Jiyyd Rumors
-
Some kind of magical powers make an Orc appear and dissapear inside the gates on Jiyyd…everybody seemed to be quiet confused...and suddenly lighting storms fall on Nathander Steel and the Jiiyd Guardsman and make them dissapear...after some time of confusion, a bunch of orcs (about 30) "appeared" directly inside the gates of jiiyd...they were quicly defeated.
5 strange portals apperared and beetlees, skeletons, and orcs, appeared throw them. After beeing them all defeated, someone had the explendid idea of sending Gonnar throw the main portal....
A sorcerer called Lortaine casted inv spell on him, and he went throw the portal...after some minutes waiting Gonnar appears again...
It seamed the portal was an uncontolled magic portal which teleports people and monster here and there...random...
Someone heard Gonnar asking the magic portal for some food...curiosly, some fish and coocked food appeared magicaly in front of him some seconds after he asked for it......

Another swarm of elementals strikes Jiyyd…..though this time not of air and water, but of earth and fire. The sky is dark, but the town is illuminated (and some buildings conflagrated) by raging fires and shaken by rumbling earthquakes. Another offering is made to the Seldarine, and the storm abates, leaving behind it charred defenders and a delerious and heatstricken elven priest.

Drelan can be seen describing the storms too many as evidentally he has weathered two. They always come about like a very bad thunder storm, then elementals begin to appear around the well, in greater and greater strength until the storm finally finishes. What seems to be the end of the storm he doesn't know, but he warns all when engaging the water elementals within stepping distance to hold their breathe's and to create greater distance as soon as possible or they'll drown.
The most recent one had very strong winds knocking down most that did not seek shelter in the eve of a building or near a tree.
He also scoffs at an elf's claims that "some crazy pirates or sailors" are causing the storm, saying that is highly unlikely as several of these ilk also engaged, some falling in an attempt to protect jiyyd.
Not a one of these odd storms has passed from what he's seen without there being casualties, and should be engaged with all caution.

Raryldor doesn't seem to mind the puddles, more than happy enough to plot down right in the middle of one and look at the sky
-
_Another storm swept into Jiyyd, sending thunder rumbling in the skies and lightning crashing to the ground. Trees lost many of their leaves as the fierce winds left them cold and naked.
Another rift opened to the plane of air, elementals swarming through, the the most common sized near felling many defenders, and the largest doing so.
It was many hours of battling in the windswept conditions before the priest of Corellon, Raryldor, managed to make an offering to Aerdrie of the Seldarine to close the rifts. His prayers were answered, and Jiyyd was safe once more - though the elven cleric was left without a cloak.
The next days, the ground remained saturated and filled with puddles. Those in Jiyyd were advised to wear thick boots, waxed against water._

Vrocka and Finnius discover that a newly mergent illness can be treated in the early stages with Remove Disease where as earlier cases must have been too advanced for such to work. It usually takes Fenberries made into a paste and consumed to keep the symptoms from returning, wheher it is an early stage or advanced stage form (which was found to be treatable with Clarity and Restoration or better only) The trouble is the early stages are not disgnguishable from a common cold. So few owuld seek help in time for the simplest remedies to work. Vroka senther findings out in letters to other healers around Narfel should they encounter this sickness too.
Word from Pelt confirms Vrock's fears, it is far more wide spread then simply Jiyyd and it doesn't even have a name yet. For simplicity'sake she refrers to it in her nots as Clover's Curse, since the stories of its origins seem to revolve around some little girl named Clover..

The man locked in iron mask could be seen visiting the temple. He went inside then simply walked off.
-
The screaming in the Temple stops, the room unlocked and empty. A young acolyte girl has gone missing.

@16ada74c3d=Vortext:
The sickness of the children grows. Now another victim of some arcane malady lies in the healers hut, tended by the gentle hands of Vroka. Mirkali consulted and tried many paths that Vroka could not but none showed any effect save that of remove fear.
A possible lionkage to Clover has been theorized but nothing solid concluded. What was discovered was that fenberries seemed to at least hold back the development of the disease. This seemed to the concept that the game of 'fruit basket' with clover might have had a secondary effect.
The trio of Gonnar, Sy, and Jerr set out to find some fenberries to see if they could aid the healer. A day later they arrived back at the hut with three baskets, each carefully labelled.
basket 1. Collected just before dawn, harvested with an adamantite dagger. Location was on the hill just outside the temple of the four winds.
basket 2. Ground variety found in the pixie glen of Norwick. Again harvested with the dagger. Time was midmorning.
basket 3. Climbing variety found on the cliff edges in the spider forest. Harvested with a normal dagger, just after sundown.
Each of the baskets were clean and carefully labelled and jerr dropped them off, hoping for the best. He comes and goes from the healing hut, always looking a bit concerned . . . but distracted.
After a few days, Vroka has a few things to report in the progress of her two patients. The boy, Henry and the man, she has come to fknow as Alvaro, both seem to be recoperating and reovering from their illnesses just fine. But only after she used up all of the fenberries of the third basket tot reat them in conjunction with castings of Greater Restoration. The fienberries he tried from the first wo baskets didn't seem to have any effect at all and she had tried them first.
The casting of Clarity as , the bard Mirkali had suggested toher, proved to take hte fear slant away from their manifested dreams but without Restoration theman stilll reerted back intoa comtose state, manifesting whateer he was dreaming around him as real. He managed to manifestt what Vroka could only guess to be his family, a rather disturbing sequence of scantily clad women. That is whee Vroka drew the line much to her colleague's disappointment and she tok ot casting Restoration upon the man. Vroka did start treating Henry with Claritya s wel too though until she could experiment through the basekts of fenberries.
Alavaro never head of this Clover girl, while Henry appears to be one of the playmates Clover was seen by a few playing around various towns and cities around Narfel with. Between talking to the two Vroka is pretty sure there's way more where they came from and isn't sure that alll the Fenberries in Narfell could cure them all or which of the details knownof the Fenberries from the third basket made them work and the others not. If it was the location or such, then there was some real hurt to come stilll.

