Whispers at the Fire
-
- Two dwarves showing the scars, dents and bandages of recent battle sit around the fire. On a pike in front of them is a head with 1 eye. It resembles some sort of hobgoblin, but one can't really be sure.
The ale drinking dwarves use the head as a prop, moving its jaw to speak to the others around the fire.
Apparently the Chancellor wants his magic adviser to take a peek at "Blinky". Considering the surprising amount of damage it dished out before being dismembered, the hobber (or what's left of it) earned a second look. *

Again, a long patrol performed by Iron Chain Clan leader Arak´Hur and one of his clan members of his name Argaath Drob plus two humans that go about by the name Hijira and Mourgrim have been seen patroling the woods around Norwick and fighting off those who opose them. Former militia soldier, Locrian Danister , has been seen supervising their patrol

An Iron Chain Clan members, Arak´Hur, Gruul Korvak , Aarght Drob and two other humans, have been seen patroling Old Norwick Ruins. During the entire night, sounds and battle crys have been heard. At the crack of dawn, the Group of half orcs is seen returnin from their patrol

*The elven woman Lyte, in Legion black and blue plate, has been seen often around the southern gates of Norwick, offering a hand and watching carefully the drow driven hobgoblin feints in recent weeks.
She has rumored to have been spotted often along the western pass around the town, checking out this alternate route between the northern and southern gates of the city for signs of infiltration by enemy forces.*

*word has it that a big charriot with a secret cargo entered in Norwick and after an heated discussion with the Guard-recruits that where on duty at the time of its passage, Militia Guard Davos ordered the cart to pass as fast as possible, and it headed to the river boat area.
Shouts, screams, yells and bright lights have been heard and seen from that area, and as quickly as it all began… it stoped, abruptaly.
Peltarch Senator Ronan Redralen has been seen leaving the river boat area, followed not long after by some members of the Iron Chain Clan, lead by Arak´hur and two more of his clansmen named Grakk and Gruul*
-
Word has it a cheerful, giggling dwarf made yet another visit to the Norwick Jail. He seems quite amused when he catches word Devlin has been killed, in fact he seems to think he foresaw it and -warned- Devlin…but oh, well. He also tells the prison guard he'd like to speak with Dwin...and that Dwin might have to come to him, since he's...heh heh heh.. a bit tied up at the moment.

@1e8c7805d4=Rando:
Word has it the Col Devlin was killed fighting Greys. People would have seen Rando carrying a body back wearing a Red Cloak to the healers
Upon hearing this Benji spouts
What <g>the fark</g> are Greys?
-
_Yngdír was one of the original four, he had decided that to leave the gate would be a breach of his ethics - and remained behind.
He would later be seen returning with the badly injured three, though unharmed himself._
-
One of the three adventurers who took part in destroying the altar of Cyric was Metusalem. This old man in colors of sun keeps his everlasting grin on his toothless face when he tells in his personal way.
"Tee-hee, sun there now. Yesyes, no black sun anymore. Sunny deeds, sunny deeds"
-
After a brief bit of conversation at the fire about the validity of bothering to guard the gate, Four figures walk south, leaving a Temposan standing by the fire.
There was talk about how guarding the gate was useless against Drow, but somebody seemed to have forgotten the numerous hobgoblin, goblin, and other critters that have attacked lately too, else they may have had more concern.
Three of the adventurers then left the gates, saying something about a lion, and returned later with the armor of a couple cyricists, and tell of defeating them and breaking their altar, apparently with the lead Cyricist on it.
Ouch.
Cecil the guard recruit heads off to the hall afterwards to report.

Maya immediately drops what she is doing, and accompanies Rando to the healers.

_The hooded dwarf takes mental notes. Every now and again he makes some marks on nearby rock formations with his staff. There is a sizzle heard as the staff seems to burn the rock.
The dwarven runes seem to mean something to the two dwarves and seem to all point to a few spots.
A rudimentary chart as to the purpose of the spot and what is to go there._
-
In the early morning hours, the Chancellor (noticeably lacking his gold cloaked guards) can be seen taking long walks with a hooded dwarf, pointing out landmarks, making what one would assume are plans for defensive positions. The two keep mostly to themselves and retreat to the Great Hall by the time most farm workers and other Norwickians start their daily routines.
-
Kresha is looking for Colonel Desario. It seems there is a matter regarding gold and other items from her fall to be cleared up.
-
There are small talks about that new elven lass who joied the militia as a recruit.She was wearing some very revealing clotes when she followed Comander Devlin in the barracks and came out dressed in black leather from head to toes.
One of Farmer says he spoke to her before and that her name is Firdrya and she is one gorgeous lass.
An other say that she was seen coming back from a small expedition into some crypt.

*A Large force of Goblins attacked Norwick. It all began when a goblin assasin sneaked up in Norwick and tried to kill a citizen that was standing next to the crafters hall entry door. He was quickly downed by a group of citizens that were sitting by the fire talking with a small patrol party composed of 3 Half-orcs, members of the feared half orc clan named… The Iron Chain Clan.
Their leader, Arak´Hur, saw this attemp of murdurer and lead the other two half-orcs, Argath Drob and Gruul korgak to a patrol. Followin the party of half orcs, a bigger group composed of the citizens that were sitting by the fire headed south aswell.
A big battle against an insurgent hord of Goblins happened next to the south gate, 2 or 3 members of the goup of the city vigilantes, were knocked unconscious by the goblins, but non of them were kidnaped, mainly thanks to the group of Half orcs that fought off the invading force of goblins.
After the battle was done, the 2 group returned to Norwick, to boast about their dids in battle.
