Tavern Rumors of Peltarch
-
Word has it a bare dozen lucky adventurers embarked on the Star Harpy and were whisked off to a distant world beyond the stars. Scattered tales from the returning participants reveal the name Illisen, and make mention of a conflict of the four elements.
-
In a roar of flame, something large comes hurtling across the sky towards Peltarch, causing a bit of a panic before it narrowly passes the city proper by, landing in the nearby foothills. Concerned city employees and nosy adventurers drawn to the scene see no smoking crater in the ground, but something far more wonderous and unexpected: a ship, hovering in the air. The word is that the fabled starship known as the Star Harpy has landed in Narfell once again.

_Hemrod’s store appears to be much in need of repairs.
A willow tree stands in one corner, its roots having ripped up flagstones and branches having broken through other parts of the structure to reach sunlight._
-
There has been a mysterious death in the gaol it is said, some puzzled and sickened looking guards were seen removing the corpse in a bucket, the foul smelling swill within was seen by some hapless passers by, much to their chagrin.
In unrelated news it seems there was a break in at Hemrod’s somehow the magical wards were bypassed…how no-one knows…it is rumoured a magical hand was stolen…rumours do bring the strangest news
-
Perhaps Oscura has done something terrible of late, or made attempts against Elidur (which is still pretty terrible, at least in his opinion) recently. But each and every time without fail, whenever an Oscuran passed by him he's noted to ask "the Ancient Kings of Dúr" for some protection against their villainy - and cast a ward spell upon himself or upon the very ground the wicked Oscurans have walked over.
"Oh, why? Well one can't be too careful with their sort after all! All damning and cursing, it's in the glare you see. Just you watch them."

_The red haired priestess of Sharess, Kat, has been seen around the Peltarch Fest Hall even more than, her already rather often, usual. She is often found praying silently, though occasionally prays softly out loud to both Sharess and Sune to help one of Her misguided paladins, asking to fill his heart with love and acceptance rather than swift, hateful judgment. When not praying she will either serve food and drink to those who visit or head to the Mermaid to sleep.
If people ask why she's praying so much for the paladin, she politely states it is between them and their Goddesses and that she will not slander the paladin's good name._
-
Labur spends most of his time in Peltarch in the brewery helping Mott with odd jobs and learning the craft of batch brewing in hopes of one day being able to produce and sell his own label.
-
Vandekaus can be seem expending some nice days in Peltarch. He stays mainly in the Commons hearing the small talk of folks.
Eventually, he goes into the Marmeid Inn, just to get his ale refreshment.That's a deserved rest after almost one month dedicating himself to his mining skills.
-
Upon hearing these rumours during her regular docks wandering; Kamilah Thersos (in CK mode) has been entertaining the sailors with more indepth inquiries into said storms and shadows.
-
::sailors have been returning from the northern reaches of the icelace and bringing back strange tales of dark storms and dark shadows in the northern ice, thus far only one trading vessel is thought to have travelled close to these phenomenon and it has not been seen since.::
-
Dondiah was seen performing an uplifting dance, scantily clad in pink, at the request of Sabre Seesaw and all those gathered in the commons the other day. It was said her voice was as uplifting and melodic as the bells on her wrists and ankles and that she performed an old elven fest hall song. After the dance, sweating and beaming she was given a healthy sum for the dance at Miss Seesaws insistence.
-
A moment of perfection… the tongue of angels rang out in the commons for a short performance by the returned songstress, Val Kyrie. Those present were moved to tears by the beauty of the music, and the performer herself seemed a little overawed before returning to the College to rest.
// Rolled a 20 on Perform for a 72 total check.
-
_Anyone who passes by or enters the Temple of the Triad would hear beautiful music coming from within, the strings of a harp being played with skill beyond what may normally be accomplished by a mortal.
If they were to investigate the source of the music, they would find the currently voiceless songstress, Val Kyrie, kneeling in prayer and speaking through her music to the Red Knight… a vigil that she keeps up for several days and nights without sleep._
-
the banished Oscuran known as Vladimir was seen being dragged to the jail by Ronan, after being escorted to the city by a pair of leigonaires. His body seem unconcious and bloody
-
Rumor has it that the simple merchant extraordinaire Alexi is missing an arm! Also that if anyone finds it that he is offering a reward as he would really like his left arm back.
-
In the past few days, Hammer has been asking around Peltarch's taverns and markets, talking to merchants, mercenaries and other travellers as to the whereabouts of Maya.
((Please send me a PM or approach me IG if you would know something, or if NPC's would))
-
_Oscuran Noble Vladimir Kursk was seen being hauled in toward the gaol by a few guards. The group was escorted by none other then senator Ronan Redralen, who seemed to be aglow with a few magical wards.
The Oscuran peacekeeper was wounded with several burns on his body.._
-
_A flurry of activity was seen near the Bardic College, with talk of assassins breaking in and attacking the recently returned Val Kyrie and Fadia the Druidess. Defenders cordoned off the area for a time, with anyone going near it sent away quietly
Soon afterwards, a locksmith made his way to the College and disappeared inside for quite some time._
// If you have a key to the Bardic College and aren't a current member, please trash it as the locks have now been changed. I'd rather trust people to be honest, than have to ask the Devs to change all the codes for the college in the modules for the door locks.
-
Reports have been coming in from all over the city the past couple days of blue magical sparks appearing in the air, as a tiny explosion. The sparks flutter down to the ground and burn out quickly, but this seems to have the Ceruleans on constant patrol around the city. Whether they know the cause or not is unknown, they seem quite tight lipped about the whole thing, though at present they tell folks that the sparks don't appear to be harmful to anyone or anything.
-
Diadne has been heard asking adventurers and merchants if anyone has armor or shield that won't hinder spell casting. A rather odd request coming the likes of her, though she has been seen undergoing martial training in the company of Mariston and his squires
