Tavern Rumors of Peltarch
-
Cray Vincint has been inquiring around the commons and local pubs about hiring a full time potion maker… He mentioned the position would include room and board. Interested applicants can drop a note through the mail slot of warehouse #2.
-
Rumors begin to circulate that the Consortium and all its assets and contracts are under negotiations to be liquidated. Nervous employees worrying about their futures are reassured by the senior management that the potential new owner(s) doesn't seem to make many staff changes. Nothing of course has been set in stone.

_The Black Sail, John Isle, is seen at the docks with gold sack that reads "10k" next to him. He stops every fisherman that comes to port, and offers to buy all of their fishes. Once the fisherman agrees, John baffles them even more by telling them to go dump the fish in water couple hundred feet north from the docks.
Each time the fishes are dumped in the ocean, a huge maw gulps it down._

Patrons of the Lucky Ferret Inn are sure to have noticed Cap'n Sabre's newest pet - and no, it's not some hapless moon-eyed man this time. In fact, the gender of the Cap'ns new favourite is rather hard to tell. Most steady customers agree that it goes by the name of Nugget, hisses frequently and swoops down from the roof beams to steal edibles (or drinkables) right off the tables. It's also scaled, a bright golden in colour and looks very much like a miniature dragon. But not even the Black Sails would be crazy enough to keep a real dragon… right?
-
These days, the Cerulean Knight (or Clerk in his case) is often witnessed to be wandering through the city explaining to a very young, bright-eyed girl, the intricate workings of pretty much everything that does, has, or perhaps ever will exist in the realms of Men. It would appear that the weird package he'd been toting about has been growing before the very eyes of the - perhaps uninterested - city. The two refer to another who dwells with them, a certain 'Frank'. Walter has perhaps taken on a man now that his woman is gone? Who knows. Who besides Walter, Kaitlyn, an Frank at least…

The Norwick crafter and farmer known simply as "Z" spends a lot of time patrolling outside the perimeter walls of Pelarch. He seems to be looking for something…
-
Rumours of teleportation at the city commons are all but drowned out by the following chill, roaring thunderstorm rolling in from the Icelace. At the heart of this frigid storm, bursts of fire blossomed, outlining two large, winged shapes. Several eye-witness reports describe them clawing and swiping at each other, their vicious combat heard even through the howling wind. It is said both came hurtling down to the ground in a roar of flame, west of the city walls.
"Dragons", the rumours whisper, tinged with fear. Has the dreaded Rass returned once more?
-
A sleepless looking Walter can occasionally be seen taking moonlit strolls beneath the stars in the city park, cooing and muttering to a small bundle that he appears to keep close at all times. An important package perhaps, it's not that unusual to see the Cerulean talking to himself and doing peculiar things one could suppose. If the bundle becomes noisome or restless he appears to dazzle it with bright and wonderful spells; perhaps subduing some tiny demon creature, or mutant plantoid from another realm. Maybe even a dragonling. Certainly, there are a million and one thoughts that should come to mind before one could assume that Walter is caring for a little baby girl…
-
_A new face has arrived to the city. A short-haired, dark armored woman has been seen entering the city hall and other official buildings in the city, apparently looking for a job.
Meanwhile, she appears to spend most of her time utilising the city's forge or tournament grounds._
-
_*Rumour has it that the dread Sister Sorrow visited Peltarch under a wihte flag, offering those who dared a rare opportunity to protect their realm by capturing a live mindflayer for interrogation. The details as to how to do that, and what would it accomplish are blurry, but it involves one known as Blazetamer, known to have cooperated with forces of good and against evil in the past.
A party of either daring or foolish adventurers formed by Artemis, Daron, Elaine, Jonni, Kuln, Nica, Rasuil and Shesarai parted towards the Underdark, and were not seen until a few days later when they returned very tired but mostly unharmed. They did not bring with them a live mindflayer, but they did bring a hefty pile of gold, potions and magical trinkets.
The question remains though… what is going on in the Underdark, and what's all that talk about brain-eating, blood-sucking mindflayers?*_

An earthquake, or perhaps an explosion rocked the Commons a few nights ago. Many fell down and screaming was heard from the Docks District. Several adventurers ran that way, and found two sewer workers badly injured. The guards said that there was a big explosion inside the sewers.
While Theaon administered healing care to the injured, a group of adventurers formed to go inside and check it out. They included Nica, Gnarl, Beourn, Daron, Kuln, Shesarai, Artemis, Salin, and Elaine. The group was gone for a very long time, but then were seen back in the Commons dividing up a large number of potions. They claimed the explosion opened a hole in the sewers floor that led to the Kuo Toa Cave and the Underdark. There they said they encountered Illythids and many dangerous thralls. What are such foes doing so near the surface?

While Brumir is at the Mermaid Inn having an ale, he feels the ground shake, not knowing it from the completion of the Crown of Peltarch. He quickly gets up and starts running south.
"Run fer yer lives! Gralin's mum is comin'!
-
Even those not present may have felt magical power shake Peltarch as Maria, Lycka, Rith and Martouscha finish the creation of the Crown of Peltarch.

Rumour has it there was a ruckus at the Docks, two elven assailants threatening none other than would-be-king George with knife and bow. A Cerulean Knight, a Black Sail and an unarmed woman in dark green are reported to have sprang to George's rescue.
-
Bardess extraordinaire Vera C. Tingle is seen looking at one of the posters
"Is this how they're suppose to convince people George is with the Cyricists? Boy, whoever did this must be really stupid. I bet Cyricists did it."
-
Small, unassuming posters go up around town. They all appear over the course of a single night. The parchment is bare save for a single line of text, "Long Live King George!" and below it a hand-drawn picture - that of a jaw-less skull inside of a sunburst.
-
Mathias is soon seen moving with Beorn not really sure whats going on but willingly taking up guard position
-
Beorn Battlemail was seen stomping into the Peltarch Bank with a couple kin from Aura Runedar. A few shouts are heard coming from within and soon after the dwarves are seen carrying a huge jingling chest onto a horse drawn wagon outside Peltarch's South gate. They spend a few moments strapping it down and checking to make sure the ballista rigged to the wagon is good to go before heading South down the Nars Pass.

She speaks in a soft tone to him, not pressuring him yet knowing of the plans for the funeral as they are spoken of
