Rumors heard throughout Oscura.
-
A blond haired, golden skinned elf with a meloncholy expression can be seen exploring the region, it is quite obvious she has never been there before.
-
Glunk has been seen wandering the streets of Oscura, trying to wear down a new pair of shiny leather boots.
Those who ask him about it get a shrug in reply, but he nonetheless continues doing so.
Every now and then he stamps his feet, grimaces a little, and continues on his walking.
Those with good eyesight might catch a glimpse of some fine material poking out of his backpack.
-
A swirling gust of wind blows up and seems to cyclone a moment startling everyone there before a voice speaks out from the wind..
Greetings and salutations. Feel free to join the festivites celebrating the marriage of Parsley Tealeaf and Peppy Twiddlefingers this week ((Monday 10pm Eastern)) at the Sisterhood in Jiyyd.
almost immediately the wind dies down and quiets out, leaving people with a surprised and confused look to their face.
-
Something seems to follow the man, eminating an 'evil' aura. Those with keen eyesight may notice the hazy outline of a man in platemail following the man. Every once in a while, the spectre rubs his bald pate.
-
_From the depths of the Oscuran Undercity a seldom seen figure trudges out. The man, or what's left of him, has sunken features. His skin is pale, almost white. He walks with a hunch and poor posture; his head is completely bald. While typically obscured by a black and gray cloak, those that catch a glimpse of his face could swear that he wasn't more than 40 years of age.
The figure carries a large pack along with a handful of books, and walks with more strength than his crooked appearance lets on. He proceeds to the city's library, and instead of emerging with a new stack, as has been his routine for years, he steps out a short while later with his hands unburdened. Already more seen now by the denizens of the upper city than they have seen him in years, the man stops at the first merchant he happens across and drops the pack to the ground with a satisfying thud. The hunched figure then quickly pawns off most of the items in the bag. He forgoes haggling, and has little care of the price he receives. One item of note was a small, ornate lute that was in almost pristine condition, but it too was sold with little care for the price and certainly no regrets for the loss of the item. With his pack now substantially lighter he heads off to complete one final task, and delivers a single letter to a post courier.
The decrypted looking man then heads for the docks, and with nary a look behind him or a goodbye to anyone he boards a boat…and is perhaps never to be seen again._
-
A hinnish Legion soldier was seen asking around Oscura. The name Grag was mentioned a few times raising a few eyebrows. The corporal and his recruit fled Oscura after getting in a fist fight with a homeless man.
-
Glunk has been seen, making somewhat of a spectacle of himself at the well of souls in Oscura, kneeling before it in prayer.
He doesn't move from the spot for a week, praying constantly and fervently. Occassionally he pulls out a ritualistic dagger and slashes his skin, bleeding openly into the well.
As the week continues, he becomes weaker and weaker, and more delirious, until he eventually collapses from exhaustion.
-
Glunk can be seen talking to members of the town guard, seemingly with something he feels is important to share.
_Dere's dese obelisk fings sprouting up outside, dere's one in da pass, one up near Peltarch, an' a few more down near Norwick an' Jiyyd from what I hears. Dey seem to be connected to da demonspawns dat been roaming round recently, dey showing up in da places where da demons been coming from. If yoo puts a dead body on dem, dey gets raised as Undead too. So it all fishy to me.
Keeps an eye out, an' if any gets found down heres, mebbe dey shoulds be investigated._

In a few not so terribly dark corners of Oscura a few posters advertise:
@1a96fa2b2a=[size=18:1a96fa2b2a:
((If there's fees to be paid for the posters, please contact me, so I can pay them. Thanks
))
-
Glunk can be seen moving around Oscura quite a bit. First to the tailors, then to a jewellers, then he heads into the undercity, not emerging for several hours.
When he comes out, there are whispers of a wedding, of building plans, and perhaps a new shop for Oscura.
-
An usually cheerful, half-orc female, dressed in red and black is seen going in and out of the seamstress' shop several times a day, dress shopping. Inside, she is heard speaking with the proprietor about a special wedding gown. More often than not, she complains that the dress presented to her is not quite right.
-
Someone recently mentioned an argument they got to overhear in town, between a blooded he called Mora and a group of three adventurers.
There were lots of questions, mainly from the single person, which were answered several times, mostly with annoyance. Insults flew as well, a fellow in brown and rust toned armor slinging them mostly, seeming annoyed to the point of wanting to strike their questioned.
The two men and the woman made one point clear, however.
The woman is a blooded, and thusly, they had the right to do what they did, and did not wish to be harassed.No blows were traded, but the fellow in the rust and brown looked ready to start it right then.
-
A certain large half-orc, wearing blue and black armor has been seen spending a lot of time in the temple, worshipping at the neutral shrine. Those who approach him hear him calling out in Orcish to Garagos.
Seems he's looking for guidance.
-
Peoples arond see one of the elven peacekeeper carriing a elf lady whit full blood on her… The peacekeeper enter in the Tower and we didn'T see them after..but.. the peacekeeper come out alone...
-
A merry group of Gypsies passed through the dark streets of Oscura recently, in the company of a panther, a man in heavy, red and black armour and a half-orc woman with strikingly long fingernails. As the group made their way west, snippets of the excited conversation could be overheard, mostly regarding the search for a rare and fabled race of aquatic giants. If one was to believe the white-haired young Gypsy, these so called "gillants" are most likely to be found in deep, cold and remote underground lakes, but inspite of a lenghty expedition, it would seem the search drew a blank.. this time.
-
peoples talk about peacekeeper arond looking for gnomes who maybe find a way to enter in town and stoel the Oscura key…Some said Mora .one of the peacekeeper offer golds for info can help to find tthem and get the key back.
-
Rumour has it that a certain large humanoid, armored in blue and black has been pacing the streets for a tenday, seemingly looking for something or someone. When approached, he tends to ignore the intentions of those around him, and can be heard muttering something about "The well" and occasional mentions of "Will of the war lord"
-
Rumour has it something foul and odious resurfaced recently, as several sightings of the one and only dwarven priestess of Umberlee are reported from the docks of the underground city. After trading a range of mostly incomprehensible sailorly cusses, insults and possibly threats with previous crewmates Drelan Ashire and Sabre Seesaw of the Black Sails, Mercy waddled back onto a nearby vessel, once more floating off to destinations unknown. A fuming captain Ashire and his infinitely more amused looking lieutenant took off soon thereafter, heading west.
-
Drelan can be seen asking about the where abouts of Mary since she seems to be lacking from her usual haunts.
-
From the shadows a helmed elven woman watches the newcomer curiously. She makes no move towards the newcomer just observes.
