A rumor travels the Nars.
-
“Have ye heard the latest about that ill-fated Peltarch–Norwick iron-ingot caravan? They say it was cut down in a lightning strike just past Nars Bridge by a ghostly band of ex-Defenders—none left standing but three poor souls. Word among the guards is they found two cold campsites in the woods, but not a soul or scrap of evidence remains. Folks whisper the so-called Renegade Defenders filled their sacks with iron and coin, then vanished miles away—likely already clear of Narfell’s borders by now. Keep your wits about ye on the roads; the shadows still hold secrets of those silent killers."
