Rumors heard throughout Oscura.
-
The Peltarchian Senator known as Ronan Redralen was seen in Oscura, seemingly he was talking to Dirge near the well. He left some time later, heading into the Grim Bottle, leaving the shop with a rather annoyed look on his face. He then dissapeared, only to return to Dirge again for another talk about an hour later. What could this filthy, but rather good smelling surfacer be up to?

_A group of Legionnaires entered the city and dispersed through the streets, apparently in search of something or someone. Some were asked on the whereabouts of Vladimir during the search, perhaps he had something to do with all of it. After the search the Legionnaires regrouped by the main entrance to the city, where the most senior by rank - an Elf probably, dressed all in grey; is said to have scolded another for wasting his time.
Apparently, whatever the issue had been, was dropped from concern._

*A number of rumours start to cirtcu;late around Oscura..
The one on many togues is that after the hype of Jario and Balthaza wishing to speak.. It happened, many do not know what was said, yet Jario has still stayed behind the bar of the Shiney Coppers, seems torubles are done but he remains?
Another was an assination attempt! Few kknow the details but seems Ivan II Kursk was attacked in the undercity, saved just in time by his younger brother Vladimir, who seemed to know of the attack before hand. Vladimir has loudly been claiming it was the work of Antiganos Komnenos. Yet was it? How did he know of the attack? The darker amoung Oscura may think Vladimi had tryed to take the position of heir to the Kursk fortune by force, and got cold feet? Perhaps it was just a stunt to pin blame on the Komnenos? Or perhaps the Komnenos have finally given in with their honest attitdue?
Shortly after this Vladimir, and a group, including a number of the black sails were seen out heading into a storm on a black lotus boat. A few days later they returned, on what looks like a diffrent boat, with no sail or mast…........*
-
*And in other news the Well had been causing other [problems. A group saw strange gases rising from it, the smell unbareable, aswell as being able to shake, stun and confuse the onlookers, the well even caused physical damage to hose around it
It ended as quickly as it started*
-
_*Alot of dueling took place at the Bodak recently, a number of fights, many of which including the young noble swordsmen Vladimir Kursk.
Seemed fun was had by all!*_

It is unusual for anything to take the attention of the elf unless something quite out of the ordinary. In most cases, Eléndel takes the shortest path and walks with quick firm steps towards wherever his errand needs him. Today however, something does slow him down at first, before he stops completely to turn his head to face the bizarre paintings of a distorted Narfell for a long silent moment. Unsure what to make of it, he still offer Dirge a short something of what could be interpreted as a compliment and moves on with a sly smirk covering his face
-
Some strange (stranger than normal at least) events have been occurring around the Well of Souls of late. Dirge's paintings have consisted of nothing but a black cat, clear visions of a crying woman with strings attached to her limbs appear most of the time. After prolonged time with the Well though, the vision slowly turns into a bizarre tour of Narfell, everything not quite right. Norwick has strange altars to an unknown God scattered through its streets, Peltarch suffers under an unnatural sun and drought, Oscura is home to both Tormtars and Banites, the Pass is littered with dying fish on the ground. It's not clear why these visions are occurring…
-
A small group including Vladmir Kursk, railia, Rain, Hammerhand the merchant Alexi and a badger were seen returning to Oscura badly attacked, the badger seeming to be shalking slightly
-
Since his trip into the crypts, Vladimir has been seen in and around the temple of caverns alot more..
-
*Vladimir Kursk was seen hireing a small group of adventurers by the well, they headed down into the crypts and were gone a long time.
On there return, vladimir looking extremely bloody and pale was carried to the temple of caverns, barly alive. What did they find? who knows…..!*
-
Vladimir Kursk has been seen dragging all manner of alrge creatures, dead into Oscura. Some say he is still collecting meat and food incase of the Trade agreement with Peltarch collpasing, some say he is merely become a hunter of rare and large creatues. Some say he is building up an army of undead animals and creatures.
-
It seems things have been quiet in Oscura lately… is this the calm before the storm, or have things truly ended in peace?

Bandaged and bruised looking half-orc, sporting insignia of Iron Chain Clan has been recently visiting various inns within city. His coin-pouch is overly tight, as if tipping is totally unknown fact for him. He is also accompanied by a half-ork grunt, whose presence keeps various thugs and cutthroats in check, giving them understanding that this bandaged half-orc is not easy picking
Rumors say that he says that he offers a solution for those unfortunate slave owners, who possess excess and high cost and maintenance slaves during these hard times.
Activity keeps ongoing and apparently, bandaged half-orc with staff and broad gut is grudginly giving out some tips for any advice or contacts regarding the matter
Upright member of the Oscuran community, the peg-legged dwarf Mercy, goes in malicious search for this wounded half-orc, with witty, groin-taunting mischief in mind…

Jaelle was spotted in the Coppers having a quiet conversation with Drelan. It seems that the priestess is handing over her keys to the Sail's warehouse. Oddly, Drelan seemed rather uncomfortable and shifted constantly in his seat during the entire conversation and then followed the lass out of the Coppers.

The majority of Oscura, the slaves and lower classes, are believed those that will be hit the hardest, as feeding them becomes more expensive, more will die and the slave trade will increase as buyers focus on tough slaves able to survive off little, letting the weak ones die off.
Having given up with his efforts on the surface to convince the Surface city they are going to harm many more, Vladimir Kursk has spent that last few days leaving the city, bow in hand and returning carrying animals of all descriptions for food. Skins left at the trade hall, and the meat presumably being stock piled somewhere.
Ekmen Kyzanos has seemed to be acting very similarly, mostly concentrating his efforts to the slaves of the Red Dragon Consortium though, but still giving some share of it for others in need as well.

Vladimir Kursk has been seen around Oscura of late, with an extremely good mood. People are unsure of why, most seem to think it something to do with the troubles on the surface city, or perhaps a succsesful hunt. Eaither way he walks around the streets smieling to himself.
