More Bombs in Trinsic
Will Trinsic go BOOM?

Last night, yet again more bombs were found in Trinsic. It's rumoured that the planter of these bombs left a tip somewhere in Trinsic which was picked up by the Guards, and apparently led them right to the Bombs! It's unclear as to the exact details of this latest bomb attempt, however Guards were later heared muttering about some fool running through town with a ticking bomb! We can only hope that who ever that fool was decides to take a better way to get out of town next time! Though you're reporter here is rather greatful as it is believed one of the bombs was planted in our very offices!

No one seems to have been arrested over the recent attacks on Trinsic, so does this mean that it's not over yet?

An EXCLUSIVE
By Molly Culliton

As your intrepid reporter strolled along the leafy highways and byways of Yew last night, she was accosted by a fellow demanding to know why I was wearing such fancy clothing. Now between you and me, dear readers, I was wearing a plain off-blue dress – the skirt of which being newly ruined by a large inkspill. Little did I know that my conversation with this myopic madman would lead to such an eventful evening! After a brief tussle involving my notebook being confiscated by this helpful ‘VC’ we came across a camp, into which assorted members of the general public were being directed by the doorstaff.

You can imagine my surprise when I came face to face with none other than Klion d’Gar, and how delighted I was to be invited inside for an exclusive on the new militia spa. Apparently the brainchild of the self-styled Lord Pro’, this charming, if somewhat unorthodox Holiday Camp caters to those folks that perhaps, under normal circumstances, couldn’t afford to treat themselves to a luxury break. Chosen seemingly at random as they passed through the forests of Yew, peasants and flowergirls, stray drowlings and tavern-hands were escorted through the gates of Arduin to enjoy the many delights of the spa. Cool moss-pools, earth floors, and bijou changing-rooms decked out with those classy yet practical orc-esque sharpened posts make for the ideal spot to relax and escape from the daily grind.

Games and tutorials are laid on for those who seek diversion from relaxing on the furlined bedding, and set in its deep forest locale, there’s little fear that townsfolk will be disturbed by the excited yelps and squeals of excited sparring partners or the happy sobbing of those so grateful to be given the chance to learn new skills, such as woodcutting and lumber-hauling. As if that wasn’t enough, there’s even cabaret-acts laid on, gratis. I was fortunate enough to catch not one but two during my brief visit.

First up was the hilariously funny “If Daddy Says So” show with the simpleminded Danifae d’Gar. In a spark of creative genius this show is fully interactive, and actively involves the audience, who the dimwitted d’Gar daughter refers to as ‘the criminals’. Oh how we chuckled as question after question was responded to with replies such as “That’s up to my Dad…not me” , “I don’t think so…”. “I’m not sure…” and the classic “If Dad… said you should be here.” Was it the vapid expression or the brainless answers that made it such fun? I don’t know, but one things for sure. Anyone that plays airhead so well could give Giggles Quaintly a run for her money!

The second act was a slapstick extravaganza with resident jester Dribbling Glyndwr. Playing the part of a mentally-challenged trainee guard Glyndwr ranted and raved “I think you're un-armed and wearing rags, so I don't really care what you think! You'd think after the first few beatings they'd learn it's easier to just -shut up-!” On and on he went, and when I introduced myself he didn’t let up a bit! “I wouldn't mind if her Sosarian was perfect,” he chided, unaccustomed no doubt the Lyceum-educated lilt of we broadvowelled ‘Glowians, “Britannian, I mean!” he went on. “Uh? You’re a slave now, Journalist slave! So get used to your new job!” Sadly, as his skit ended, so too did my mini-break.

All things considered though, I’d honestly have to say that the thing which sets the camp apart from all of the other resorts I’ve enjoyed over the years, would have to be the staff. Referred to throughout as “Sergeant” one Leo Madsen was noted to be going that extra mile to make sure everything ran like clockwork…making sure one of the holiday-makers who had suffered some discomfort during a massage, presumably, received copious amounts of bandage, and tending to those special little touches such as on-site meals and even, at one point, some much needed paper for me to take notes on, in the form of a crinkled poster, no less. Another mention goes out to a young woman with long dark hair - clearly a keen physician - who refused to give me her name, but acted above and beyond the call of duty from the time folk entered the camp and were given their snug grey plain-woven leisure-clothes to those precious parting moments where the ‘prisoner’ gets led deep into the forest and enjoys that which is jovially referred to as ‘good hard kicking’ before waving a very, VERY fond farewell to Camp Arduin!

Slave Workers Free!
Saved by the brave...
Chaos broke out yesterday evening as Tammy, an escaped captive aided by a trusty group of "merry men" freed Klion D'Gars camp of slave workers injuring a good handful of his goons along the way.

