-
An older women aprouches Sir Richard Luis she is beaten and extremely sadden. Sir Richard Luis renders aid to this poor older women. She states that she was picking herbs when out from nowhere a kobold attack her and stold her necklace. This necklace was a gift from her husband of many years before he died. She continues by saying she thinks the kobold ran in to a cave. Following day sir Richard, Sir Merum, Senator Roland and Sir Amana enter in a cave to find out that the kobold gave it to the sea hag. Sir Richard retreives the necklaces and returns it to the poor older women. Her face turned from extremely sadness to jubilation. She invites Sir Richard to dinner and Sir Richard tells her of the order of divine sheild their commitment to people of peltarch and especially of Sir Thel's run for a seat in the senate.
-
Sir Richard Luis is seen helping Sir Mariston Thel set up for his clinics. He is seen in the commons talking to the good people of peltarch about Sir Thel and his qualities. Words such as courage,honar, fairness, and new ideas are mentioned when he speaks of Sir Thel for senator.
-
A thin, dark-haired moon elf was seen in the City Hall deep in conversation with the herald. A passing clerk claims to have overheard the pair discussing the lineage of the Ashald family and the possibility of delving into the Hall of Records to obtain a copy of such information.
-
Drelan has been seen in the city again for more than just brief moments. Most recently he was seen entering with Miss Nyda into the Mermaid, and after sometime leaving seeming somewhat unsettled.
-
Mariston can be seen over several days setting up a clinic so that people can come and ask questions of him and his intetions if he is elected.
-
During the night, alarm bells sound in the Civic District. The city gates are sealed by guards, and troops of soldiers are seen filling the streets. At his mansion just a few blocks from the Senate, a man is found murdered in his bedroom. Some say the assassin did the job so fast that the victim's face did not have time to register his surprise. Then again, perhaps it is better that the proud soldier be remembered as having left this world with a smile, rather than with a frightened and pallid mask of defeat.
In the morning, word has spread through most of the city. Reshor is dead.
-
_Rumors flit about about the sighting of one, Sierra Ju'ent, after a long LONG absence. However, oddly enough, Sierra seems to not be wearing her unusual hat now days, nor her dirty boots, but instead…
A clean dress, with her face well scrubbed, her hair brush and arranged neatly, and for some reason, carrying a mop.
She has been seen sitting vigilantly outside of Nico Black's apartment with her mop, a look of fierce determination on her face.
While some question whether the lack of hat and boots is a sign of the end of the world, not to mention the fact she's wearing a dress and has brushed hair, the most important question on everyone's lips is...
Why in the heck is she carrying a mop_?
-
Rumors circulate that few have seen the Magistrate since the vanishing of the crystals. He has not been found in either of his offices nor in the commons as usual. A few citizens here and there have stated they saw him coming in through the gates at night befor shortly leaving once more, but the small number of sitings leads the validity of the statements to be in question
-
There's a rumor about stronger activity of kobolds in the foothills again, but it's also said that the Defenders did a find job removing a couple of nasty kobolds and driving them back into the holes they crawled out.
-
There has been renewed activity around the temple of Tyr as members of the Divine Shield bustle about, apparently in preparation for something.
Rumors abound that it is preparing to host a delegation from a knighthood in a neighbouring country.
-
Senator Rath Ashald was recently seen about the city in the company of a confetti-tossing servant girl. Apparently Rath is very excited about the ongoing senatorial elections and is openly supporting candidate Clandra Galpen, whom he claims he will marry (in the loosest sense) after she wins, thereby placing another Ashald on the Senate and cementing his family's legacy. Figure that one out.
-
Zyphlin can be heard to remark
Its good to see the city so active, though some of these candidates coming out are rather interestnig. And what's this I hear…someone threw my name in before I even officially confirmed my running? ::laughs a bit:: Well, guess I'll have to make my choice rather soon then...
-
Rumor has it the Mog, Major of the Legion and Deputy of the Union has turned in his papers to seek a seat on the senate.
-
Rumors spread all over the city that Lord Aarron Ashald has finally come out and openly declared he will be running for Senator in the upcoming elections. When approached by people on it he smiles and states.
What better way for me to serve the people and the Jewel then by being a Senator. I simply wish, as the Lady Siamorphe does that the most worthy of people govern the city and its populace, perhaps I may be one, only time will tell.
With that he usually walks off and sits on the nearest bench, writing in his journal and answering any question brought to him with a smile.
-
A new and shocking rumor has surfaced that a decendant of the line of King Tidus has returned to Peltarch from Hoarsgate. His name is Tidus Clodpin and has filed to run for the senate.
His documents have been turned in to city hall and have been authenticated.
-
A great fair was held at the old Alliance Arms Inn. Following an archery competition, a cage fight and a battle game came the largest auction in years. Many thousands of gold changed hands, all in favor to auctionmaster Nico Black, of course.
-
It was said that an archery comeptition was sponsored by the city during the festival with numerous figures within the city entering. In the end it was a senators wife taking third as the fair maiden Linah put on an impressive showing. Second was one of the brave defenders of the city, the man named Rando. First place was run by the cities Magistrate and renowned bard Zyphlin, who took home the 2,000 gold piece first prize. It is said later at the announcments for the Order of the Fisher King he donated the prize money to the families of fallen soilders during the civil war.
-
Those gathered in the market during the closing of the Festival's first night see a rather inebriated Rath Ashald exchanging words with the blade-dancer Elash. The two men seem dangerously close to drawing blood before they are separated by some of the crowd and everyone goes home.
-
Captain Anakore of the Knights of the Cerulean stars seems, despite the many events in and around the city, very much introvert lately. He regards business and cases with what seems to be lack of caring, leaving his Knights to handle them. In the absence of Nicahh he seems to have thrown himself with vigor into mining and crafting, making toys for his daughter and a rumored gift for his teenage son. He seems pretty distracted from the real life around him, as if he is waiting for something or someone to drop by.
-
Chaevre' Vaelen was seen going into a room in the mermaid with Emma Lavindo and A cleric, apparently the Keeper of Spellweaver was going to be doing an experiment on Emma to help her sleep as well as to gain a better understanding of her condition through use of mind magics, many hours later Chaevre' and the Cleric were seen leaving, Chaevre' seemed to have had her arm shattered but mended by the cleric, litle is known about the study or how her arm was broken but one thing is certain that Emma was able to get a decent nights rest.
