Whispers at the Fire
-
_One night, a white haired fellow leaves the Greathall of Norwick, hand in hand with a red headed half-elven maiden. The two head straight to the inn for a night's rest from… portal exaustion? Either way, the two appear to be happy, though a bit tired.
The next morning, the white haired gentleman is seen heading back into the Great Hall once again, seeming to stay in there for quite a while into the night. Once he leaves, his expression is very grim.._

Groups of Iron Chain Clan halfers can be seen entering Norwick to replace others that are returning from a night of patrol in the woods. The group beeing replaced can be seen entering norwick from the south gate, showing evidence of beeing involved in skirmishes with whatever lurks behind the trees and bushes at the cover of the dark night. These barbarian warriors look weary and their armors and wepons are stained with the blood of whatever they´ve fought and slain

Sightings of a great and terrible wolf roaming about the Rawlins occur every couple days. They say its paws are bigger than a hin's skull. Footprints leading to and from aat least one farm with missing livestock support that much. Other stories claim the creature is at least two stories tall with eyes of flame and teeth as long as greatswords. No one can agree on just how big it really is…just that i'ts is.. big..really big...and hungry.
Grak is tapping his large belly on the campfire
"Ya heards them rumors, eh? Har har, of course ya haves, because ya bunch bes such rumormongering wenches yarself.Snickers a bit

Rumor has it that Lana Ogden, Tristina, and several guards have been arrested and charged with treason.

The guardsman Rupert has begun circulating rumors that his normally very boring shift in the Great Hall was livened by the sudden and inexplicable appearance of the Imperceptor Zanetar Den 'Kath the other day.
The priest came out of thin air, said good day, and left.
Curious.

After recent events, Cherry Holimioin, usuallyhappily absorbed in motherhood of late, works extra hard to get herself back into fighting shape. She often trades helping out in the Grapevine kitchen for extra babysitting help when she has hers and Aramuil's three children in town.
-
Eli has been seen walking out of Norwick with her eyes to the ground and most of her hair covering her ashamed face.
-
word has it that Norwick was attacked by goblins in the very same day the Iron Chain Clan half-orcs were NOT allowed to patrol the woods and banned from norwick for the duration of one day, by an Elf Norwick Scout named Eliliam Ama . When asked why the ICC halfers didnt patroled the area where goblins usualy roam about, Arak´Hur simply blaims the elf scout and says that she´s the responsable for such attack
-
Arak´Hur and his boys can be seen entering norwick to patrol the woods as they have done for the past month. He enters norwick holding a letter with Norwick´s chancellor seal. Passing by Eliliam Ama, he nods and grins a toothy grin at her as he passes by
-
Rumors around the barracks and the fire speak of Chaevre's recent deceit and treachery and even her arrest and banning from the realm for an incident involving the hinnak. No official word about any of this has been heard from the Great Hall.
-
A story springs up, telling of a swift and decisive strike against a bugbear camp in the woods. The general of the legion, Grag leading a small band of adventures in a fearsome assault that dealt quick pain to the bugbears. The band withdrew rapidly, though, when a new threat appeared. Strong and mighty bugbears, accompanied by screeching banshees chased the group out of the woods, their prize clutched firmly in their hands, though: A couple of cloaks, red like those of the militia.

@a89980cc19=metagod:
Chaevre' Vaelen was seen heading south with another mage, some time later she returned carrying a statue of a hinnak. Seems she plans to either sell it, study it, or use it for interrogation, or maybe all of the above who is to know.
After a while of indecision she nails a "do not touch" note to the hinnak statues shield and drags it over near the trade hall
Not long afterwards, the Chancellor and a few advisers exit the Great Hall to see the situation. Dwin snaps his fingers, and several guards carefully carry the statue into the great hall, with a blanket draped over it.
((if Chavre is around, she'd be "invited" to come speak to the chancellor immediately ((PM me)). If not, word would spread that the Chancellor was far from happy and wants to speak to her.))
-
Rumors of undead elves, a duergar captive, and many skirmishes with various bugbear troops reaches the town. It is rumored a certain half orc General single handedly whipped over a score of bugbears, and the noise of all manner of combat has been taking place south and south east of Norwick.

An elf in golden armor comments:
I simply do not see why the orc did not just kill Ostramogg. If he will not play fair, neither should we.. it could've been over with one single stroke with the axe..
-
Myeil seems amused by the latest story of Grag's exploits
I really must wonder just how surprised those vermin would be if I had augmented Grag's considerable abilities with magic.
Passerby are treated to one of the most unusual events in the land, Myeil's laughter. It isn't very pleasant.

When news reaches Telli's ears she cheers… HU-AH!....

Bards and common folks speak by the fires and inns of Ostertag the Coward! Rumor has it his strongest guard chalLenged Grag to a duel if won he would be granted passage. Once loosing Grag was invited inside osterdoggs fortress. Suddenly it is said grag was ambushed by 6 more of his strongest axe weilding fiends! "If grag can defeat 6 at once they must be weak! Look how old and fat grag is he can hardly move his feet!!" "His axe chopped them in two let us all join forces and defeat osterdogg too!"

Cray appears by the fire in Norwick one morning, wearing an old Eastlander Bandit uniform for, "Shites and giggles," he says. He squints at the sun, and rubs some kind of sun protection on his stone white skin while he lounges around all day. He seems content on reading from a tome and chatting up any others who gather round the fire. He stares at the horses, exclaiming "Back'ome our mounts 'ave twice as many legs and four toimes as many eyes." He seems to enjoy receiving glares from would be do gooders as he smoke his cigars with a sinister half smile.
