONFIDENT! Not so CERTAIN! Not so POWERFUL! They have been bruised, battered and bloodied on their way through what they MISTOOK for a small farming town that would capitulate before their so called "might"!

    They were proven sorely wrong at JIYYD! But such is their obstinance that they think they can continue! They DARE to think they can bring low this august City! Well, unlike our ARROGANT foes, Peltarch has learned well from the battle of Jiyyd! It has learned well the lessons of bravery, nobility and courage taught there!

    Our own Captain Neverith is returning to the City with his brave men who survived Jiyyd's fall, and the memories of those who did not! There were widows and orphans made here in this city on that dark day, but their heroism will be remembered!

    In other news from the battle, the once noble paladin Kara DuMonte has BETRAYED all oaths, loyalties and trust! Abandoning all that is good and true she has revealed herself to be the very face of the N'Jast army, leading it against the very city she SWORE to protect! General Lavindo and her Captain in the Defenders, Varid are said to be appalled at the revelation! Checks are being made within the defenders to ensure she was solitary in her defection, but Magistrate Barrim Asbavn has deemed the renowned Order of the Divine Shield, the most prominent religious order in the City to be the culprit, issuing warrents for arrests of their membership!

    What will become of these holy paragons!? Have they too fallen prey to treachery and betrayal? What of the noble Senator Thell and the Magistrate Shannon? What of the army marching towards us to the south? You know who to listen to for all these answers, as they come, every time!

    Hear Ye, Hear Ye!



  • Hear Ye, Hear Ye!

    Spare your thoughts today for the embattled township of Jiyyd and its noble plight, for today news from the pass has reached us that WAR has finally come to the land of Narfell once again! The humble town with an unyielding spirit stands valliantly against the foul WRATH of N'Jast as they begin their villainous crusade of GREED! Offered the paths of peace, the paths of cooperation, the paths of reconciliation these brigands and brutes did not e'en pause to CONSIDER afore giddily leaping upon the path of BLOODSHED!

    Even now battles and skirmishes rage as the enemy attempts to breach the walls of BRAVE Jiyyd! Even now her garrison of mecenaries, our own Captain Neverith and the stalwart Troff Legion holds firm and indomitable against the onslaught! So spare ye all your thoughts this day for bravery! Spare ye your thoughts for COURAGE! Spare ye your thoughts for Jiyyd!

    Hear Ye, Hear Ye!