Bombs were thrown at the guards guarding the large metal gates distracting all giving the poor prisoners enough time to dig their way out of the hell hole using merely metal spoons or their own blistered hands. Though when given the word all guards diverted their attention to the escapee's using whatever methods they could think of trying to knock them down and drag them back to their smelly and mud filled prison.
"They were trying to make us build some form of fleet." says a woman who wishes to remain anonymous "They beat us and starved us..... We had to fight each other for food." claims a striking half drow named Te'Ani Von'Sah.

Grab your pitchforks and torches ladies and gents I think its time to put Klion and his goons in his place (and no that doesn't mean inside a hungry bog thing). And everyone from the morning poste's hearts are out to all those injured in the traumatic episode.

Trinsic Freedom fighters

As most know recently a group calling themselves the "Trinsic Freedom Fighters" have been placing bombs in numerous places around Trinsic. It has now been clarified that it was on single man trying to get his own moments of fame, however the manic while creating his next bomb was blown to piece and Trinsic is now safe again.
However citizens of Trinsic remain alert just incase anyone else has any fantastic ideas of blowing us all to shreds! It is now being said incase of future bomb attacks all new and old guards are being trained in how to deal with them.

Duke Irvyn a numerous amount of times has stated that no citizens should take any unnecessary risk as his first priority is for their safety.

[Glad to know you've got our backs Dukey old boy! - PP*]

An alliance fades...

And so a grand alliance between the duchy and the Dark cloaks seems to be breaking. Some have said this is because of the recent bombings and that a Miss Delacy had offered the services of Kheldar Ancalime and our very own drunk Lyim Rashidat to deal with disarming the bombs. It doesn't take a genius to know that the duke and Mr Ancalime would rather lick a dirty yewians foot than be seen in the same room together. However along side Lil'Alures abduction and torture charges against a member of the Duchy a Miss Stacy Furnell a known member of the cloaks had to be forcibly restrained after threatening with a warfork, spitting and snarling at the Duchy guards.

[Not a very lady like thing to do is it Miss Furnell. You get a 10 for femininity -PP*]

Up In Arms!
Our exclusive on the Big Camp Horror.

Klion. Yes, darlings it's true. No, not that he's the Big Camp Horror himself (that title, when applied to a specific person is for another that graces these pages) but the mastermind behind all things evil and Yewish (which seems to be ever-more apparent these days.) There was a time when we felt close to our Yewish breathren, but when they can kidnap our people, force them into labour for purposes of creating an invasion force - well, something has to be done.

And what should we do? Pester your local duke \ ousted public representative \ maestro, whatever, and get forces together to prepare to defend our homes and our hearts. Because we'll all soon be chanting in their churches, singing their praises, and rubbing shoulders with the next vile oik who thinks that just because someone is from the south, they're a kind of lesser being.

To those in Yew who read this article, I trust that you will make sure that your leaders know the error of their ways, by reminding them that their dreadful behaviour will not go unpunished.

Today’s (purely factual) Edition is brought to you by Good Golly Miss Molly Culliton

Trinsic’s Trollop Tanya’s Tantrum
You want the truth? You can’t HANDLE the Truth!

“I truely hope, someone you love and care for dies. I will personally write a story on it. And ruin every memory you have of them.”
Oh yes, readers, purely in the interest of bringing you up-to-the-minute facts, not a whisper of a lie, and as true as the day is long, here you have word for word to actual abuse that was crowed in fish-wife style at Trinsic’s West Gate by Easy-like-a-Sunday-Morning-Tanya. And there’s more!
“How about you do an article on how false the Poste is? How many lies they tell, and how often they get it wrong? You could also add a piece on the faults of each of the writers and how foul you all are! You people disgust me. You thrive on spoiling other peoples lives, interfering where you arn't wanted and making up any old thing to give yourself a story!”
Was this outburst coming in light of our recent mention of her affair with Kaldorian Gregorusser, father to Tanya’s then-pregnant ‘friend’ Shelly? Apparently not!
“This is going back to when you wrote many false stories about my husband! How you nearly destroyed the last few months of his life. You people make me sick! Get a real job! Shut the hell up! Chiv was an upstanding honest man.”
Perhaps it was a little unfair for me to have then suggested that from all other reports he was a more of a downfalling stairsloving man, but if nothing else it served to leave her tongue-tied long enough for your valiant reporter to remind her that by all means she should give her perspective on things should we at the Poste make any errors. The problem however with slander and libel of course, is that it’s neither if it happens to be true.
If you can’t hack the harvest then don’t sow the seeds, folks!

City-Life Rife with Tit-for-Tat Bedding
Keeping it in the Family hits an all time Low!

