Whispers at the Fire
-
Three fish have appeared in very particular, peculiar places throughout Norwick's South Valley. Why they are there is a complete mystery, for now.

Aramuil seems to be back, and looking none of the worse for the wear. Strangely, the Aramuil also seems to now have a pet chicken, who seems quite content to wander about the area around his house.
Dietrick is often spotted near Aramuil's house, eyeing said chicken with a hungry look

-
Rumour trickles along farmer's wives and milkmaids that somebody was farking murdered in the inn. At least, that's what they heard.
-
_A goggled hin has been going around town, assuring people that Aramuil is okay, and to not worry about the chicken… whatever that means. Some think he's mad, but those who take the time to listen will probably work it out.
A trio of dwarves, clad in silver armor and draped with golden cloaks, were seen entering the Dwarven Hold and heading to the inn. Word of battles done, and a wish to find more of their clan can be heard amongst the din of the drinkers.
The songstress Val Kyrie hasn't been seen much of late, but word has it she's working in the Crafters Union Hall, and spending time with her apprentices where possible._
-
About one of the fires, a dwarven woman is heard.
_….aye, there was a great swarm o' th' greenskins tha' apparently b' after a pink-haired-nae-pants-wearin'-trollop....they hit th' gates hard....an' made it t' th' inner gates....but th' brave dwarven guardsman an' his companion wit' th' 'elp o' some o' th' local longshanks fought back th' horde.
From where I was up there, mannin' th' catapult....I could see m' kin's bravery, an' th' actions o' th' others....truly a sight t' behold as th' guards an' th' other longshanks waded hip deep in o' sea o' greenskins.
Next time y' see m' kinsmen an' 'is companion Timmot, b' sure t' b' thankin' them fer all th' work they b' doin' fer th' safety 'o this 'ere town._
She takes a final swig of a full bodied ale and departs, heading towards the Dwarven Hold.
-
_Unnerved guards are heard to say that Aramuil and Wren went into the Great Hall to talk about something.
Nobody is clear on what they discussed or when Wren departed, but they say the last anyone saw of Aramuil was a glowing, rippling hole in the air devouring him whole while fanged cats sang songs about skulls and knuckles.
Aramuil has not been seen since._
-
Aramuil, strangely, is no where to be seen. Also oddly, the Norwick militia seem to have a new pet chicken, that spends most of its time clucking about the barracks and Great Hall areas.

… a lone hin with goggles was seen ...
Benji comments.
"Well I don't remember … doing those things ..."
He squints at the ground for a moment then looks up.
" <g>An imposter!"</g>
-
_An incident at the South Gate earlier saw multiple fire elementals running after people, who attacked them with weapons, whilst a lone hin with goggles was seen dragging barrels of water from the inn in town to use against them to great effect.
Afterwards, he seemed to evaluate the scenario and make some notes in a book, commenting on the idiocy of the lint economy._

A couple of citizens were witnessed to accuse Apollo of using illegal methods to gain social power in Norwick.They also threatened his life in hope of making him quit.The tall priest of Oghma answered in calm tone,telling them they shouldn't be afraid of him.Especially in the case he had such ''ambitions''.
If asked,close persons to him admit they are worried of his intentions cause he never again had made contacts with such many and wealthy people,and locals…
-
Despite all the constant attack to Norwick, the south gate was again a place of joy… at last for a Dwarf.
After more than 3 years as an apprentice, Vanderkaus was accepted as a member of the Crafter’s Union.
After receiving his key and a very well made electrum carving knife, he was seem heading towards the gates looking for some friends to share the news.
There from the top of the archer tower, and showing a child like smile, he announced his acceptance to all those that were there.
Then, he headed inside town, and was spotted looking for more and people to tell the news, and bringing a few ale bottles with him
… some of them were obviously, empty.
- Eh, cant wait for everyone to start drinking.

_Loafers around the south gates staggered out to gawp at a strange sight… someone had piled a stack of crates and barrels in a great heap, with signs in front of it bearing the enticing message:
**FOR SQUEKKS
LOTS OF SKINS AN COAL
I ATEN'T A TRAP**
After some wary circling and debate on what to do, in the end the bystanders watched as a deer wandered up to the heap.
The explosion shook the woods for quite some distance, but none save the deer were hurt._

Rumours have it that Apollo often walks around Norwick's places, visiting locals and whole families.He is discussing unknown things and when is ''proper'' gives some gold and leaves satisfied.Among taverns is being said that he bribe citizens for something political.
-
Eve has been seen sitting at the bar in Grapevine Inn quite often lately, sipping on a glass of wine. She appears to be deep in thought and every time someone enters the establishment she takes a quick glance to see which new traveller has wandered in. The often ditzy elf's demeanor seems to have changed a little as she becomes more quiet and more contemplative.
-
Rain has been seen chatting to other Redcloaks about the recent Duergar assassination attempts on a certain elf at the southern gates.
-
The elf, Eve, was seen in the company of guards recently. Some are saying the ditzy elf has been asking about a job with the Militia. Others discount those rumors and say she's dating one of the Redcloaks.
-
Apollo lately is often seen wandering in Norwick,enjoying his daily walks.Some adventurers saw him entering houses that belong to reach,wealthy people.Later on,he is returning with a satisfied smile on his face.
