3. Whispers at the Fire

Whispers at the Fire


  • ::rumors spread of the Captain meeting with all of the guards and a select few militia members in the barracks. They were seen entering the barracks then leaving a short while later and heading back to their assigned posts. A sence if urgency was about all of them but a smile could be seen on several faces::


  • Lucidious spends a few evenings standing on the platform at the south gate practicing what appears to be some kind of formal speech. As he whispers words in elven, he makes a series of elegant gestures that would perhaps seem more appropriate for a formal gathering. He often stops in the middle of the speech too cross out and then rewrite sections of text in a book near his pack. After each edit, he starts the speech again from the beginning, trying to get the words and motions just right. Each night he seems unsatisfied with the results of his work and heads back to the Boarshead with a defeated look about him.


  • the town cryer gives the news that a very large reward with be offered in relation to the murders and the suspect wearing 'golden' boots

  • S

    Odd and jumbled rumors float around town about a serial killer prowling for young women, as well as a town guard being killed. The common description seems to be of a human male with gold boots, although accounts vary wildly between each telling.


  • Lucidious is seen inspecting the damage to the temple looking for any odd metallic debris. He scribbles some notes into his book then makes his way back to Norwick. He stops to speak with the guards at the north gate for a moment before making his way into town.


  • Rumour has it that atleast two mages attacked the Kelemvorite temple with fireballs


  • Zyphlin is heard remarking by the fire one day how Kegs were magically sprouting from the ground, following his every footstep, and seeming to have some kind of intellegence before igniting and trying to fry him alive. Most thought he was doing a clever bit of comedy.

  • E

    many dead half cooked things begin to litter parts of the Rawlins for those with sharp eyes. Gobblins mostly, occaisionally a saurial or lizard. Some drunks speak of a bright creature roaming the rawlins attacking anything it comes accross with lightning from its mouth.


  • Word begins to spread about something happening at the Kelemvorite Shrine. Exactly what it is, no one knows for sure, but apparently all the people there seem quite on edge.


  • Dwin is seated at the fire, on duty of course, scanning the skies for large black birds of prey.

    Heard a rumor t'day in the Boar.

    Now, the source aint all that reputable, but it still sent a bit of a shiver down me spine. Seems there's some crazy wiggler in the forest turnin' greenskins invisible so they can sneak up and …

    Dwin mimes a slw cut across his throat

    Best keep yer ears open fer "icka icka" because ya ain't gonna be seein' em!


  • Rando hears of Nicahh and her request and send one of his men to seek her out and request she seeks out the Lord Protector

    Guard " The Lord Protector wishes to see you in his halls"


  • Nicahh is once again seen carrying a bundled package through Norwick. However this time, she is seen coming from the woods, holding a tiny bundle, soft cries filling the air. Rumors spreads that a caravan had been attacked by goblins, and that the survivors had been held hostage in Skara's cave. When a small group arrived to rescue them, the only living soul left was a small half elven baby girl who was about to be sacrificed upon an altar. Nicahh is heard requesting to post a sign in Norwick, in hopes of finding the baby's parents.

  • E

    Many note a man in black and gold armor praying by the south Norwick wall outside the gates often mentioning the name Yol to the air. Why he is doing such no one seems to know.


  • The guards whisper about Hedia and Nicahh seen heading south towards the elvish encampment with what appeared to be a lifeless elf wrapped in a cloak being carried in Nicahh's arms.


  • Belade goes around telling people that the final date for their entries is fast approaching, and that even if they don't have any talent for art, why not give it a try? 4000 gold is a nice sum to win, along with a secret price by Lacey…

    //you have 'till thursday people, come on 😛


  • It seems word is spreading that Wendy has been murdered. 3 armed men were seen fleeing town through the south gate and then all sign of them was lost as they disappeared into the woods.

    Word of the body being taken into the barracks by the lady Niccah, a man known as Equinox, and the Captain is quickly followed by descriptions of loud noises from within the building as well as tales of the building itself being shaken on its very foundation. Shortly after, the 3 were seen leaving the barrack looking none to pleased and rather disturbed, none of them carrying a body.

    Anyone appraoching the barrack is told it is closed to all but the guard, the captain, and the protectorate. An aura of uneasiness seems to suround the whole place.


  • Gurt was seen paying one of the locals to build a small sign for him. He was later seen carry said sign out of town.


  • Dentin asks those in the town, and the town's guard, that should anyone encounter a young man in Defender plate by the name of "Luke", to send word to him or Captain Fredric.


  • Krig overhears the guard as he strolls through town and shakes his head.

    Did ye nay hear the rumor? He be wantin the best, and that would be me.


  • One of the Lord Protectors guards says

    "seek out the Lord Protector, he is a Master weaponsmith"