Well, after the scathing attack from Duchy guard ‘Your-Place-or-Mine’ Tanya, I’m not going to do any speculating and I’m not going to print any misquotes. We at the Poste would like you, the intelligent, fair-minded readers, to draw your own conclusions of what’s (who’s?) going down amongst Society’s Finest. Following a few whispers from the staff and locals at The Keg, yours truly made it her business to catch up with everyone’s favourite Wide-Boy to make sure the rumours were true. Once again- you, the reader, can judge for yourself.
“I just put the poor girl to bed, she was sloshed. Any gentlemanly sort would have done the same. I put her to bed, I doubt its much of anyone’s business if there was Bedding. She was affectionate at our table, she needed to get some rest. So I paid for a room and got her all snuggly. There was some lap sitting, altogether innocent for someone like Gwyn. I told you, I was a good boy. Scandal? What is being said? That I’ve made off with her virtue whilst she was drunk? She was a bit overly sloppy to get her home easily, so, I got us - Her, a room, and tucked her in. My feelings? She’s a nice girl. Shes definately nicer than Lady Q. She’s not a !!!!!, for one! But I’m not one to kiss and tell miss Molly.”
I should point out that at this point, avid readers, he winked! I should also point out that the young lady under discussion was none other than busty countess Gwynnie Quaintly. I took the opportunity to ask him if he had any thoughts on how the OTHER Quaintly, might take this development.
“Probably a bitter laugh and a fine brandy. I doubt she cares what I’m up to these days, since she’s got baby brother to keep her busy. I could give a rats ass about their tea and brandy bouts.”
Well readers, there you have it- the heiress ice-princess cops off with Rashidat’s little brother, so HE takes advantage of her little sister? I put that very point to him, and quoted the fallout.
“Ohhhh now hold on right there a minute! It’s nothing like that! She’s a nice woman, pleasant company, thats it! It wasn’t a planned thing! Since when is -this- even news!?”
Amid stammers and blushes, I decided to leave it at that, but managed to catch up with Giggles herself later on, who vehemently denied that ‘Lyimy’ was anything other than a ‘complete gentleman’ before being physically dragged away by pretty-boy squire Alex. Should we even ask?!

All fun and games...
Until someone loses a Twothumb. (Part Two).

Today we carry on with our news from Vesper, and just recently we have discovered some interesting stuff for our dear readers! It seems that what was published in yesterdays rumours, today has been confirmed. Damien is back folks! And not only is he back, but he's also trying it on with local Knights of Vesper. Reports have come in to me today giving details on how Damein attempted to 'hit on' Lady Tabbith! Damien followed through with this by attempting to get all smoochy and loved up right infront of everyone, some chap known as Hawkster got between the two in a most noble attempt to stop Damien from disgracing lovely Tabbith (but then again... Tabbith may have enjoyed it all). Being the posh snob that Damien is, he quickly threw down a gauntlet in a challange to Hawkster (Apparently Damien could rival the best in the local Snobs Club.... full of the old 'thees' and 'thous' - Watch out Quaintly... theres a new threat to your 'Queen of the Snobs' title). The rest of this is history... much like Hawkster after what I imagine was a humiliating defeat.

In other Vesper news, many of the cities Citizens have vanished, it seems homes were abandoned sometime during the night, dinner left on the table, wine still in the glasses and red coals still in the fire place. One must wonder if these people left, or were taken? Perhaps the Guardsmen of Yew have decided that stealing people from their own homes and murdering them is more entertaining than giving them the chance to run. So we have this to say 'Have you no honour Guardsmen! Everyone knows you need to work up a sweat before a good murder... shame on you!'.

Legions at the Ready!
Magincia's stiring again...

Not so long ago you may recall a spark in the history of a City known as Magincia. Montac returned to the Isle and took back his title of Lord, Alliences were forged and everything seemed dandy until a stranger arrived, then everything went pear shaped for the people of Magincia. The Stranger calling him self 'Aulus Truentis' rather brutally killed his 'brother' Montac and took control of Magincia, meanwhile the true heir was missing. The Magincian 'Empire' was forged with Aulus naming him self 'Emperor' of what can only be described as the smallest Empire in Sosarian History. Aulus was once quoted to have said 'Veni Vidi Vici'... shortly after that little outburst of strange talk he had his arse handed to him on a silver platter by none other than our Dear Kaldorians.

But now thats all History, and no one likes to dwell on the past. But recently the once Heir and now ruler of Magincia has been seen running around, meeting with Senators, speaking with former Praetorian, Maximus Verilius, and most recently a man who's known only as Gaius Vibius. A local Magincian merchant was kind enough to speak on the subject for us; "Well its all rather strange see, first a few Praetorians show up, then this Senator, Gaius Vibius, starts meeting with his highness, and now we've been hearing Senators talk about a transition of powers". What exactly is in the pipeline for Magincia is anyones guess, but we can probabbly assume they wont be planning world domination any time soon.

Today’s No Frills Edition is brought to you by Buxom Betty Badoodle

Knights night out
we can all sleep safely in our beds.

A large contingency of Knights were seen cleaning out the pits of Trammel a few nights back. Namely the suddenly active Templars,nice to see them out and about again and the Hospitallers.

Its good to see the Knights of the realm,working together.I am sure we shall all be much safer in their strong arms.
You would think they would start closer to home though, and cleanse some of our towns.
Especially from the likes of ......

