Whispers at the Fire
-
Arthur is seen speaking briefly to Romulus before Ashena and Talindra get back in then slipping away on his own.
-
Rumour speaks of Tymora's least favourite Norwick scout, Bela, having gone missing in the line of duty once again. A search party set out under Cecil's command, returning days later, battered and bruised, but alive. Warnings about the Goblin Hold may spread, the place described as a beehive best left unpoked by any but the well prepared and able.
-
Cecil takes the chance to examine them, comparing them to his notes from his last successful excursion in finding better-than-usual arms and armors from hobs and the like.
(Please PM me details. Thx!)

A well armed and armored party was seen entering Norwick's South Gate late last night. Troff Legion soldiers Romulus and Eregor, the dwarf Gnarl, and the heroic Jake were among them. Shadowy scouts Danika and Yndgir followed them inside, but made no comment on what they had found.
The other four appeared to be dividing up spoils, and were overheard describing how they fought bugbear archers and shadowstalkers inside the Goblin Hold. Dark studded leather armors and some dark swords were shown. Is this the evidence that Guard Captain Cecil was searching for? Are the bugbears and goblinoids once again uniting to threaten Norwick?

Five adventureres, mostly wounded, were seen entering South Gate and collapsing around the fire late at night. "We were ambushed in the eastern Rawlingwoods by dozens and dozens of hobgoblins!" they were heard to say. "Luckily Gnarl and Jake killed the biggest ones, berzerkers and scouts."
The druid Aoth asked Legion Scout Romulus if it looked to him like an organized double ambush. Romulus agreed that it did. One large group of well-armed hobbers was waiting in ambush in the eastern woods, and while the party was engaged with them, another large body moved in behind to cut off their retreat. Luckily, it was very dark and the party worked in open formation without lights since they had only one front-line fighter. They survived both ambushes and made it back safely.
The mage Varia dropped a heavy brass scale armor on the ground that she took from one of the bodies. She also found a troll-made talisman. Romulus took them to the Norwick Scout Commandant's office and passed the word for Cecil to examine them when he gets a chance.

Cecil has been mentioning to anyone who will listen, to keep an eye out for well equipped goblins, possibly even in plate! He cautions to assess your foes wisely before engaging, and not to bite off more than you can chew. Things may shape up to be a little different in the Rawlins, if rumors prove true.

::Approximately two tendays after having departed Norwick, the Defender of Peltarch is seen leaving the Temple of Lathander with María of the Spellweaver. They look to be in quite misserable state, armors dented and robes ragged, but they appear to be alive and well. The Defender takes her mare after offering another generous tip to the boy that had been taking care of it and gallops back north, with a lighter pack, but a few extra scrolls and maps rolled under her arm::
-
::A fine mare gallops into Norwick carrying the crimson armored Defender of Peltarch, Shallyah. She seems to be in a hurry as she finds one bored-looking farmer boy and drops a generous amount of gold coins on his hand before giving him some instructions, and then walks southwards hurriedly. She was seen leaving into the Rawlinswoods one tenday ago and is yet to return, while her mare keeps being cared for by the boy that now spends his afternoons playing next to it with a good lot of new shiny toys::
-
_Rumor is that the High Priest of Torm Shannon D'arneau and Headmistress of the Spelweaver María were seen sitting in front of another by the south fire. What's more unbelievable… they were ......
......
.....
talking!_
-
A half elven lass with very long fiery red hair has been seen often around Norwick of late. She's been speaking with the guards at length and though her common is broken, they seem to have lengthy conversations. Some say she's been asking about being a Scout for Norwick, and who to speak to about it.
((Not sure who to approach with that, please PM me if you know.
))
-
_Things seem to have been fairly quiet around Norwick for a while… but one day, the peace is broken by screams of horror coming from the Rawlins. Anyone who investigates would find the hobgoblins hiding in corners, gibbering about a massive rock monster, those that survived, anyway.
If the investigator continued, they would find the Harbinger Mines briefly evacuated, with bugbear bodies littering the area, and any traces of ore missing, along with a chunk of the tainted stone.
What could have caused such mayhem and chaos?_
-
No one knows why, but the city's militia and the Raumviri have increased the number of guards on the gates and walls of town.
Whenever asked the reason behind this, the guards mutter and grumble. Sometimes, one complains clearly about "some bloody adventurers that are scared of litle goblins".
-
Elidor comes out, peeking.
"Hey, It's you, pretty-face"
Then he explains her that they are already talking about her and that he will contact her shortly. Throws her an apple "For the wait".
-
lisa knocks on the union hall doors and waits for someone to answer, when someone does she firstly asks how she can join the guild, secondly who she can buy a crafted bow from.
-
Danika's bright smile has become a common - if unpredictable - sight around town once again. She's sometimes seen approaching adventurers or the militia's scouts with an apple and a quiet word or two. After a cat nap by the fire she inevitably disappears south of the gate once more.
-
Rumors say a golden lock red cloaked mage is walking around in the, currently rather quite, town of Norwick.
She is showing merchants, barmaids and peasants a burnt note asking for clues or answers to what it means.

Cecil has been asking around about shields, as he is currently in the market for an improved version of what he has, which is a great big Cormyrian Greatshield.
Any crafters who are handy at making a high quality, enchantable shield, may want to look him up.
-
A tall, dark-haired woman clad in red, silver, and black was seen strolling about town. Could it be?
-
At the Grapevine, a group of fresh faces (and at least one ancient one) were overheard discussing religion, gadgets and gizmos, the recent destruction of some magic artifact, and… pants?
