Jiyyd Rumors
-
_After the incident, Aelthas is seen standing beside Dalron everytime he is on duty, just nodding silently to any thing Dalron says to him.. after his shift, he is seen heading into the Inn with Dalron.. coming out hours later covered in pieces of potatoe skins all over his clothes.. wandering off to the sisterhood, looking tired.
This seems to go on for a week or so, after that time, he is still seen on duty with Dalron, just not heading to the Inn afterwards._
-
_The Watchman Dalron was seen storming up the hill towards the Council hall, clearly furious.
After hearing how the new guard had been assaulted, he tried to impart how to prevent it from happenening in the future. The tip and advice was met with taunts and insults.
Dalron, furious that the new guard's superiors and mother do nothing to keep him in line, has enough and warns him to stop with the insults.
The final barb from the teenage elf was met with a swat of the blade that nearly took his head off.
After being restrained, Dalron stormed off towards the Council building. He could be heard grumbling that the elf was "too angry at the world and everyone to be militia".
And it may be the last time Dalron tries to impart any advice or training with the newly established guard. Looking for Just'ene to make his complaints clear. He will not be spoken to like that again from a teenage recruit on the job for a month or so.
The rumbling and authoritative voice of Dalron can be heard deep into the night._
-
Words moves around that there was a drow fight out by the crossroads. Apparently a hin spotted them, came running into town, and then he ran off west with a large group of talented warriors. The group later returned, but were rather torn up, and by the looks of things…they lost.
Attentive people will also notice that these same people all seem to be missing an ear. With the exception of one man...who is missing both.
-
MAny Legionarres are seen scurrying out the front gates with envelopes with the legion seal on it.. General Grag and a couple others seem to be wearing extra cloaks and preparing for a long trip something was heard about visiting a old freind up in the mountains…
-
Dentin walked into the gates, warning the Knight on the tower of a mage attack in the fields before the town.. apparantly, said mage simply started casted spells when he passed, yet vanished before Dentin could bring her down.
-
Word spreads that a very large brass dragon appeared at the west gates of Jiyyd recently, much to the worry of several adventurers. Several farmers talk of how Penny Lane waltzed straight up to it with a smile and began speaking to it in Draconic, seemingly trying to make a new friend. It then leapt over the gates and strolled south into the Bat Cave before returning and heading out into the plains where it was last seen. Some say it was looking for a cave to call home.
-
_Gotrek is shouting and moving his axe in circles inside town, like trying to hit something invisible. Guards, alerted by the fact, come quickly to see what's happening.
Gotrek: Ya stupid hin!!.. Tha we'k little bastard tried ta stole my gold!!… Wher's him!?... WHER's HIM!?!?!
Guards were able to calm down Gotrek and warned him about disturbing town peace. They are now also looking for the hin thief._
-
That afternoon, Penny can be seen passing through Jiyyd looking for Dwin, muttering something about a "farkin' gate key".
-
_A mule-drawn wagon makes its way through Jiyyd in the late evening hours. Though cloaked, the 4 escorts are wearing the unmistakable armor and colors of the Norwick Militia.
The wagon passes directly through town to the east, where a passerby says that it went as far as Dwin's farm.
Six hours later, the wagon, now piled high with crates (much to the mule's discomfort) makes its way back through town. Unlike the initial trip, the escorts now have their hands on their hilts and are scanning the area for any signs of danger. They quickly pass through town to the west and are swallowed by the snowy fog.
Several hours later Dwin walks through town with a look of exhaustion and heads straight to the Union hall.
Later that morning, some travellers from the east mention that Dwin's farm looks as if it has been closed up; windows and doors are boarded and the gate has been locked._
-
_A hue and cry is raised in the middle of the night as an adventurer in the swamps returns with a tale of dark dwarves seen moving through the fetid mist.
A band of warriors, clerics, scouts, and a mage is gathered, and head into the mire warily.
For some hours nothing is heard, and then the grim-faced band return, bearing the body of their hin scout with them. Their armor and clothes are blackened and scorched as if by smoke and lightning, and a distinct reek of burned troll still attaches to them.
They proceed to Vroka's and vanish within. Later, the gaunt, fell visage of the knight Kim can be seen speaking to Just'ene. Those close enough to overhear say she spoke of a battle with a dark cleric of the Duergar, and something about 'many trolls'._

-
Helmite soldiers are seen all through the day and night scouring out the town and the Valley. Rumor has it that they are looking for any trail of a sighted Drow within the town's proper.
-
The astute might notice that Keira has been talking to Braeth, Lady Shane and any others regarding Drow-related issues since they appeared on the road threatening harm. The old tale of how Lady Rith sacrificed herself to the drow to save others and the subsequent heroic rescue still has relevance to the orb and weave situation of today.
She's interested in contacting any who speak Drow or have experience of dealing with them maybe with a view to translating messages or questioning captives.
-
Rummors spread of the one many might consider the town loon has not been seen or heard from in quite some time, not since the last festival in Norwick with magic duals came to a halt due to sever wild magic.
-
The latest buzz around the Silver Valley is about the upcoming festival. Rumour has it that Juster, Gonnar and Ginger have planned a scavenger hunt and archery contest for the event. Everyone is welcome to participate.
((Event is scheduled for next Saturday. Start time TBA.))
-
_Aelthas was seen entering town from the east, a body in his arms, covered by a cloak. He headed straight to the sisterhood house and was seen digging a grave.
After some prayers for the dead person, he was seen in town again, his face a mixture of sadness and anger. For the next few days, he is more quiet than usual, simply nodding to people and offering very few words._
-
The next morning, Kara is seen to be entering the town and taking her post on the tower for the morning guard shift. Passers by will note that she has collected quite a number of claw marks along her arms, although the worst appear to have been healed. Rumours talk of a Lioness yesterday and that the militia are keeping an eye on the situation closely.
-
Recently townsfolk can hear a lion's roar echoing in the dead of night sometimes…though only a few claim to have actually seen the beast in question...
-
Over the past week, Jiyyd was visited by a party of drow, who came to deliver a threat to somebody who had killed one of their number never to return to their gates unless he wished to die, and by a formidable-looking undead knight from Mintas, who warned that anyone trespassing in the ruined city would die. Anybody who planned to visit the drow city or Mintas Rhelgor to shop at the market and admire the architecture should take note.
-
Juster wonders where is friend Eridith went, along with her trouble making blue friend.
-
The familiar face of a yound elven lass who seemed to spend the great majority of her time in Jiyyd is now gone, as is the annoying blue creature that followed her.