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Has he really reformed ?
Has Tabbitha's influence finally had an impact?

No,WE dont think so.
Its reported Arcaon, the one eyed terror of Tabbitha's life...yes hes back folks...has stirred up quite a bit of a storm since his 'reincarnation' two weeks back.
Considered dead by a lot of people ( they wished) Arcaon has lost no time in achieving two goals.
One to haul Tabbitha's ass into a Custody battle ,over his alleged daughter,who he now wants taken out of her care.

Secondly to worm his way into the Duke Of Trinsic's good books.Seemingly the Duke has accepted Arcaon into his service and this is verified by Arcaon strutting around wearing the Duchy uniform.

Kaldor

Kai's humanity has been restored, but the big fella doesn't seem to thrilled about being back to normal and has been avoiding almost everyone.Larger than life he has been skulking around alone,looking as miserable as ever.He might not of been able to smile before with his encased in bone,yet hes still looking the same covered with skin.

Also, simple-minded Cecil was sentenced to 20 lashes for losing part of his uniform (not the first time he's lost it...).How could anyone be heartless enough to treat him that way. Friends leapt to his defence stating Cecil would give them the clothes off his back if they needed them.

[Pity one of them didnt return the favour and give him some thing in his hour of need.If it happens again Cecil, come find us at the Poste if yer in need in the future...BB]

Vesper

Since being found by the Knight Hospitallers,nothing has been seen or heard from Kain Twothumb.We hear on the grapevine he has been housed in safety at one of their buildings.Its anyones guess which one.Maybe Tabbitha has been giving him her 'personal' touch in the same place she seemingly did for Arcaon a few years back, and Locke...and Talon... and ...........several others.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

News reached me early this morning of a scourging of Vesper last evening by its Loyalist occupants .It is said they stormed the Swaggers Inn where its beleived a large number of rebels have begun to gather regularly,plotting to over throw the Yew authorities.It is reported a large blockade has been constructed at the entrance to the tavern but nothing on casualties or arrests.
I shall travel there later today to send back an update..

Trinsic

Busty ickle Gwynnie Quaintly was seen yesterday evening sporting a nicely scuffed-up cheekbone. Rumour has it that the bruiser occured following being dragged from the city by doe-eyed dish Darius Dante on the say so of evil twin Phaedra, who was keen to explain the 'error of her ways' to the giggly countess after her wine-soaked Keg-night with Ex-beau of the Rich !!!!!, Lyim Rashidat. Apparently the heiress was none too pleased when the 'Gwynnie and Lyimy' story came to light, and wasted no time in giving her twin a piece of her mind. And fist!

Anouncement

Dear Ye Morning Poste,

A murder has taken place at Remembrance Bridge, a monument near Hanse's Hostel here in Malas.
I request that you put this in the Poste whenever you can, as we need to find out who the girl is.

She is young, somewhere in the age bracket of nineteen to twenty-three. Her hair is golden blond and her eyes are light green. Her clothes appear expensive but it's hard to tell with all the blood. The murder took place Sunday night.

I request that anyone with a relative or friend that they have not seen in a few days that meets the description above come forward immediately to check and see if the unknown victim is an acquaintance of theirs. They may reach my pidgeon at 192880242 to set up a viewing of the body.

Thank you, Captain Peter Cralson of the Luna Paladins

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To the editor, or whichever disfunctional mongrel is reading the letters today.

The world is in chaos and all you find to write about is the insipid and uninspiring going's on between some Trinsician sheets?

Do you suppose the dramatic decline in interest in the Poste is because a general lack of interesting news? In the last week there was ONE exclusive which might have counted as actually new and noteworthy.

Maybe, just maybe the average serf of Trinsic cares about the going's on of the community lowest and loosest but I doubt it. So Lyim has shacked up with some washed up moonglowian woman. So some guard may or may not have slept with some Kaldorian of negligiable import. Who the hell cares? Certainly not anyone who counts anyway.

Do you really wonder why viewing figures and income are declining on all sides? How about if you have no news, cut the overhead and just don't publish.

I mean whats the point of this paper? The common folk barely get a mention and one could argue don't even read it. In turn the paper goes out of its way to harrass and ridicule anyone whose name might vaguely carry some weight.

Failing that, I shall go and produce my own damned paper, with blackjack and barmaids. Theres evidently a market to undercut, and the news wouldn't just be tired re-runs of who shared the evening with who.

So buck your damned ideas up Poste writers, otherwise you shall be out of a job on the streets cleaning rags and sewing buttons.

And those who continue to serve the Republic shall never die.

Samsca of Olk.

