::New rumours heard in the Mermaid::
-
_Nicahh hears Sierra's idea to form a political party and is seen talking to a variety of women throughout Peltarch. Rumor has it she wishes to see a uniting of women for the up coming election and perhaps the creation of a party thats main platform consist of women and children's affairs. She suggest that all women who love and truly respect the future of Peltarch will come together and nominate an individual to represent their voices. She tells them she has a few ladies in mind who she believes would benifit the city the most. It appears she has grown tired of tyrant men controlling everything.
On a side note, Nicahh is seen sitting in the commons less and less with her known lover Zanetar. When she is seen with him she appears to have grown even quieter when he is around than before._
-
_Sierra Ju'ent stands in the commons, leaning against her post near the Dancing Mermaid as is her usual wont and inclination, whistling the popular song "Kissin' Cousin's".
She is bored.
She has been out of trouble for far too long.
But then she remembers a conversation she had the night before in the Peltarch Commons about equality between men and women, and which side had taken the pros and the cons.
She gets an idea.
Running into the Mermaid, she cups her hands over her mouth, and shouts from the top of her lungs:_
"Hey ya'll! Whadya'll think 'bout me runnin' for the Pel-tarch Sen-ate?!"
Shortly there after, Sierra can be seen running around Peltarch with the intent to seek out Idym with the idea of forming a political party, in which the Badger would be the symbol set against the shape of a mushroom…
Trouble is afoot.
-
(( ehh… probably shouldn't post this here ))
-
_The troll and umber hulk rumored to have been ravaging the Eastlanders to the south of Peltarch seem to have reappeared, or so rumors would have it. They appear to have redoubled the intensity of their attacks against the bandits, taking no prisoners and showing no mercy whatsoever.
One night not long ago, someone looking out from the city walls might have noticed against the setting sun the silhouette of a huge humanoid creature holding aloft a human head as if in triumph… or warning..._
-
Rumors trickle down about a possible senate election and that the Cerulean Knight and Merchant Chaevre' Vaelen intends to have a run at it, when asked about her current status in the knights and the possible conflict of interest she would state that she will continue to faithfully serve the knights until the election and will remain a knight if she does not get elected
-
_The Nars pass just outside of Peltarch is littered with the bodies of at least 50 dead bandits, all in a large clusters, as if they charged a single foe in groups.
Zanetar's shield looks slightly dented._
-
Rumour has it the Playwright Eowiel Senella is sequestered in the Bardic College working on another play, after the hugely successful production she and the infamous bard Meril starred in, "Antonia", word has it her new play will utilise more of the College's talent and abilities than the previous work did, and won't even feature any Senators!
-
Zanetar is overtly pleased at news of the Kelemvorite's arrest.
-
Anna Sigerlson can be seen with Alice Marrian, Mariston Thel, and a Littel bLonde haired boy around the city. Seems she has adopted the little orphan boy.
She can also be seen visiting General Lavindo and the various other defenders spreading the doctrine of Red Knight and serving as a de facto chaplain of the defenders.
She has also expressed her intent to seek election to one of the empty senate seats. She promises logic and pragmatism is city policy.
-
@beb572879a:
Senator Nico’s popularity seems greatly enhanced, tales that he personally snuck into the city to rescue his lover circulate, others claim it was his plan that lead to victory. He’s greeted with smiles and cheers wherever he goes.
Sierra spreads the word that Nico was not only her savior, but also the savior of another miss by the name of Julia, who had also been trapped within the city.
-
Skyla Vea'Draeven pauses to speak to the citizens in various parts of the city of the reprocussions following the war
"During the war, I donated four thousand gold to healing supplies for the effort to regain Peltarch, and collected almost three thousand in donations from others also to purchase healing supplies. I cannot possibly express to those who donated thier hard earned gold, how much this meant to so many of those who were fighting.
In a time of war, it was bolstering to see citizens who normally never converse pull together. And I only hope we should continue to do so.
