Tavern Rumors of Peltarch
-
_Rumour spreads of tangled web of lovers that a certain elven "artist" has, after a scene of professions of love and kissing in the Commons. One lass even burst into tears and ran off, after he declared that he was in love with another.
Was it real? Was it a joke? Perhaps a performance? Who knows?_
-
Raúl is seen a bit over-excited lately, he's always moving here and there and he has a bright smile on his face
-
Labur is seen talking to others in the commons and gaurds around the city looking for Murk to give him back his fine warhammer, he we nice enough to let him borrow.
-
After returning from the trip it appears that Elidur has been spending a lot of time in the Dancing Mermaid inn, sipping his favorite red from a very kingly golden-goblet - and looking overly proud to be doing so!
-
_Rumours might speak of an unusually large group gathering at the commons, where the god-touched entity of chaos and magic known as Leanna appeared to whisk them away, presumably to somewhere in the Glaciers. Cerulean Knight Lycka and her mother Ragnhild appeared to be central figures in the group, both women uncharacteristically grim-looking. Aiding the two were several members of the druid circle, Senator Ronan Redralen, Cerulean Knight Kenton Seth, seasoned fighters Horbag Hurkink, Albryanna and Tomohiro, the artist known as Elidur Ginen and gastrognomic sharpshooter Perriwig P. Doubleday.
A couple of days later, the group returns with Leanna's aid once more, bright lights and bursts of sound erupting in the Mermaid. That is, they all return except Ragnhild. Word has it that the spear-weilding warrioress fell in battle in her northern homelands, protecting her tribe from annihilation._
-
Rumour goes around about a public appearance by Elder Senator Rath Ashald in the commons, where he attempted to employ a bard to ruin the name of another Senator. Rath was sent packing by the bard in question, a pretty young thing, who refused to break her honour for coin.

((Keep it to just rumours please folks, there's a separate thread for public speeches, cheers)).

Vladimir Kursk who just happened to be there, and will happily tell any who he hears talking on the matter..
"_Well, it really doesnt matter.. Oscura arnt loseing anything at all. Most of Osucras imports are done from outside of Narfell.
Peltarch still send goods to Oscura but they are not cruical. It is Peltarch who are basicly econimcly about to destroy themselves..
Besides, from what i hear the senate has even less influance than i thought beofre… Peltarch goods still are being sold in Oscura. Seems the senates silly little tiffe has actully made no effect, the guilds clearly dont seem to care."_

Marty retorts
Friends? Trade between Oscura and Peltarch was based on assurances Oscura made to us that it has since clearly stated it has no intention of upholding. Oscura ended it's trade agreement with Peltarch through it's stubborn refusal to live up to it's end of the bargain it made with us.
If Oscura wishes to enter into another trade agreement with Peltarch - one it actually intends to uphold - then we are more than happy to talk about it.
-
Drelan is seen far more often in Peltarch now that he's heard the decision. He can only be heard often saying,
"I cannot believe that the city that rose from the ashes in part to Oscuran stone and resources would now perform this act to its friend and all in its city that benefit from such commerce. And yet they instead choose to threat their neighbors like an enemy. It is their prerogative I suppose. shrugs I just hope they actually discussed it with their citizens."
-
Strange happenings and bursts of light coming from the beaches of the Icelace drew a gathering of adventurers, that returned some hours later, worn and beaten. Seems no true cause was discovered, though there is mention of many powerful undead.
-
One of the waitresses at the Dancing Mermaid inquires a regular customer why he's not ordering ale with his meal as usual. "I gotta cut back on the ale, lass. I had a bad hangover the other mornin'. I swear I saw some woman in the corner durin' mass, but she weren't there when I took a closer look. The priests said that they got magics up to protect the place. That ale must be making me see funny."
-
The Chancellor of the Mighty Realm Norwick has been seen in Peltarchj for the last ten-day or so. Word has it that he and his trusted Advisors are having their somewhat-annual meetings with the senate, and that the issue of Oscuran relations was certainly one that was discussed in the meetings.
Other than traveling between his Extermination store in the western side of town and the Senate meetings, he doesn't make many public appearances.
-
Aramuil Holimion has been seen more often in the city of Peltarch, simply quietly observing the tenseness of the city…he seems to spend a lot of time near the Seafarers' various buildings...why nobody seems to know.
-
_After another tense series of deliberations, the Senate of Peltarch has decided to sever trade ties with the City of Oscura. As word of this decision filtered out of City Hall, over the next few days tensions show signs of rising, particularly in the docks.
Lord Chadwick Whyte has called yet again for an extraordinary meeting of the League of Guilds where a response to the decision will be decided by the leaders of Peltarchan commerce. Many people in the docks wait with bated breath for the outcome of said meeting, where the League is expected to publically refuse to abide by the decision of the Senate in an unprecedented fashion.
Guards are already feeling the strain of overtime, as they are pulled from other districts into the Docks by Captain Fortescue, wary of riots breaking out.
Rumours begin to spread around the city that the messenger City Hall choose to send to Oscura to inform their mysterious Tribunal of the decision, was murdered before he could even leave the City Walls._

Rumours from recently arrived caravan guards speak that upon the road to Peltarch they witnessed some dark rite taking place for all to see by the old stones by the Ridge. Whatever was happening the caravan master made good speed to get away from the scene. Some of the guards speak of four darkly armoured knights standing vigil of the rites as twisted foul magics filled the air….some speak that they saw the dead rise and walk in lurching steps from an alter near the stones…..
-
A group of adventurers were seen to head into sewers, talking about going to hunt down some undead. Some hours later one member of this group was seen returning to surface, carrying crying baby girl, taking it to orphanage. Later on, rest of the party also surfaced bringing another baby girl to surface.
-
Word spreads that retired monk, Marie Scuttlestone and her husband Raul of the Defenders, are expecting their first child. It's still very early on, but Marie and Raul are delighted at the news.
-
Marty explains quite bluntly that it isn't a "handout". She may know who killed her.

Rumours spread like wildfire that the Lucky Ferret employee Nancy was found stabbed to death in a backalley in the docks.
The guard are looking into it apparentely, but word on the streets is that there were no witnesses nor any trace of who did it.
Marty lets the family and friends of Nancy know that she'd be more than willing to fund her resurection at the temple.
The only family Nancy seems to have is her son Jay, the Black Sail. He refuses any handouts, and not in the politest of ways..
