Whispers at the Fire
-
Labur is seen in the fields talking to farmers, he seems to be negotiating wheat prices.
-
Rain is seen walking gingerly toward the souther gates.
-
Ardent leads her pal away with pancakes and a hug before Loc tosses her in jail or worse, forces Ardent to do it.
"It's okay, you don't have to hurt him, he does it himself pretty much." She glances back warily before whispering.
"You don't want to do time here, trust me. Psychopaths…"
-
With all the yelling, Dwin Dolvak emerges from the Great Hall and speaks quietly to one of the Redcloaks standing nearby, gesturing at the crazed unicorn fanatic.
Keep an eye on that one, lad, seems she's threatening the Guard Commander. We don't need no crazies back here near the barracks… Arrest her if she speaks of harming Loc again.
-
A pissed off unicorn priestess is heard yelling outside the barracks for loc to get his sorry ass outside. "you want to hurt my friends?! ::cracks her knuckles:: outside the gates when you're ready and i'll show you some painful peace and love from lurue.
-
_One of numerous variations of a conversation repeated across town, usually over a couple of drinks:
"Sometimes it seems like the dwarves spring from the ground full grown…although did you see that odd one?"
"What do you mean odd?"
"Well, I mean odd for a dwarf."
"Still not following."
"Well, he had no beard, no armor, no shield, and no giant axe either."
"Are you sure it was a dwarf? Possible it could have been some sort of morbidly obese halfling."
"Judging by the number of goblins in its wake, the amount of ale it consumed, and it's unintelligeble speech, I'm still forced to conclude it was a dwarf."
"Wow. Yeah, that sounds like a dwarf. No beard though?"
"Yeah."
"Weird."
"I know."_
-
Dwin Dolvak hears of a kin in need of armor and lightening his purse.
I've got several kin-sized sets of armor that are doin' nuthin but gatherin' dust when they should be gatherin' dents and greenskin-blood. Tell this black-beard to come see me, I am sure I can find 'im sumtin uselful.
((PM me!))
-
A black bearded dwarf has been in the Grapevine asking local adventurers if they have a decent fullplate of armor they're looking to get rid of before he spends his fortune at The Hold.
" Aye! I'm lookin' fer a real set o' armor! Tell yer friends t'find meself, Hagrim Doomvein, Iffin' thier interested in takin' a few thousand coins off me hands."
-
And someone says they saw Locrian up and around, looking like he was undead…
-
Word is that command of the militia has fallen upon the former militia Commander Albryanna until such a time that the Captain is revived and nursed back to health.
-
Running through Norwick with light limp, the druidess Symo has been seen sprinting with an odd looking wolf-puppy at her side. Those with knowledge about animals could identify it as having small hard plates over its back and head. Having been seen brooding longing for so long, the elf is finally once again seen with a friendly smile on her face, offering aid to adventurers once more.
-
Cecil spends a day or so, while Locrian is being tended by the healers in preparation for when he's ready to return, assuring people in Norwick about the Captain.
"No, he's not gone for good. Not now, anyway. He's just not ready to come back yet, they say, so be patient. You know him, he's too stubborn to do something like stay dead."
He also asks about for Mei's family if she has any in town, and if she does, he personally goes to apologize for not being able to protect her from the dangers of the crypts.
-
Rumor has it that the Norwick militia captain Locrian had fallen when adventuring with Cecil and a young female greencloak. The little selunite Mooncandy had helped with the recovery process. Some time has passed and it seemed the young woman, a helmite warrior from the far east would not be returning, though for the good captain, it still remains to be seen, and his body is currently being preserved within the chauntean temple.
Further rumors can be heard whispered among the norwick militia themselves as it might be possible that the pink-haired barbarian girl herself had pledged to help Cecil as a possible militia prospect, should she be given clearance from other organizations she might be involved in.
-
The emphatic battle cry of an enraged dwarf can be heard frequently west of the gates. An old grim-faced dwarf is often seen coming from the woods badly wounded and covered in blood. Quiet and seemingly detached, he walks through the gates and into the Hold. Not long after, the growling dwarf stomps furiously through the south gate, back into the woods trying to concede to the grim truth.
-
A harried looking young woman escapes from the Grapevine!! She returns the next day, soaking wet, blueskinned, and looking for all the world like an almost drowned Puppy
-
An old dwarf has been seen wondering around Norwick, mostly drinking ale at the Grapevine watching the front door of the inn intently. The eager dwarf has been heard asking commoners if they know the whereabouts of his sword wielding son, Beourn.
-
@520d1432aa=ClownBaby:
Beourn passed away last night after succumbing to his wounds from several hook horrors and magic eaters. He leaves everything in his possession to Vanderkaus.
Yana sadly relays to Vanderkaus that she has Beourn's things, and to see her when he is able

@9ab6d99671=RYM:
Rumor is that the party at Maria's tower was crowded, there was music, singing and a lot of laughs. Known people such as High Priest Rith or the loremaster Val Kyrie were present, as they were some celestials, even a celestial Avoral showed up briefly some say…....
*Maria´s Tower Grand opening party was a success! Part of its success was due to Maria´s big circle of friends, and the other part due the the way it was properly announced all over the region. From Peltarch to Norwick, everyone was aware of the scheduled party. Rumor has it that news of her Tower Grand Opening party traveled all the way till Damara and Thesk Region, it even reached the most Western costal citys of Faerun, such as Waterdeep… Baldur´s Gate and Candlekeep…... *

It's also said, that the party was interrupted by a large force of hobgoblins trying to take the tower. The hobgoblins were defeated quickly.
Some people that went to hobgoblins lands some hours later came back to town speaking about hundreds of hobgoblin corpses, most of them burnt. Not a single hobgoblin they could find there alive…. maybe some mage got mad at the hobgoblins..._
