::New rumours heard in the Mermaid::



  • Miss Nyda's softly smiling presence in the city seems to have been marred by some kind of recent occurrence. No-one seems to know much about it except that she seems deeply stressed and can be heard muttering to herself about something, often sitting as she usually does gazing at her hands in her lap, but with an expression some say of fear, others of hate.



  • After returning from the foothills Mariston Thel can be heard discussing "odd blue or red kobolds" and talk of a mage seeking revenge. He seems quite puzzled by his encounter.



  • For the first time in over a year, Ginger Tealeaf is seen in Peltarch. She's asking around the Bard College, the Commons, and the Mermaid for Zyphlin and Mirkali. Folks would note that she seems distressed, as if something weighs heavily on her mind.



  • A young man, wearing a black and yellow sash around his waist and a crossbow always within reach, simply snorts at the young woman's words, muttering something like "as with the orcish warband?", then shakes his head and walks off towards the docks bafore the conversation turns ugly



  • Two paladins and a woman return from the foothills speaking about how they followed a troll into a cave. Listening to the woman proves very difficult as she speaks of all things at once, telling how the troll likes cows more than halflings, that the halfling was almost eaten and that they need to find a cow and give it to trolls so that they get a lot of gold. Mostly she says it was a great excitement and a wonderful adventure and that she wished a bard would have been there to properly retell the grand tale of how they escaped from out of the trolls' lair, dodging deadly traps, rushing through hordes of small trained dogs and an army of huge rats.



  • Word spreads that the reputable bard and civil servant Eowiel Senella was slain to the south, a death which coincidentally occured mere days after the sundial in the commons was rent asunder by the blustering defender Rando. Many who knew the green haired elf speculate that this was clearly the reason fortune deserted her. Preparations for her funeral are said to be underway.



  • "I heard he sees ghosts, and has been hitting the bottle mighty hard lately cause of it."

    "Yer joshin!'"

    "Nay mate, someone got to that man, got to him good and proper. Right here." puts a finger to his temple "Gummed up the works they did."

    "Shame…"



  • _"I 'eard, I 'eard tha.. Senator snapped, aye.. tha he be all loony, and attacked the temple like a madman, tha.. tha they had to lock him up for his own safety"

    "naah"

    "oh yeah

    "naaah"

    "I 'eard, I 'eard tha.. the fellow in the neighbourin' cell says tha Senator has been heard talkin' to.. himself in his cell, tha.. when he isn' prayin'.. he be talkin' to.. some git called Archibald, though… there be nobody in his cell right,.. ya can see him mumblin' and trottin' about, like a madman I said, like a madman"

    "naah"

    "oh yeah.."

    "naaah"_



  • Upon hearing the news Sir Richard Luis face becomes somber as in shock at the news. His face turns white and appears to be in a daze. Once he recovers from the shock he crys out words of conspiracy and whatever the charges are they are not true.



  • Word spreads that Senator Brynmor has been arrested.



  • An attack by kobolds upon the city was thwarted, by the galant actions of the guard and several citezens and adventurers. A group who went to seek the source of the great number of kobolds, spoke of a highly skilled kobold who was able to hide and sneak very well and was incredibly skilled with its blades.



  • Sitting in the commons these past days citizens could hear the blue bard exclaim

    Have you heard of the coming Festival to the Fisher King, it should be a grand event! Food, entertainment, heros, what more could a person truly want for a good time. I hear its going to recognize many of the hero's of the Civil War and usher in a new age of prosperity for Peltarch. This thing is going to be remembered for years to come, I sure as hell know I'd not miss it for just about anything…



  • Rumors spread quickly about the night in the commons when it seemed that literally all hell had broken loose.

    "The dead walked! They came from the fires, eating everything in sight! Luckily the guards came and stopped it somehow."

    Names are whispered from table to table. "Anakore, Barrim, the city crier, the scary pale lady..Cha'something, that paladin Marty…the one that talks funny." amongst others.

    The people smile when they see a Cerulean walk by, they smile when they see the glint of gold and blue armor. The people smile and give thanks for having such dedicated and brave people living here in the Jewel of the Icelake.



  • Merum Faldenfare is seen scribbling out the sentence about biting balls off.
    "Sick people."-



  • Rolan has been seen around Peltarch in an extremely good mood of late, he has also been heard talking about a fire elemental of montrous size attacking him and Nicahh in the kobold lands. Some believe he had some strange spell cast on him and others think that he has lost his mind finally after walking into Peltarch covered in burn marks and almost dead, yet still acting as if nothing could make his day bad, even almost dying.



  • @af3a506e76=Katebush:

    Scrawled randomly on a wall 'Strike a mans arm he has another, bite a mans balls he'll be no father'

    Alejandra chuckles as she walks by, shaking her head with a smile.



  • Scrawled randomly on a wall 'Strike a mans arm he has another, bite a mans balls he'll be no father'



  • Sir Richard Luis and Squire Merum Faldenfare have been seen training in the foothills and on occassion for great period's of time. It has been heard of Sir Richard telling Squire Merum:
    "use your size to your advantage merum, Strike a mans arm he has another but strike his leg he can move no farther."



  • Other rumors say the flamboyant looking bard with the flaming rod was just hoping to follow in his master's footsteps to disprove some other…rumors...going around about him

    ((sorry i had to 😉 ))



  • Rumours likely spread that a man in ancient-looking goldish and black clothing with a glowing staff, along with a red-haired lithe elf woman were seen walking to the jailhouse willingly, but not coming out. Some would rumourmonger even more that it had to do with a thievery occuring earlier, but this is all rumour, afterall…
