Jiyyd Rumors
-
Townsfolk of Jiyyd have noticed lately the increased activity around the Silver Valley. Wagonloads of foodstuffs and barrels marked XXX have been more frequently making the trip north into the halfling village. Rumours eventually make their way south that preparations are being made for an upcoming smallfolk festival. Word quickly spreads that there will be contests of skill, prizes, travelling merchants, and plenty of fresh food and drink.
((Festival in the valley is this coming Saturday. More details to come.))
-
Those who visit Ormpur may notice a great deal of work being done around the small village. A couple new building are being constructed, along with a taller re-inforced wall, while many young men from the area seem to be in training to defend the place. Nicahh and Equinox are seen helping out quite a bit.

rumor has it a priestess of umberlee was heard uttering prayers and resurrecting the dead on the queens power, within jiyyd…
-
Rumour would have it that in the most recent attack of the Little Lady and her undead minions on the Long Road, some deranged elf chick was screaming at folk not to attack undead, because they are people too!
-
The sight of a pregnant pink haired bard is all too common in Jiyyd, and much rejoicing is had as the bard known as Lilly passes into the last month of her pregnancy. Some for the miracle of birth, some just tired of her grumbling and hoping to see her with a sunny disposition again.
//hoping to have the birth of sunday for any interested.

Rumours and stories tell of a massive army of extremely powerful hobgoblins overrunning the Nars pass. A handful of brave defenders managed to keep the first wave of these hobgoblins with unforeseen powers at bay but the second wave was just too much. At least four of the valiant heroes are said to have been cut down by the massive axes, huge ice storms and continuous lightning bolts of the highly trained hobgoblins. No one seems to know where these armies came from and who trained and equipped them.
-
Rumors spread of a terrifying group of bandits that occasionally make their camp near Ormpur. It seems a group of three women (one white, one black and one red haired) and one man tried to track them down. The women returned badly bruised without the man. According to them, they discovered only the mangled and abused bodies of the group's unfortunate victims. It seems they just missed the bandits and lost their track which led towards Jiyyd.

_A mighty expedition or fearless warriors!!!
Set forth to slay:-
The humungous winged venomous pointy-toothed undead skeletal chitinous demonic vampire spider of doom from the dark abyss!!!
And its ancestors.
They stumbled back into town covered in spider blood and bits of undead._
-
_There's rumors about jelly having invaded the pass, there's rumors about a mage gone crazy in the pass, just like magic there, and there's rumors about a demon being responsible for all that and there's rumors about Kara and some friends of hers stuck in a cave surrounded by spiders. It seems all of them involve a redhead and also a lot of blood, and legs.
There's also another story about a group of dogs that licked a cow and magically made the cow into a dog. It also involves the redhead and more dog-transformations. Most stories, though, seem to have a happy ending._
-
Countless Dwarves have been seen coming in and out of the legion halls with massive materials for building. When aproached or asked who they are one after the other insists they are Maythor's cousins from Troff mountain. What is being built nobody yet knows some rumors of Jail cells has been murmered….
-
Raryldor was seen being carried by the druid, Wolf. The druid was injured and Rary was dead. The druid had a blank expression as he simply explained vampires were the cause of it. Later, Rary was heard calling the druid a coward, and then stomped off.
-
_Large looking half-ork donned in Black Sail colors has seen entering the Jiiyd carrying a large sack and body of dark-blue haired dwarven lass. He headed straight to Vroka's house of healing, but very soon gets thrown out with curses: "Get that damn Umberlant away from our holy house"
Muttering something the half-ork heads outs, heading for crossroads with his heavy looking burden._

On hearing of Chaevre's death, Damian Colten has been visibly more relived
-
After taking measurements and recording them into a journal, Peppy is seen following the path she watched the dwarf take with Chaevre's body. She counts steps as she goes along, writing in her journal the entire way, and watching the ground.
-
The mage Khyrill has been asking after the location of Chaevre's body.
He explains that he wishes to verify her condition for himself, and that in Chaevre's absence he is responsible for Spellweaver Keep.
-
Tindra, upon hearing the rumor of Chaevre's death, suddenly looks VERY scared.
-
Peppy is seen poking around in the general area of where Chaevre's body disappeared from. She marks the exact spot where she was one of the first to see it laying there, and seems to be taking measurements in the grass with strings and weighted stones.
-
_In the night a loud roaring begins it, at dusk, as the hobgoblins move in on the raod.
In the morning, the bloodied bodies of four cutters, three apprentices, and a quartet of grunts and chuckers are found all alone, half-buried in the muffling snow west of Jiyyd.._
-
Sometimes Lyte notices a blade of grass move contrary to the direction of the wind. Sometimes she smells a strange odor. But those times are few and far between. And the air around her at the gate is silent and still, at least in regard to this situation.
-
*Upon hearing the rumor of Chaevre's timely demise, General Lyte seems alarmed, and begans scrutinizing the people hanging around town, as if looking for some familiar face or posture in the passing populace.
She seems to be more vigilant at her normal spot near the gate, even as days pass, and people forget about the incident. She is seen to ask travelers to report of any unusual sightings of more constructs, or particularly of persons accompanying constructs, to the east of Jiyyd.*
