::New rumours heard in the Mermaid::
-
Merydian can be seen scouring the docks for new helpers with Ocean's orphanage, as well as looking for Ocean with new donations from herself, Justain, and Hjoichi.
-
A blonde apprentice can be seen delivering letters to various dignitaries throughout the city. Needless to say this marks the announcement of something rather important.
-
A small hin in beggar's rags is seen to be following Deacon around.
-
Lieutenant Senella and a couple of her Knights can be seen investigating the scenes of the various murders and incidents of darkness, their blue and silver cloaks billowing in the chill morning gusts as they strive against what seems an almost insurmountable and increasingly lethal mystery.
-
A frightened shop keeper in the Bait and Tackle was heard to have discovered a lion, hacked dead in his shop. It would appear, the creature was dragged there and dumped. A fine source of food, your scavenger spirit might tell you, but as the chap approached the carcass, he dropped his dagger to the floor with a clatter. Twin Breakers, the Mark of the Sea Fury was written on the animals flesh. It would only be a warning.
-
Arien Ashald can be seen visiting with her family and others in the Civic district. Rumor has it they have been celebrating her appointment as Spellweaver's Envoy to Peltarch and her burgeoning career as Professor of Evocation.
-
Upon hearing of the planned improvements to the crafting hall, Dwin appears to be happy.
About time they caught up to Norwick. I hope they are smart enough to add an anvil and a forge….
-
Rumors fly of a recent, gruesome slaying near the Docks district. The entire west wall post was found dead. All three guards were laying in heaps, lifeless and without a single wound, as if the very life had been sucked out of them.
One of them, in a frightening act of bravery, cut his own arm and drew two letters on the floor beside him in his own blood.
CK
After a combing of the area, another guard was found by the South Gate of the Commerce District, his throat slit open from ear to ear.
One woman reports to have seen a large group of children suddenly becoming visible in the middle of the street and rushing out towards the gates near the docks. A moment later darkness fell on the walls and she panicked and fled.
-
Word spreads that Zyphlin apparently delivered a Very large bag of gold to the Peltarchan Crafting Hall earlier in the day, explaining to the crafters within that the money is to go to getting better equipment and renovations to the crafting hall to make it even more worthy of Peltarch's name. After seeing the large number of coins in the bag the crafters inquired with Zyphlin as to where it came from. He chuckled a bit and smiled before replying
Half of a fine of a prominent Union member. Half is in the city coffers, and I thought the other half should go to a worthy Peltarchan ran facility.
-
A group of young boys was recently found out just North of the Peltarch gates… near the Westfence...
Hjoichi Olsen deftly nabbed two by the ear and Sherrif Drelan hauled several over his should back to the gates where they were told to head straight to their mothers and not to come back less'n they can fend of the Kobold Menace.
-
While discussing Chavre's recent "demonstration" with her in the commons, Clandra was seen to use several spells, apparently on a bench, while having some sort of emotional breakdown over appreciation of her dancing. Talgrath, already in a foul mood, threw up his hands in disgust and stomped off, muttering and grumbling about the knights' behavior; threatening to take his grievances to the senate if Anakore didn't do anything.
-
Rumor has it that Arien Ashald has recently returned from a trip to the Kingdom of Tethyr where she was entertained at the court of King Haedrick the Younger. Word has it she negotiated a trade agreement between the Kingdom's Silk Merchants and the Seafarers. She seems quite proud of herself and is often seen smiling and reading the letters sent to her by the young prince of the kingdom asking for her hand in marriage.
-
Ezachiel states in public that he fully agrees with Chaevre, and, when asked why, starts an hours long speech on the subject of necromancy.
-
Upon hearing of this, Talgrath frowns and wanders out of the inn, grumbling and looking for Anakore with muttered curses under his breath.
-
Zyphlin laughs when he hears it and gives a little smile, shaking his head and speaking with a grin
Chaevre must be an idiot if she honestly thinks she is going to convince people of that. The World over people know that Undead are evil. The creation of them is EVIL. They are a vile menace that bring energies of death and despair into the world that feed off the good of people. I can only imagine what sick and vile reasons the woman would want to try to convince people that this is somehow a good thing. The fact that one of our Knights of the Cerulean Stars is using magic to cause a DISTURBANCE in the commons by scaring people just ot make a point about trying to get people to accept Evil and Vile magic. Just absord.
-
Rumors spread through the commons that the witch Chaevre' was using her evil vile magics to animate dead right in the commons in front of everyone, while the paladins gazed in anger some even retreating to the temple, others just watched in amusement, yet no guard jumped to arrest her. At the end of the demonstration Chaevre' points out that the spells used was a simple cantrip and that peoples Perceptions on the act of animating the dead can be compared to Animating an object, while she was trying to teach the lesser minds that the spell used to Animate dead has its uses, that it is no more evil then the simple cantrip used to make a skull float. . to her dissapointment though the ignorance of the lesser minds shine through and they refused to accept and learn from her demonstration.

@5a0e517d1d=elor_danna:
Word spreads through the docks that Deacon was caught tied to the sundial in the commons. Some say that he was dressed in woman's clothes, other say that he was making out with Zanetar. People who know the right people, who then know other people, could, with some work, find out that the rumour originates from a small female hin, dressed in black, with her face hidden behind a hood and cowl.
// That is like, weeks ago? O.o.. bit too late?
-
Sierra can be seen chuckling at hearing the news of Deacon.
I hope they didn't forget the pretty pink bows and tha' lip rouge. He looked so pretty when he was trussed up like tha' last time I tied him to tha' dial.

To some people's relief rumors flare up about the arrest of the infamous Beshaban priestess Elissa. While people begin to cheer, it seems that she has been cleared of any charges. Obviously the arrest was a mistake or, as a lot of people say behind her back, an accident.
