Whispers at the Fire



  • about two days after the Commander of the Black Dragons does her turn about norwick, the herald reads his announcements for the day

    Hear ye! Her ye!

    The Chancellor announces that the Romani People are hereby welcomed within the walls of Norwick, to partake in trade and defense of the region as a whole as agreed to by Romani Elder and the Realm's Chancellor alike.

    The Chancellor also expresses his sincere regret for the necessity to ban Romani forces from the Realm of Norwick in the recent past. The Chancellor wishes to make clear that the threats of one man, even the leader of the Romani people, will not sway him from doing what is right and just for the good people of Norwick, for our Romani allies and for the safety of the entire southern Nars as a whole. Hopefully the need for such rash decisions in the future will not be needed, as current Romani leadership continues to mature.

    from there, Fendon continues though his announcements of the day, including the defeat of the orcs in jiyyd.



  • _Though the boarshead doors are open, the place is still only a shell of its former self. The upper levels have been deemed unsafe, the door upstairs currently nailed shut. Some locals, with the help of the crafters union, have managed to put together a working kitchen in the back of the boarshead for the time being. The kitchen currently produces baked goods, breads and pies. Even so most everything made goes to the workers and townsfolk who still struggle to rebuild their homes and the southern defenses of their town. By the time most travelers reach the boarshead to make a purchase, all they have is already gone.

    Other than the kitchen, no further work has been done on the boarshead. Some around the town suggest that the old inkeeper Brane may put whats left of the place up for sale if the chancellor doesnt step in and do something. Others say the chancellor intends to tear the inn down and salvage what he can to put to use on the southern wall. But still, no one in town seems to have any idea when a working inn will open for business.

    With townsfolks still displaced in tents, it would seem a there is no lack of want for an inn either…_



  • The Commander of the Black Dragons is seen walking around Norwick, examining all signs and official notices. Apparently not finding what she seeks, she's overheard muttering as she stalks off towards the Great Hall

    Lucid ain't as quick with those official unbannings as he was with the official bannings…..

    (Send Lwyn a tell in game if you are interested))



  • Z helps the Norwick rebuild any way he can, but now spends the majority of his time helping to rebuild the craft hall as quicky as possible.

    Rebuilding the hall is the key to a quick recovery. We can make tools, cut boards, craft weapons and armor for the defense, and so on.

    Rebuildin' the hall should be a top priority…

  • Rumors spread quickly of a great battle on the plains and the defeat of the orcs. Their fortress near abandoned and burnt to the ground.



  • Towns folk can be seen working on repairs and cleaning up of the town and things seem to be getting back to normal.



  • Elena, a priestess with the Divine Shield, has been seen in town distributing supplies to the Norwick refugees and dispensing medical aid.



  • Goblins have been fleeing the east in greater numbers. Seemingly whole tribes with women and children and the occasional giant bug are hurriedly heading west looking over the shoulders with goblin fighters gairding the rear. Whatever it is seems to have the goblins in a state of panic as they abandon their ancestorial homes.


  • ICC

    Horbag once again enters town with some furs and food for the locals. After talking to some adventures she and her new friends head north and return with a plentyful bounty of freshly cooked meat for the people of Norwick



  • Guardians Ragnhild and Zoma set out to patrol the eastern parts of the Rawlins, aided by their good friend Mark Kelben and sneaky scouting Wolves Vine and Suld'in. The group's aim was to try and find trace of whatever it is that has the goblins of that area fleeing for their lives. Troubled by the party's prolonged abscence, fellow Guardian Yarchum set out to find his friends, with the help of Sywyn. All returned to the south fire after some time, alive, but looking worn and weary. Whether or not they found anything of interest is as yet unknown.



  • One o me own kin accused me o buildin a temple to Bane himself here… I am startin to think that people dont trust us, Lucid. its down-right insultin.

    What's next? <mocked>We hear yer buildin a home fer retired orcs in Norwick and we're concerned

    Buncha fools.

    Dwin wanders off to supervise the continued work on the statues at the South Gate</mocked>



  • the chancellor peers closely at one of the notes, his face contorting into a horribly confused expression as he reads. He cant help but laugh at the end of it though.

    Cyric?! Gods, where do people get such bizarre notions…

    and the elf just walks off shaking his head, not even bothering to tear the page down.



  • ::A hooded nameless person, can be seen Posting pieces of paper around the rebuilding sites of Norwick, upon closer inspection the papers contain a message::

    _To Any who read this, Rumours have been surfacing that the approval of Temples dedicated to gods such as Cyric and Velsharoon have been approved for construction in or around Norwick.

    Just for public knowledge to those helping the rebuilding of Norwick._

    ::When notes are removed from their placings, they burn to ash in a matter of seconds, leaving no legible trace of them::



  • _After meeting with the Chancellor, Lilin, Selene, William, Sywyn, and an Unnamed bard plus a slew of Gypsy Defenders are seen entering town and setting up shop in Norwick

    The Romani Trader Selene, sells simple supplies to the rebuilders of Norwick, and it is quickly made a well establised fact that a great majority of her profits will be going back into Norwick for the time being_



  • _When Calendel isn't scribing plans, he is out with some of the returned refugees aiding with re-tilling the local farms and gardens and replanting hardy crop such as potatoes and carrots that may grow even in the current conditions.

    Calendel is see often praying and providing blessings from Chauntea onto the injured Norwick land and aiding the commoners with healing and blessings as well.

    After taking care of everyone else, when Calendel has a little time to himself he can be seen summoning Elementals to aid in the reconstruction of the Friars from his encampment out front._



  • _Work continues in Norwick, with improvements visible almost daily. The contingent of dwarves that was busily fortifying the south wall before the invasion is back and working to repair the damage.

    A team of the dwarves using even more Rothe is seen entering town from the north and dragging some very heavily looking covered stone slabs towards the south gate.

    Its the work of almost 2 days to get the stone slabs in place. They appear to be rough statues, as one can easily discern the shapes, but they are not yet hewn to any level of detail that will be recognizable.

    Lucid and Dwin can be seen paying close attention to the southern defenses, as well as pacing out different areas in the center of town. Calendel can be seen trying hard to keep up while he takes notes of the conversations and does his best to transliterate the conversations into some type of actionable plans._



  • _In chain mail that looks as if it were taken from a rather small goblin, Kresha has been seen roaming through the refugee camp and into the rebuilding town of Norwick. As she roams she seems to be gathering up adventurers and lay abouts along the way. It seems that a promise of a fair cut of the spoils is incentive enough to join a scouting party headed for the Rawlins. She makes it known to all who seem interested that the patrol will last a few days and upon returning and a few days break will re-form for another ranging.

    Those that know her well notice that she has been keeping better care of her appearance lately. Straight shiny hair and freckles have replaced the dirt and grease of camp and battle._



  • @5d4d49fea5=sciolist:

    a brave party of adventurers led by Jerr the Magnificent .

    I am so gonna get the publicist who made that moniker . . .Jerr left before the division of spoils saying that he was satisfied with the lesson and did not need to take too much of the reward.

    He did leave saying he would get something offn of keira later to which they both smiled wickedly before he jogged (and joggled) off into the forest.