For those of you have room in your household and in your hear for a child, I beg of you, please consider taking in one of the many of those who were left orphans by our fight for our city.
For those of you who have more than enough gold for yourself, I beg of you, please donate some small portion of it to the Temple of Tyr, who is still helping to heal those who were wounded.
And to those who are able bodied, I beg of you, please pick up a hammer, use your hands, and do what you can to take this opportunity to reshape our city into one which will be an even more vibrantly shining jewel of the Icelace than before."
-
Strange sensations pulsed across the land of Narfell. Feelings of deja vu and time coming to brief stand stills. As abruptly as it came, the phenomenon passed.
-
_The rogue/arcanist Valen Revera hasn't been seen in the city for days.
Some say he was kidnapped by orcs. Some say he wondered what a Phantasmal Killer scroll felt like and decided to try it out for himself – such a stunt wouldn't be a surprise. Some say he cut himself a bit too deep while shaving. Perhaps he moved away, or perhaps the slow-witted rogue might of tripped on a rock near a cliff and fell to his ultimate doom?
Whichever the case, Most commoners are more then happy thanks to the cocky, loud-mouthed swashbuckler's absence._
-
Rath also remained within the walls, some say leading a small group of guards still loyal to the Senate and protecting those civilians and children unable to escape in the chaos following the start of the fighting. Rath himself is unusually reticent about events inside the occupied city. He visits the temple more frequently than was his wont.
-
_To those who wonder where Natanya was during the civil war, Daisy will tell that she never left the city.
The young Paladin stayed within the walls during the duration of the war, fighting and living with the defenders still loyal to Peltarch. She arrived at the temple looking worn, exhausted, starved and filthy, her armor rusty, her young face hard, and a hint of her innocence lost in her eyes.
She is mostly locked in her room, she goes outside, but has become quite anti-social._
-
Rumors spread quickly that Nicahh was seen escorting a dark clad, hooded elf into the civic hall, where they stayed a short time, before the two left the city heading south… Most of the rumors center around who the elf could have been, but many recognize the quiet form as Sy'wyn.
-
Upon hearing the rumours the young paladin quickly corrects any misunderstandings.
"Good sirs thou hath thine tale incorrect, for thou shouldst be congratulating Sir Sy'wyn for twas he that saved mine life and his skills that secured our sucessful withdrawl from the kobolds cave. He is a brave and honourable person. Also thou hath missed an important person from thine tale, for Lady Eluriel also aided in this."
Seeming much happier that the truth being known Sir Mariston continues on his way
-
Rumors spread quickly through the Mermaid of how the brave paladin Mariston saved the Gali elf Sy'wyn singlehandedly. A small drunken hin slurs the story out to any willing to listen…
i's outs by thems west gatesss, um.. eyein some of thms appless you knoww… and i saws the twoo com in ttalking abouttt an armys of koboldss... in thes caves. Well.. thatss elff.. he werent bloodied up at all.. and the pallie, well hes all beaten up.. and itt obviouss to anyyonne... Mariston beat all them lizards up hisself, didn't give the elfie a chance at.. all.
The hin nods sagely
Yep.. that pallie is a brave one.. heards he wass going back out after em
Though many question the truth of the hins story, others tell tale of seeing Sy'wyn follow Mariston into Anna's home.. many speculate that Sy'wyn choose that moment to swear a life debt to the young favored paladin.
-
Senator Syne is spotted walking the streets of Peltarch during one cloudy afternoon. He doesn't seem to react to anyone around him, his gaze is fixed on the ground before him as he walks, a deep lined scowl on his lips, and a menacing look in his eye.
Something, it seems, has not gone the way he had hoped.
-
@dc15286785=Etherian:
Seems a Drelan Ashire is looking for a ship to take him to Damara. He is asking all interested to leave a notice for him at charters.
Upon hearing the rumour, Ocean, who seems to favour black at the moment, heads to the docks and disappears by longboat for a several hourse returning looking grim faced but resolute.
