Whispers at the Fire
-
Kull was sitting under the shade of the watch tower at norwicks south gate when the group of adventurers passes by. They look beat and tired, and show evident signs of beeing envolved in skirmishes, judging for the bad condition of their armors
Guess y´all been havin sum fon, eh ladds? * nods his aproving nod at the brave warriors.* Dats d´spirit !! raises a bottle of ale at the group and gulps the ale down in just one go

_A half dozen dwarven masons and construction workers begin work building what appears to be a largish warehouse looking building in the Northern area of town.
The Dwarf known as the "Foreman" supervises the work, passes out the food and ale 3 times per day, presides over morning prayers, and makes general comments on the progress.
The Chancellor stops by regularly and chats with the foreman, and any who are within earshot would hear discussion of the newly formed "Norwick Trading Company," and its future use of the new building._

((
can we get some clarification on what this means:
@4038b969e9:
On a side note, the number of random deaths in and around the village continues to rise in count by one with each passing day.
this is the first i am hearing of it….

Recent activity around the south gate and then farther, perhaps as far south as the abandoned camp, has centered again on the Apothocary as a haphazard band of mis-adventurers was seen leaving Norwick in the cover of darkness. They were gone for most of a whole day then, with several upset greenskinned foes on their heels, they appeared again, beaten, bruised, and generally worse for the wear as the sun was again setting over the village. Since their return, Trisitina has been noticably absent from her usual post in the Apothocary.
Looking for her in her usual stay will be difficult as it is rumored she has retreated behind locked doors to the second floor of the building, busy at work on something.

_Lord Dolvak can be seen discussing some matters with Tornar Redanvil.
Rumor has it that the dwarven mage has signed on to be a member of the famed South Nars Militia, and has also accepted a position as "Counselor of all Fun things, Fight Nights, and Entertainment" or some such title after his recent success._

A broadly proportioned dwarven lass lays face down on a particularly hard and comfortable rock. She seems to be enjoying the warmth of the sun on her body and the heat radiating from the rock. She wears a thin shift, and apparently little else, that has apparently surrendered its original shape to the needs of her ample bosom and buttocks. Her face is screwed up in concentration, her tongue sticking out to the side as she jots down a list of words on a narrow scrap of parchment. When she's done, she sets the list on one of the stone benches by the fire with a small rock on it to keep it from blowing away.
The list reads:
Then a short break before continuing…
She totters off, swigging ale and scratching her ass, singing off key:
"Dwin's 'ammer's vary funk-shunull
When 'e uses it te thump da skull
O' dat fren'ly 'alf wit Kull
Jest fer bein' un numbskull…"
-
A lovely looking dwarven lass in light purple, blue and grey armor was seen hawking ale and wine at the last fight night. She apparently kept threatening to bellow at people until they purchased all her ale and wine.
-
A small undead attack occured, and it seems that one of the guard was killed in it. Oddly, Aramuil and a guard took the body to Tristina to be recovered and the guard was apparently restored to life, but later ran from the apothecary, screaming in madness, and then impaled himself on his sword just north of the crafting hall.
-
The Chancellor hears of this and quickly issues orders.
The bugbears mightbe stakin their claim again in that cave.
he turns to the closest Red Cloak
Go find one o me senior officers and tell them to go take some men and check it out. I dont care who.
-
While visiting Norwick, Aurelia informs the guards of a Summoning Portal in the small cave south of old Norwick, she tells them there was blood at the entrance and two humanoids staked on pikes outside the entrance, she did not see anyone who may be responsible for the scene.

There was a massive, day-long struggle between those that defend Norwick and a massive force of undead, which seemed to appear out of thin air. One powerful skeleton even entered the Great Hall and there was some external damage to the Great Hall by an earthquake. Commander Mord Cabro, Advisor Arcane Aramuil Holimion, Theaon Thorn and Kelemvorite Natasha tried to enter the graveyard, but large boulders seem to block entrance to it. In the end, the battle was won in favor of Norwick without major casualties, but many were wounded and the entire fighting force of Norwick was left exhausted from the long struggle.
Many notables were involved in the fight, but of particular note to many were Aramuil Holimion, Norwick's Advisor Arcane, he was involved in the combat from the beginning and downed many many undead with powerful magics. Others point to the heroism of Militia Commande Mord Cabro and Divine Shield Knight Elenwyd whom combated the undead up close and personal. Still others point to the clerical powers of Theaon, Natasha and Jirka.

General Grag was seen entering Norwick he was seen by Kull and Orcish grunts were flown in Kulls way for a bit then Grag seemingly was paying these bards to Stop singing about Kull the Dull " I nae ned ye makin a specticle ovra sum damm undeeders… Legion nut glory hounds!" then he slips the bar maid some coin and buys everyone in there a round of Dolvak Dark and swiftly left clinging his cloak back over his shoulder
-
Several of the Red Cloaks, including Plato (who is normally found near the fire) chuckle about the rumor that the Chancellor is going to outlaw any further bard-singing about Kull, mostly on account of the fact that nothing good rhymes with "Kull" and the songs thus far have been very disappointing to the ear.
-
There's one bard in Narfell that never put fingers to lyre, or tongue to lyric, that had anything to do with any adventurer named Kull. The obvious distaste in his eyes if any kind of request was put to him said it all.
"What does this "Kull" do, go around paying bards to sing of lesser exploits?" is heard from him when asked. "Well he certainly hasn't payed me."
The bard, dressed up in white and copper, then proceeds to sing about himself, sending the last few stragglers of the decaying and worm-infested inn he is performing in – the only place his few measly gold pieces would get him into -- screaming for the comfort of a wet and cold moss bed in the woods.
-
all over norwick, folk talk about the undead attack that happend in the night before. Folk talk about the brave group of warriors that go about by the name KULL, Sywin, Aramuil, Sald , Belia , Moradim and Eluriel. Bards in norwick write ferneticaly on pieces of parchement their next new songs about these courageous group of men and woman. thier songs not only talk about the outstanding victory of good before evil.. but also talked about the two Norwick Guards that fell defending their home town

:: a great new game has spread throughout Norwick for a couple weeks. Apparently after hearing that Kull stopped a 'possible' attack it is now common practice for a commoner to claim something similar to much rejoicing and drinking by his fellows. Common ones seem to be:
"Ay kill'd a possible dragon today"
"Ay slept with a gurl that possibly the chancellor's daughter"
"I possibly drink more than ye!"
"It possible I might stop drinkin today!"All and all it seems good natured leading to many happily drunk commoners::
-
The Lord Chancellor orders all singing bards locked up if they don't stop singing that Kull-Killed-Him-Some-Zombies Song.
-
Along the main towns in the nars, all bards sing in the main inns, the tale of three adventurers that go about by the mighty warrior KULL, and the druids Sald and Belia for defending norwick from a possible undead attack. The bards sing about the bravery shown by both Sald and Belia for fighting dozens of undead minions and last but not least their chieftain, they sing about the epic will to resist all the temptions and offers of unlimited power offered by the very master of the undead