[As pointed as ever eh,Olk, Ill have ye know my weekly edition is a bumper of news ,facts,and rumours from all walks and locations...BB - disfunctional mongrel ]

Culture Vultures Visit Verity
Moonglow Poetry Proves Pleasant

The evening of Limericks and Haikus set in Moonglow's lauded Lyceum was well attended by Sosaria's Literati, and in an atmosphere of verse and complimentary nibbles, the verse flowed as freely as the wine laid on by 'Glowian heiress Lady Q and Doe-Eyed Dish Darius Dante. Asked how she felt the night went, Quaintly had this to say, "Oh, it went well enough. Of course, these things never go as planned, and had the Kaldorians present shown anything other than complete ineptitude in muzzling their pets and leaving them safely tied up at home, it may have gone even better." It's believed that she was referring to a child who spent the entire evening screaming, running up and down, upsetting everyone present, laughing loudly at those reciting, and stuffing the buffet snacks up her top. Here's a selection of some of the evening's lyrical offerings...

Susan:
There was a young girl from Luna!
The virtues were her natuna!
She wants to be a knight!
Even if it takes all night!
Even if it means eating tuna!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lyim Rashidat:
At early dawn I hear,
The waves upon the shore,
The Cuckoos call so clear.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

VanQa:
There once was a dragon from Paws
who had problems with rules and with laws
when caught in his lair
He said: sure have no fear
I'll come as soon as i've sharpened my claws

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Caralie:
Lost to those who care
Reaching out for final hope
Death bequeathed despair

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Gregorusser:
Ella, mi stella
me sweet lil' Brae
sorry fer the da i took away
sorry te make yer mum cry
sorry te go off an' die...
ella me stella...
me sweet lil' brae
Sorry te write this bad poem

Posh to Peasant head to Britain for Moot

The Annual Moot in Britain has dragged everyone out from under their rocks it seems, and it looks like the weather's going to be decent enough over the coming week. That said, there have already been a few stormy moments late last night, when passing by The Wayfarer's Inn (a bit pricey, to be honest, but the rooms are clean and the fare's fair) yours sincerely couldn't help but notice sister of the recently deceased Calluna Varibolt discussing the upcoming funeral arrangements with a crowd of Covians when she got flanked by boyfriend Devante and assorted Brittania Boys in Blue who stood looking threateningly at Olchafa and his sabre-rattling chums. Quick to wrap up the arrangements, Elise added "And if there's one hint of politics at it, from either side, we'll be having another bloody funeral." That'd be a lively start to the Moot! Seemingly over the course of the week there are events scheduled to entertain the masses converging on the city. As soon as we know where and when, we'll let you know!

Letters to the Editor

I must take issue over a libellous description of myself in a recent edition of your newspaper. To use words such as "menace", "dangerous" and "criminal" is a unwarranted defamation of my character. For the record…I have never been tried for any crime, nor has it been proved that I have committed any crime. In this supposed "City of Honour" it is laughable that law abiding citizens like myself are treated with such disdain. The fact is, the real dangerous menace of this city is the Baroness Moiraine who seems to think she can dish out punishment just because someone looks at her the wrong way. That she thinks she can use "legalised" tortures to obtain false confessions, is clearly the product of a deranged mind. It is time the citizens of Trinsic rose up and threw her in the stocks.

With a ship fulla goods

Yesterday evening red clad pirates attacked one of Trinsic's local ships while loading to depart with goods for a place unknown. It was said that the pirates in red claimed to be to be the dock authority and was going to have to confiscate the goods under suspicion of it being illegal.
However our brave ship crew managed to load the last crate of goodys heave up the anchor and speed off into the Ocean only soon to be followed by the horrible pirates. Lets just hope they got far.

Dark skinned menace..
Mysteriously escapes from the jail.

Vierna a well know criminal around Trinsic has supposedly escaped from Trinsic jail with the aide of corrupt guard Elion who apparently purged loveable elf guard Liana's jail key and set the dangerous drow free.

With the deeply regretted departure of Robert de Craon from these shores, Reann has consented to take on the burden of being the Trinsic Justice.

I have no doubt that she will perform admirably in this position. Nevertheless I expect everyone to give her all the support necessary to fulfill the functions of this demanding role.

She will in the near future be seeking new personnel for the Justice department. Anyone who is interested should seek her out in Trinsic.

Special Evening Extra Edition, gratis with Today's Poste

A Moot Exclusive by the Incorrigible Molly Culliton on 1st June

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lest there was any confusion over what side his bread is honeyed regarding the Northern-Situation, your very own Moot-Correspondent for The Poste, was on hand to get a few words from Duke Irvyn of Trinsic.

"I have not and will not support this takeover of Vesper.
Whatever proclamation the Council may have made ...
whatever claims Twothumb may make ...
Trinsic has no part of this.
Nor will I ever support Klion's vile and ruthless oppression of the people of Vesper."

I should point out that at this point, a gobby female of the nosy variety popped her cheeky face 'round the doorframe and proceeded to heckle- yes, folks, heckle, the Duke. He didn't rise to it, but answered all of her impertinent questions, took her jeering and snide comments in a goodnatured and patient manner, and dissuaded her from further nonsensical babbling with all the eloquence and nobility one would expect from Lord British himself, and when the foolish woman started throwing completely unfounded allegations regarding fence-sitting and help for those hit by the opression of Vesper, His Grace was quick to put her straight...