…::Nathen Wingates, Kara Du'Monte, Lilin Roger, Evendur Mildsilver, Mirkali Vragnorich, as well as many more were seen on the rock just outside of Jiyyd, speaking of both casual and serious conversation. After roughly two hours of casual speach, there was an orc attack! With large sniper orcs, large axe holding orcs, and large magi orcs. There were no tiny orcs::
::The folks retreated further back into town, and defended accordingly. When barraged with catapults of firey death, the group of valiant, do-gooder heroes decided to take the fight to the orcs. Alas, rumor has it that when they came back, there were talking about duerger, and not orc. One can only wonder, the tiny possibility that the orcs might of been running away from the duerger, who were raiding the orcish territories?::

Legion Major Mog and Yolande were seen talking with a young lady by the Jiyyd wall in hushed tones but when onlookers came over to see what was going on the three of them quickly left for the Legion Hall. Some 15 minutes passed before the three emerged. It was said Mog's left hand was covered in fresh blood and look quite distressed with Yolande trying to reassure him. The unknown lady quickly disappeared. Rumor also has it that a sizable pool of blood about the size of a plate was found on the Legion hall floor.
-
Another storm rocked Jiyyd the other day. The storm's fury didn't quite match that of the previous storm, however there was one alarming incident. A hin mage of some power launched a lightning spell into the storm, causing a chain reaction of lightning arcs in the clouds which culminated in a powerful blast hitting the ground, slightly burning the mage.
The mage along with a few others then sent multiple lightning spells into the clouds. A massive reaction of lightning arced through the clouds and blasted downward in two powerful strikes which badly hurt the gathered crowd, resulting in one death.

Vrocka, looking after a very sick little boy, seems mystified at the little boy's case. Henry is his name and he has al the symtpoms af a bad cold and yet no divine blessings have worked to cure him. Henry's cold isn't all that normal, monstrous plants that he claims are trying to eat him manifest around him from time to time. Usually when he's sleeping. Only spells of Restoration or Greater Restoration have proven to have any efect at all and theiy only seem to alleviate the symtpoms for a time.
The only time Henry is awake is after one of these spells has been cast upon him., it seems as its efffects wear off and his symptoms return he inevitablly fals back into a deep un disturbable sleep. As best Vroka can guess from taking with the boy the few times they've had him awake, the monstrous plants recurring nightmares he's always had but they've grown more freequent since he got sick.
Henry talks of a girl anemed Clover, a blue-haired half-elven girl, he and other children were playing with. Apparently, most of them caught this cold, eve Clover. And from what Vrocka has learned of Clover so far, she doesn't think Henry's nightmares manifested themselves before he got sick.
She's working with herbal supplies she has on hand and extra the druid, Oreth was genrous enough to donate to help Henry. Vrocka hasn't had any luck so far finding an herbal remedy but she's still trying..

Slow rumors spread that before the storm broke, Grag and Sy'wyn were seen carrying the elven bard Sil between them to the temple of helm. Those nearby even say they heard Grag hitting something and yelling something about out demons! Whatever happened behind the doors is kept quiet though. Many saw Grag leave in robes and with his symbol out. Later Sy'wyn and Lyte were seen leaving, the elf priest's hood pulled almost low enough to hide a dark look on his face. Some saw him turn and trace something lightly on the door to the temple that glowed softly before fading from sight.
-
Rumors have it young Major Lyte of the Legion has been seen pacing near the doors to the Temple of Helm, sword and shield drawn, looking altogether deadly serious. Some conjecture arrises as to what this might forebode, with some citizens wonder if she might wish to join Helm's following.
-
Rumors are heard that the icey monk Keira has a thing for the loyal Priest Elith
-
_The duergar attack under cover of storm and darkness. They were heroically repelled by Grag, Uchi, Vall, Sy'wyn, Aghila, Dante and the slightly reluctant assistance of Keira.
In the silence and aftermath people may have noticed Keira pause near the temple for a while before nodding approvingly and moving onward._
-
_Strange sounds can be heard behind a locked door in the temple of helm.
Whimperings and foreign, pleading languages can be heard, punctuated by horrid screams. Although muted by the door, the screams are painful to the ear and invoke an unnamed dread._
-
tala can be heard talking to Arandor
That must have been one strong breeze. I've never seen Ael fall over to a bugbear let alone a breeze… and his armor is uhm bulky. Glad we missed it.
