A penguin drags a large basket of lollipops around town, clumsily tossing sweets with it's flippers to all the boys and girls. It makes a special visit to the orphanage. Every now and then it will perform impressive acrobatic feats and squark out the tune of a solstace song.

Serina Reign can be seen going about emotionelessly collecting the names of the dead from the battle. She copies the names, the form of death and what gods they worshipped for the ones that are known. She then sprinkles a mixture of ash and dusted bone over the names. Only after recording all the names does she offer what assistance she can to the survivors.

An orc raiding party atacked The Jewel recently. Peltarch guards and defenders were able to hold their position at the wall, but the farmlands were run over.Farms were burned and farmers killed mercilessly.
What set up the atack is a mystery. Were the orcs trying to colect resources for the winter, or did someone just poked a hives nest?

_The high rate of pirate attacks in the Icelace has continued, with many Oscuran bound ships being destroyed or attacked by ferocious pirates.
Rumour has it that a Peltarch bound ship was attacked, but it seems as soon as the pirates found out it was going to Peltarch, it was immediately left alone._

A bloodied knight returns from the southern swamplands, warning the guards at the gates of an increased hostility from the scaly inhabitants nearby - small and big. An electric bolt of lizardman design still fizzles, buried into the folds of a blue cloak.

_A small party is seen coming up from the south early one morning. Many recognize Therean traveling with another younger elf who seems to be new in the region along with a Half-orc humming a tune as he walks and a lady who moves quickly and furtively always on her guard.
Rumors begin to spread that the group was ambushed by bandits south of Peltarch. A bad lot calling themselves "Sweety's Gang" made up of worshipers of Umberlee and Talos. Seems they had some "business" with the musically inclined Half-orc, but their ambush went south._

Rumors have Vick from Vanity Plates fleeing the the Docks in heartbroken tears… it seems someone has wounded the sensitive man in some love-triangle of the ages. In a possibly related rumor it seems Walter hasn't had a new shirt in some time...

A group of intrepid sewer patrollers, led by Sir Rath Ashald-Jorinsen and including Lady Ashena, Cecil, Walter, and Romulus; ventured into the Peltarch sewers to further investigate rumors of a vampire, and look for the missing children. What they found was deeply disturbing.
Not far inside under the Docks District, the ghost of a Peltarch guard was detected fleeting past them. The party gave chase, but the ghost disappeared near the area where the Vampire was encountered by Rath and company a few weeks ago. Voices and the sound of chanting were heard. A Cyriicist cultist ran at them but Romulus shot him before he could speak. Two more cultists attacked and were quickly dispatched by the powerful party.
Then the ghost of a small girl appeared alone. She seemed scared and tried to talk, but no sound came. Then the ghost of a Peltarch guard appeared nearby, drew a weapon, and stabbed the little girl in the heart. She collapsed on the floor and the guard's ghost disappeared.
Trying to investigate, the party reached the broken platform over sewer waters where the vampire was last seen. Walter, the most magically attuned, detected something popping around his head, as if a bubble had burst. Rath found an anchor and some rope, and Cecil, the strongest, tossed it across the stinking waters to a door that had previously been unreachable.
Romulus, the most dexterious of the group, crossed over and opened the door. He found the small room behind it empty, but the door slammed shut behind him and locked. Blood was seeping from the floor and began flowing under the door. Romulus used an amulet that allowed him to see invisibility, and made sure that the room was empty, except for the blood. He then used a universal key to open the door and cross back to his companions.
Cursing the bloody mad Cyricists, Rath and Ashena led the party back the way they had come. Walter again detected a poping sound. Afterwards, the party was attacked by a dozen slow-moving, halberd wielding, War Dead zombies. These had not been seen before. When they were safely destroyed, the party cleared the entire sewers of all the cultists, undead, slime, and oozes; then did the same to the barrows below. Nothing more unusual was detected. This mystery remains unsolved.

Apparently, orcs decided to try to wake the western tower, being slain by the guards inside, then pushed back by valiant adventurers, including Rath and his noble mount, Aspera, a redcloak somewhwere in the mix, and a defender or two, among others. A heroic fight pushed the orcs back where they belong!