Irvyn: "But it seems to me that the populace of Vesper should receive humanitarian aid. Should the opportunity arise, I may make use of it. I thought I had made my position very very clear."
Insane Heckler: "I know more than ye realise mister"

At this point, the Duke looked collected and calm, thoughtful, and not-in-the-least angered.

Insane Heckler: "ye naye have aided Vesper yet, just sat safe in Trinsic whilst they 'ave suffered"
Irvyn: "You do not know what I have done madam."

The jibbering heckler left at that point, thankfully, and His Grace, considerate in the extreme, invited yours truly to accompany him to a local established, run by Trinsic's favourite landlady elf, VanQa. On our arrival we sat and discussed the evening's events with the Baroness Moiraine, over a civilised glass or two of White Leaf Wine.

Now between you and I, dear readers, we can put Kain Twothumb's lunacy down to a few things. Perhaps he was always a few sandwiches short of a picnic basket, or perhaps he's going senile in his old age. Maybe the strain of living in a rat-infested fish-scented dock up North has finally taken its toll, or it could just be that he's recently figured out that everyone he thought respected him was only hanging about because of the drinks laid on at his any-excuse-for-a-booze-up functions. However, if you ask me, his recent unhingement is more likely to have stemmed from the fact that as he left the University the other evening, he was attacked and beaten silly, and though given the once-over patching-up treatment by always-on-call Rashidat, was essentially left to his own devices as everyone - and I emphasise - EVERYONE else present went off to do "more important" things.

Yours truly thinks Kain Twothumb should be very grateful that the altruistic Moiraine and Kalannar (note: Trinsicians!) happened by his bruised and bloodied sorry self and offered to bring him to Tel'Mar for a bit of R&R. I think it was particularly decent of Kalannar (note: big burly drow) to CARRY the decrepit old miser all the way there! But maybe that sort of thing doesn't make the headlines as quickly as the pathetic soundbites that the likes of Twothumb was shouting like a fishwife at the Moot. I think we can all see who stands where when it comes to nobility these days...and it's looking pretty grim up North.

Today edition is brought to you by the bedridden Helen Hearsay

The End is Nigh!
Helen has the sniffles...

First and foremost, I would like to take the time to tell all you feisty little readers that, after my grand expedition to the ruffian-ridden Stonekeep, I have been sneezing all the time and even have a sore tummy. Letters, flowers - and above all - chocolates, would be appreciated - no - expected! Here I am sitting up in bed writing for all you ungrateful readers and so far I have had not a word of sympathy. I mean, I have sacrificed myself just to give you up-to-date unbiased news and coverage of the troublesome rebellion and nobody has yet called me a martyr for journalism!

Nobody Does Anything!
No news is good news!

Yes, for the first time in ages, nothing particularly special has happened! That includes people doing silly things such as mugging each other, stabbing each other in dark alleyways and marrying each other. Yours truly can only smile happily and instead of writing the Poste like I’m being paid to, I can doodle in the margins and wonder how long this dulled state of being can last. I do like a holiday and, despite the fact that it currently involves lying in my bed wishing I had never made the long and arduous journey to Yew, I have never been more grateful for the world around me. Delightfully boring, that’s the way it should be!

[But wait! Something did happen – The rebellion continued! Helen’s special thank-you to the reader who posted this in - H.H.]

Another loss for the Loyalist Alliance
Will the Kingdom loose Vesper again?

It seems the newly established Loyalist Alliance of the Guardsmen Militia, the Royal Marksmen Regiment and the Britannia Guards are meeting great resistance in the Northern lands. Last night, a patrol company dispatched from Stonekeep in Yew was beaten back by the so-called freedomfighters. Let's hope these are not the same ones that did Trinsic last year.

Rumours

We’ve heard reports that Guardswoman Kaelyn was last night seen wearing a bright jester’s hat at her usual post at the West Trinsic Gate. In front of her was Cecil, kneeling and apparently receiving some sort of knighthood. Later it was understood that Kaelyn has become the mysterious ‘Queen of hats’ and the nutter Cecil has become her Knight of Honour. We shall watch this one with interest – Perhaps a threat to the Duke’s rule over Trinsic itself? Still, such things should not concern his grace, he still has the time to retire to a luxury playboy mansion with all sorts of charming ladies to replace his love of Trinsic.

Vegeta and Shelly of Kaldor. What odd couples will they think of next? The two have been seen gazing into each other’s eyes, holding hands and generally seeming sickeningly and disgustingly in love. This reporter would like to remind the ‘carefree’ Shelly that she hasn’t quite ended her marriage yet! And to Vegeta – well – show some respect! The rest of us need not bear witness to your atrocious acts of lovey-dovey and smoochy-woochy with your new woman. At least marry her, for pity sake!

