Whispers at the Fire



  • Whispers abound of crafty little flying demons to the south of town. Whether this is truth or the product of overactive imaginations has yet to be determined, but either way any threat seems to have been averted… for now.



  • The dark haired, often quiet elf named Vescar has been asking around for his "pet". He says that with disdain, as if it should be taken in jest … but seeing as most folk in norwick know exactly who he is talking about, and by their reactions taking his words seriously, puts him in a horribly foul mood...



  • _The Secretary of Norwick can be seen of this late to be highly active in participating domestic Norwick affairs.

    She is seen providing words of encouragement to the refugees, persuading hardy and strong men to participate in the construction process of the new Norwick through the means of moving existing stones that built the buildings of old Norwick to the new site as a means of reusing resource materials. Those with wood cutting experiences are accompanied with militia escorts to venture into the Western part of the rawlins, where the trees are not affected by the fog, to harvest wood for additional resources.

    Others she encourages them to to provide means of help at the construction site than being idle by clearing land, planting or foraging for food, the tasks which are easily done by women and children, on the land clearing East of the construction site of New Norwick.

    Men or women who expressed interests in martial knowledge to better defend themselves or their family are encouraged to take up courses with the militia in weapon handling, where their skills are much appreciated due to the over stretched and over worked militia force.

    Once she has done her best in persuading and encouraging the Norwick refugees to work and be employed, with hopes none are left idle, she ensures those who contributed are properly rewarded with additional food and secured shelter for their family._



  • Word has it that a group, apparently spurred by Aramuil Holimion, the inquisitive (or as some call it, nosy) elven mage went out, heading east into the Rawlinswood. They came back with the body of a tainted goblin, carried on a floating red disc that floated behind Aramuil; he then took it into Friar Fred's place. He came back out several hours later, looking rather worn out and a bit pale.



  • //grumbles as he was forced to log off by angry parents Sorry for volunteering to join the event and bailing inexplicitly. Wish I could have been there. Hope the low-levels had fun!



  • Rumours abound around town of the Norwick Advisor and Healer Calendel leading a party of brave adventurers into the Graveyard apparently looking for some type of Eye. The following day the adventurers were see coming back into town through the South Gates looking rather pleased and in good spirits.

    //Great Job to all the low-levels in my event. You all performed very well and bravely heldfast even when things looked grim!//



  • Rumours abound of yet another undead column marching its way to the Norwick graveyard.
    The first of the undead to arrive were said to be followed by at least a dozen elves. Night passed, the undead stopped coming and all those who entered the graveyard returned without wounded or dead.

    One wonders what even transpired there.

    On a side note, some Kelemvorites might be heard muttering about their gates having been jammed one night, not any longer, however.



  • _Several people report seeing Wren and Vescar escorting a protesting Hen south towards the bailey after placing her under arrest within Norwick's walls. They return some time later without her. Wren looks to be in an abnormally foul mood.

    Word has it that she's being denied visitors for now._



  • Hen was seen at the fight night some say she came to sture up a storm and other say she came to turn herself in.

    everyone also saw her make a complete fool out of the wizard that they called Eza fooling him at a game of "catch the Hen"

    all they know is that she came she played and left with a biger purse then she came and was never arested

    (sorry for this post being a little late :evil: )



  • Dwin is awakened by one of his guards and is seen walking around interviewing several folks about the recent problems in the graveyard.

    Rubbing his temples to try and help sort out all of the contradictions and hearsay, he finally calls his senior guards and says within earshot of anyone nearby..

    The wiggler stays in jail until I say to let him out. He'll probably be safer in there anyway.

    Melanie Stern is not to be allowed to linger within our borders. If she needs to travel to her shrine and back, I will allow it. If she so much as stops to smell squish a bug, she is to be arrested. I need to have a sit down with Thander and find out why his people are torturing others on Norwick property.



  • Rumour has it that a large amount of undead passed through the Norwick construction site, rushing into the graveyard. Some might mention that a couple of people went in there too…others say that they were Ezachiel, a powerful necromancer, Wren, a Militia member, Cherry, Cera's Granddaughter, and the bard Melidian. Later, a priestess of Kelemvor and Melanie, a Guardian and member of the Watchful Repose, went in too. Not long after sunrise, some say that they left again, with a horribly injured carried over Melanie's shoulder. Chopped up, with both of his hands crushed, his mouth gagged, his arms tied behind his back, and his face bloody and bruised, one might wonder what he might have done to deserve such a punishment. Probably created an army of undead in a bid to overthrow Norwick. Which would explain why he was carried to the Norwick jail by Wren later.



  • amywen leaves note at the milita barrecks concerning the Elven named hen requesting a meeting to settle fine or sentence concerning said assualt



  • Rumour has it that someone who might be recognised as Ezachiel has been going into Norwick at night, covered in a layer of shadows, some say to try to find out more about the fog, others to perform immense satanic rituals in an effort to summon an army of pitfiends. Whatever it is, he appears to have Dwin's permission to do it.



  • I'm tellin' ya, I was just going out for a walk in the Nars, and I saw that creepy mage guy, what's his name again…eh...Eza something? Whatever. I saw that guy just walking out there, wandering back and forth. Anyway, I was getting ready to go back and forth, when all of a sudden this hobgoblin ran up to him. You know, the big ones? He just stood there, waiting for that thing to get closer, and he was mumbling something, I dunno what. Oy! that's my beer! Give it back! Hmpf. Kids these days. Right, where was I? Oh yeah, that thing was going at him, and he snapped his fingers, and it dropped dead! And then he just walked back to town... I've seen those mage types killing stuff with fire and all kinds of weird stuff, or scaring them to death and all that...but that thing just...I dunno. One moment it was running and shouting, the next moment, it was dead. Scary stuff man. I sure do hope that I never piss him off. So, what was that you were saying about them kids?



  • @e70afffd46=Clan:

    _The Norwick Guards are seen passing around a crudely drawn wanted poster of a elf-lass named "Hen".

    Word has it that she is wanted for attempted assault on Lord Dolvak himself when he tried to politely bring her in for questioning one evening._

    _An exasperated Wren is seen on gate duty at the barracks arguing with a man with a chicken.

    "Yes, I know the poster says 'Hen', but that's not what it means. We don't want your chicken."

    protest

    "Yes, I'm sure she's a desperate and vicious layer, but we don't want her! We're looking for an elf named-"

    argument

    "That is not an elf, that's a chicken! Look, you just told me it was a hen! That's… yes, we're looking for a 'hen' who's an elf, but this is not an elf, it's a CHICKEN."

    howls

    "It does NOT have pointy ears! Chickens don't have ears!"

    cajoling

    "If you're still here in five seconds, you and your chicken are going into the cells!"_

  • _On a visit to Norwick, the young mage Dyani al Fehzim spies the Wanted poster and studies it curiously.

    After a moment or two of thought, she makes an inquiry as to whether a bounty has been offered for Hen's return._

  • Rumour has it that the former militia trainee Ezachiel can be seen visiting Norwick again from time to time, though not often, and usually not for long.



  • Word has begun to spread about an elf who speaks with a noble tone asking around about creatures he calls "Fey'ri" or "Daemonfey"; half-elf, half-demon. Apparently, he believes some may be in Narfell and is trying to find them. He says that they would have an "unhealthy" interest in magical artifacts or demon-related lore and areas. He has started his search in the Rawlinswoood, apparently trying to find areas that the Fey'ri might be hiding.
