Jiyyd Rumors

@4a93a81def=acmefalls:
Crop circles appear over night in Norwick's fields. Strange geometric shapes or symbols best viewed from the air or a hill… On the plants laid down and immediately surrounding the crop circle, a bioluminous fungal blight has taken root. It casts a pale blue glow at night.
Grak is at Jiyyd campfire, roasting mutton and claiming "Grak's bench" wholly with his large frame
"Oi, Grak knew that dem shorties and land-thiefs of northen town were up to no good. Have ya gits heard about their newest trick, eh? They be growing something most vile at those fields they recently stole from others. Something so sinister, that they keeps constant military escort there, keeping nosy non-northern towners away".
Grak always told ya that they were as crooked as diseased shortys nose! How long we have to take this kind of insolence, eh? Why other towns doesnt force them to burn downs all of their crop-fields.
thinks a bit and continues
"Whut happens when they feed their meat-animals with their special-crops, eh? Or worse, when they eats it themselfs! Surely them crops be enchanted and dem north-towners are up to no good. Grak says we bar town gates from such fiends and keep our crossbows nocked!"

A gaggle of enthusiastic gnomes and hins marched out of Jiyyd, lead by the jewelled Gilda Haven. Upon returning, the merry shouts of gem-hunting had faded, and most wore grave and disturbed expressions. The reasons for this change of mood was apparant to all, as a solemn frost mephit hauled the corpse of one human into the healers, along with the flayed hides of both humans and a gnome. Hungry hobgoblins are pointed out as the culprits.
-
Aramuil and a large group went to the ruins of Mintas Rhelgor; Aramuil said he wanted to examine the ruins. The group came backa little scratched up, but loaded up with hides and meat; Aramuil was speaking of starting an "excavation" of Mintas Rhelgor, how very odd.
-
Generals Lyte and Theaon of the Royal Troff Legion can be seen leading groups of Legioniers east out of town with wagons and tools over the past few weeks. If asked, they explain there is no cause for alarm…just some new security precautions going into place out beyond the farmlands for the town's welfare.
-
A bit of a commotion happened when a tearful mother spoke of the disappearance of her daughter, prompting a large group of adventurers to set out and save the child. They returned more than a day later with the child, and there is talk of Selune, a werewolf and three tests.
-
A tearstricken Rhistin is seen scurrying from the Jiyyd crafting hall. A couple of minutes later, Sald was seen searching the fire and the rest of town.
-
A few faint rumblings might also have been felt from the area near Mintas Rhelgor, and some hours later a bruised, battered, and partially chewed group trudge into town with weary and dispirited steps, carrying the mauled bodies of C'Tan, Jerrick and Mordechai. Not much is spoken of what transpired in the ruins, though it seems to have lead to some form of disagreement between Aelthas and Lycka, the two spouses leaving Jiyyd separately for once.
-
Rumor has it an elf and human were seen running eastward towards the cold stone mountains. Some say large rumblings could be heard coming off the mountains. Though the where abouts of the two in question remain unknown.
-
the young squire known as Calen can be seen wearing regular clothing or shorts traveling from the creek to the temple with buckets and rags. if the priest Sigmund is asked he says that Calen is serving at the Temple for now and his only time away is for his knight training.

_A small group of adventurers came through the eastern gates of Jiyyd, looking battered and bruised. One of them carrying the corpse of a fallen. Apparently they had just returned from a trip to the mountains.
One of the group seemed to be cursed with lycanthrope after she was seemingly brought back to life. She was eventually caught by a paladin of Helm, who brought her back to the healer's, Vrocka working on a cure. It is reported that she will be all right, and returned to normal.
Another of the group, a white haired mage, seemed to stubbornly stay near the gates, even though he was gravely injured and covered in blood. He seemed to be mumbling something about the possibility of undead giants coming. Though a red-haired half-elven scout seemed to not allow him to be stubborn, and she dragged him off toward the healers… the both of them were not seen leaving the healer's at least a day or two later.
Onlookers wonder what type of force could cause such damage to a group. Snowgoblins? Or was something else involved?_
-
At the recently attacked helmite temple in Jiyyd, Rhiannon was seen bringing a small parcel inside, and emerging some time later with Calen, the two of them seen sitting close and chatting.
One small rumor states they may have been sitting very close indeed.
-
Dondiah and Oreth were seen walking into the swamp last night in full armor and laiden with protective spells. Later that night they emerged, filthy, muddy and tired. Dondiah had a victorious look apon her face and then they parted ways.
-
Legion Private Calen is seen walking around Jiyyd on his daily patrols usually followed around by the new legion recruit Fayde. with each of the townsfolk he talks to he explains the new recruit can understand basic communication, however with words she does not explain she will ask and the easiest way to communicate is to show her what you are talking about then repeat it. He has also been seen entering and exiting the Helmite Temple regularly again.
-
Telli becomes concerned over the recent rumors circulating about her fellow Chauntea follower.
-
Rumours start coming in that a giant metal golem rampaged through Jiyyd, killing several guardsmen and women who got in it's way before running through Norwick, turning one brave soul to stone, and heading into the Rawlins to kill goblins.
It voiced several instructions, including one to destroy Norwick, and one to destroy Spellweaver Keep whilst on it's rampage.
It seems to have been created by a Calendal, whoever that is or was.
-
((Why don't people start new threads any more? So much easier to keep track of things))
-

A sign appears next to the hull of the ship

-
Aramuil makes a rare appearance in Jiyyd to examine the odd ship, he spends several hours speaking to the crew and examining the craft.
-
Benji does a double take seeing the wreckage. He slowly puts the pieces together in his head making sense of what happened.
He approaches the crew and adjusts his glasses.