"Ladies and Gentlemen,
Distinguished guests,
good evening,
My name is Tussi de Luxe
and I have been asked to open this exhibition.
It is very often my job to congratulate people.
That is one of the most pleasant aspects of being in the Towncouncil.
Councillors go to events, congratulate the organisers,
everybody politely applauds ...
I will remind you about that a bit later ...
*winks*
Megan: *grins*
and there is a generalized warm feeling.
Usually holding speeches is a less pleasant aspect though...
Elendrik: *nods*
mostly for those who have to listen.
*smiles*
Now, I am not going to describe to you what you can see all around you
or soon inside.
Nor will I attempt to explain you the curators' description of the exhibition.
*looks over to Salomon*
I would like to commend the Majere family for bringing over
this astounding, remarkable display of monstrous objects.
Solomon Majere, Councillor and Librarian, is anxious to bring culture
and education to the North.
This exhibition is just one of a number of projects
that will add to the vibrancy of our cultural scene
and hopefully help place Valoria on the Sosorian art map.
I wish the Majere Family every success in their pursuit
of moving the arts to greater heights.
I wish all of you an enjoyable evening.
Thank you."

Press Release - exclusive for Ye Sosorian Morning Poste.

A Citizens ending
Report on the Funeral of Stacy Furnell

Tears were shed and drinks were spilled in honour of much loved Stacy Furnell who was tragically killed by a grizzly yet unknown accident in the prime of her life. The funeral which lasted from around 7:30 until 8:30 was put together by half drow and best friend to Stacy, Arliana Malira who look particular tearful and nervous on this blast into the past however none the less nervous than Miss Seriya DeLacey and Mr "can't keep his hands to himself" Rashidat.
The ceremony was done by, all so brightly dressed Taggart grand master of The Knights templar with two of his lowers who lifted the coffin into the grand when the time was right. The wake began after as poppys were set around the fantastically designed gravestone, people told enough other stories about our dearly missed Miss Drama Queen Furnell.
I of course, your dear reporter Polly Patterson said a few good byes for the poor soul telling her how much I would miss writing about her drama.

Cecil saying a few words about Stay before she was lowered down.

The end of the ceremony and the beginning of the wake.

You can’t HANDLE the Truth! “I truely hope, someone you love and care for dies. I will personally write a story on it. And ruin every memory you have of them.” Oh yes, readers, purely in the interest of bringing you up-to-the-minute facts, not a whisper of a lie, and as true as the day is long, here you have word for word to actual abuse that was crowed in fish-wife style at Trinsic’s West Gate by Easy-like-a-Sunday-Morning-Tanya. And there’s more! “How about you do an article on how false the Poste is? How many lies they tell, and how often they get it wrong? You could also add a piece on the faults of each of the writers and how foul you all are! You people disgust me. You thrive on spoiling other peoples lives, interfering where you arn't wanted and making up any old thing to give yourself a story!” Was this outburst coming in light of our recent mention of her affair with Kaldorian Gregorusser, father to Tanya’s then-pregnant ‘friend’ Shelly? Apparently not! “This is going back to when you wrote many false stories about my husband! How you nearly destroyed the last few months of his life. You people make me sick! Get a real job! Shut the hell up! Chiv was an upstanding honest man.” Perhaps it was a little unfair for me to have then suggested that from all other reports he was a more of a downfalling stairsloving man, but if nothing else it served to leave her tongue-tied long enough for your valiant reporter to remind her that by all means she should give her perspective on things should we at the Poste make any errors. The problem however with slander and libel of course, is that it’s neither if it happens to be true. If you can’t hack the harvest then don’t sow the seeds, folks! City-Life Rife with Tit-for-Tat Bedding Keeping it in the Family hits an all time Low! Well, after the scathing attack from Duchy guard ‘Your-Place-or-Mine’ Tanya, I’m not going to do any speculating and I’m not going to print any misquotes. We at the Poste would like you, the intelligent, fair-minded readers, to draw your own conclusions of what’s (who’s?) going down amongst Society’s Finest. Following a few whispers from the staff and locals at The Keg, yours truly made it her business to catch up with everyone’s favourite Wide-Boy to make sure the rumours were true. Once again- you, the reader, can judge for yourself. “I just put the poor girl to bed, she was sloshed. Any gentlemanly sort would have done the same. I put her to bed, I doubt its much of anyone’s business if there was Bedding. She was affectionate at our table, she needed to get some rest. So I paid for a room and got her all snuggly. There was some lap sitting, altogether innocent for someone like Gwyn. I told you, I was a good boy. Scandal? What is being said? That I’ve made off with her virtue whilst she was drunk? She was a bit overly sloppy to get her home easily, so, I got us - Her, a room, and tucked her in. My feelings? She’s a nice girl. Shes definately nicer than Lady Q. She’s not a !!!!!, for one! But I’m not one to kiss and tell miss Molly.” I should point out that at this point, avid readers, he winked! I should also point out that the young lady under discussion was none other than busty countess Gwynnie Quaintly. I took the opportunity to ask him if he had any thoughts on how the OTHER Quaintly, might take this development. “Probably a bitter laugh and a fine brandy. I doubt she cares what I’m up to these days, since she’s got baby brother to keep her busy. I could give a rats ass about their tea and brandy bouts.” Well readers, there you have it- the heiress ice-princess cops off with Rashidat’s little brother, so HE takes advantage of her little sister? I put that very point to him, and quoted the fallout. “Ohhhh now hold on right there a minute! It’s nothing like that! She’s a nice woman, pleasant company, thats it! It wasn’t a planned thing! Since when is -this- even news!?” Amid stammers and blushes, I decided to leave it at that, but managed to catch up with Giggles herself later on, who vehemently denied that ‘Lyimy’ was anything other than a ‘complete gentleman’ before being physically dragged away by pretty-boy squire Alex.

