Jiyyd Rumors
-
… returning from the orc lands a band of three companions walked through the gates of Jiyyd. One, a very large and particulary ugly half orc, was first seen looking for Basha, then he was heard muttering something about careless people who left their belongings unguarded out in the wilds. On a closer look one could se the halforc wearing a black and golden armor carrying two backpacks on his back. He was also muttering something about him going to hold it for a time incase the rightful owner should return and crave the things in the pack.
//Kronk now holds the inventory to a backpack found on the orc plains just south-west of Jiyyd. Due to it beeing heavy he will hold it for one week from today before selling the items or giving them away//

_For the past three or four tendays, give or take, there has been a man dressed in a dark green, hooded cloak about town, mostly inhabiting a stool in the Regal Whore and partaking in the bar's wares. A casual glance can surmise that the man is of a slightly above average height, a slim build, and has a full, black, trimmed goatee with an strange crimson sheen. While shadowed beneath his hood mostly, and completely invisible when he is hunched over a table with a drink, one can sometimes catch his eyes – black and sullen -- and see the red-orange glimmer of flame in them.
He came into Jiyyd in a casual fashion, giving everybody and everything a calm once-over and nodding to himself a bit, seeming to assess and appraise the town. He sometimes speaks, in Chondathan or Common, and greets some faces with the language of the gypsies, Romanji. Cards or dice can sometimes be found idly shuffled or rolled in his hands while he sits outside on the benchs around the well.
The man, who tells people to just call him "Red," claims to be a "travelling gambler," and appears to be in an addled state of mind, often daydreaming if not drinking. Appearing to have a close or old association with the druid Oreth and his wife, the archdruidess Fadia, and the bards Penny and Laerlilly, those who know the easily-uncovered truth of the matter are aware of the fact that the long-missing Gali Tyche Fortuna has returned to Narfell.
"The Gambler always finds the Road back to Luck," he has been heard to comment, in Romanji._

The attacks on Jiyyd by a tremendous demon and the coincidental arrest of the shapeshifting bard Mirkali have spurred whispers and wild speculation.

_Rumors amoungst people in Jiyyd say that a man and a women called number two left jiyyd in high spirits, saying they where off to go gove tea and pie to banites. Those in the farmlands around Jiyyd could see them having pie and tea with two people near the crossroads. After a while the one of the women left leaving the man talking to the banites. After a while a small good looking elf appears and joins in the chat. It is said that the banite man and the other decided to have a duel for no real reason. The nonbanite one this easily.
Shortly after when the female banite left a man in darkgreen and black armor appeared. After a breif discussion he tells the man in blue and black to draw a wepon. After a small fight the banite leaves untouched leaving the leigonaire bleeding in the snow. The small elf then helped the man back to town and to healing wonders. Shortly after the leigonaire comes out looking in a very bad mood and headint to the leigon halls after threatening a banite half orc to get out of town before he killed him_

Some of the villagers speak in hushed voices about the Dark Enchantress and about how an elf gave her a weapon, and how she then just disappeared.

A note is attatched to the wall of the Regal… inn, written in a neat, bold script:
Competent scribes are wanted, to copy books and take dictations. Craftsmen who are competent in the art of bookbinding are wanted as well. The payment for this service includes coin and possibly magical instruction. Speak with Genzir Malark if you are interested.
OOC: if somebody, a DM perhaps, could suggest a price for copying books (how much per book) I'd be grateful.

Rumors spread that Moe has died AGAIN. Carried from the Swamps by a Troll, followed by Grag, Hedia, Lilly, Kyra, and Cike they went into the Healing house where a tired and revived Moe did step out weary and looking for an ale immediatly steps to the inn. What Killed him is whispered about in town from a hoard of blood sucking Stirges to a wisp flying down his throat to burn him inside out. Some rumored words say he tripped into the murky water and drowned in the putred waters.

Word spreads of yet another attack on Jiyyd by the orc tribes near by. Following the innital wave of attacks, Commander Grag and a few others, Kara Du'Monte, Rary, Elith and others made an attack on the Orc compound. No word as of yet if the Orcs have made a response to this attack.

Rumors spread of Nymph sightings and someone was overheard saying that they over heard someone how might have actually seen this Nymph and knows where it lives… of course there are also some claming that the Nymph can bring your children back from the dead... or something like that... miss bussybody doesnt seem to be the most reliable spreader of news

Some sort of fancy new pavilion seems to be rumored to be under construction in front of the Legion Hall. There are intricate stone statuary of two of the Legion's finest, General Grag and Major Uchi, in action poses facing one another. All that are needed are matching stone benches and perhaps a fountain to complete the new Legion garden.
Some people begin complaining about "Legion Excesses" when there are hungry families in the region when a mage happens along and poof, the statues turn into two grumbling Legion Officers who seem angered at having been solidified.
The mage and the ill humored Legioneers disappear into the Legion Hall with some other persons for some sort of conversation, the new pavilion complex idea apparently abandoned.

Apprentice mages along with Headmistress of Spellweaver Keep Arien Ashald are seen measuring rooms and preparing to have furnishing shipped from the Keep.

Anyone who isn't blind (sorry fool) eyes clearly report the actions of the past day; the crops are razed, buildings blackened, and some citizens having horrible memories of a big sandy hot place.
The rumors regarding these occurances point to a very large red scaley lizard whose name rhymes with lass swooping down and turning jiyyd into one huge stove.
