Rumors heard throughout Oscura.
-
The redhaired woman, some recognize as the winner of the tournament, was seen running through Oscura, screaming in fear. Later on she was carried under an elven monk's direction to the inn, her legs stabilized by some wooden sticks, while the redhead kept whimpering softly about souls and demons. The elf and the woman spent a good while at the inn, and much later, the redhead is seen leaving, still walking a bit uneasily on her legs.

The lifeless body if Arikess the mage, and guard of Peltarch was dragged to the city surface by Chaevre' Vaelen, though not dead his life energy seemed to have been drained from him almost entirely, Chaevre' seemed to have dumped his body and then returned to the undercity.

_Rumors spread about a tournament in the Brawling Bodak, with participants coming from everywhere in Narfell to match their skills. Barbarian women, halflings, fully armored knights, clerics and even dwarves were seen at the arena. It is said that through a display of fine swordmanship a red-haired woman of the Sisterhood and the Guardians bested those she was pitted against. Even though three people bet on her oponent and only she herself placed a bid on her behalf, she defeated the other warrior, securing herself a price of two-thousand gold.
However, she proved to be quite unable to claim the title of champion which Llars defended in a short paced battle that left the remaining visitors speechless. The woman they had seen stand through a long fights before, was down before the fight had really begun. People fearing they might have to give the title of arena champion to a mere student of Peltarch's Fighter Academy breathed out a sigh of relief. In the words of the redhead, she had yet to learn how to fight, before she could cross blades with Llars.
Furthermore it seems the poor, beaten woman didn't even get the debtors of the bets against her to pay and was later seen being dragged, utterly drunk as some people gossip, to a room at the Copper where she spent a good while, snoring off her drunkeness._

Rumors spread that several undead were seen in the sandy pass before the bridges into Oscura, consisting mainly of skeletons that shot magical missles at the small group of adventurers. They were quickly taken down. Curiously enough, a human assassin was seen amongst the group of undead and it is rumored he was seen stalking after Nicahh before his escape, although she says she thinks he was just after anyone to kill.

The sounds of construction seem to be fading away as it seems the SkullKrusher dwarves are nearing the end of their project on the west side of Oscura. The area has been heavily restricted, but many whisper about a bridge spanning a chasm, not unlike the one in the Raven Rift.
-
nickolai and a tatooed man were seen speaking in the shiney coppers… though it was hushed nickolai appeared quite amused.

_Dwin, Pete, Ginger and Rugg'var are witnessed by two commoners as they enter the township dragging along a large sled of copper ore. The town was observed to be painted in blood and found to be abandoned. These two commoners were actually the masters of a caravan of sorts which had made its way to the township and likewise discovered the strange spectacle of an empty town bathed in blood.
The ore was off-loaded in the barn and a dispatch sent to General Grag informing him of the ores location so he could see to it's delivery to the legion._

Rumor spreads that the Chancellor of Norwick was seen leading Tolin, Nickolai and Nicahh into the caverns surrounding Oscura. It is rumored they were hunting grey dwarves to recover a stolen item they had taken from the shrine of Lathandar in Norwick. The four are seen entering the caves, yet only one was seen emerging from them only hours later and he came out grumbling about meeting Rando in the caves. Days had passed and yet none of the adventurers were seen leaving the caverns.

A man in an obsidian robe has been spotted spending days at a time in the Oscuran library. Judging from his choice of books, it seems he is performing research into the demonic, and related topics.

_An injured dwarf in dented silver armor and a large babbling half orc who looked to be in even worse shape were seen exiting the Entrance to the Kuo Toa caves carrying a large quantity of ore and some Duergar trophies.
Before leaving, there was a long conversation through a fissure in the cave wall with some of the dwarves that are busying themselves with the bridge construction.
Promises of future ales to be bought for each other were made, and the injured dwarf was heard commenting that he would like to follow up and see what assistance he and his kin can offer to the effort._
-
Rumor has it that the dark stranger has been seen more frequently as of late. Some say are in the city looking for someone, some say they are just passing though. When approached they simply nod and move on their way, never speaking. Some claim to have seen them packing a large morningstar at their side, but no one can be sure.