Until someone loses a Twothumb. (Part Two). Today we carry on with our news from Vesper, and just recently we have discovered some interesting stuff for our dear readers! It seems that what was published in yesterdays rumours, today has been confirmed. Damien is back folks! And not only is he back, but he's also trying it on with local Knights of Vesper. Reports have come in to me today giving details on how Damein attempted to 'hit on' Lady Tabbith! Damien followed through with this by attempting to get all smoochy and loved up right infront of everyone, some chap known as Hawkster got between the two in a most noble attempt to stop Damien from disgracing lovely Tabbith (but then again... Tabbith may have enjoyed it all). Being the posh snob that Damien is, he quickly threw down a gauntlet in a challange to Hawkster (Apparently Damien could rival the best in the local Snobs Club.... full of the old 'thees' and 'thous' - Watch out Quaintly... theres a new threat to your 'Queen of the Snobs' title). The rest of this is history... much like Hawkster after what I imagine was a humiliating defeat. In other Vesper news, many of the cities Citizens have vanished, it seems homes were abandoned sometime during the night, dinner left on the table, wine still in the glasses and red coals still in the fire place. One must wonder if these people left, or were taken? Perhaps the Guardsmen of Yew have decided that stealing people from their own homes and murdering them is more entertaining than giving them the chance to run. So we have this to say 'Have you no honour Guardsmen! Everyone knows you need to work up a sweat before a good murder... shame on you!'. Legions at the Ready! Magincia's stiring again... Not so long ago you may recall a spark in the history of a City known as Magincia. Montac returned to the Isle and took back his title of Lord, Alliences were forged and everything seemed dandy until a stranger arrived, then everything went pear shaped for the people of Magincia. The Stranger calling him self 'Aulus Truentis' rather brutally killed his 'brother' Montac and took control of Magincia, meanwhile the true heir was missing. The Magincian 'Empire' was forged with Aulus naming him self 'Emperor' of what can only be described as the smallest Empire in Sosarian History. Aulus was once quoted to have said 'Veni Vidi Vici'... shortly after that little outburst of strange talk he had his arse handed to him on a silver platter by none other than our Dear Kaldorians. But now thats all History, and no one likes to dwell on the past. But recently the once Heir and now ruler of Magincia has been seen running around, meeting with Senators, speaking with former Praetorian, Maximus Verilius, and most recently a man who's known only as Gaius Vibius. A local Magincian merchant was kind enough to speak on the subject for us; "Well its all rather strange see, first a few Praetorians show up, then this Senator, Gaius Vibius, starts meeting with his highness, and now we've been hearing Senators talk about a transition of powers". What exactly is in the pipeline for Magincia is anyones guess, but we can probabbly assume they wont be planning world domination any time soon. ---------------------------------------------- __________________

A large contingency of Knights were seen cleaning out the pits of Trammel a few nights back. Namely the suddenly active Templars,nice to see them out and about again and the Hospitallers. Its good to see the Knights of the realm,working together.I am sure we shall all be much safer in their strong arms. You would think they would start closer to home though, and cleanse some of our towns. Especially from the likes of ...... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Has he really reformed ? Has Tabbitha's influence finally had an impact? No,WE dont think so. Its reported Arcaon, the one eyed terror of Tabbitha's life...yes hes back folks...has stirred up quite a bit of a storm since his 'reincarnation' two weeks back. Considered dead by a lot of people ( they wished) Arcaon has lost no time in achieving two goals. One to haul Tabbitha's ass into a Custody battle ,over his alleged daughter,who he now wants taken out of her care. Secondly to worm his way into the Duke Of Trinsic's good books.Seemingly the Duke has accepted Arcaon into his service and this is verified by Arcaon strutting around wearing the Duchy uniform. Kaldor Kai's humanity has been restored, but the big fella doesn't seem to thrilled about being back to normal and has been avoiding almost everyone.Larger than life he has been skulking around alone,looking as miserable as ever.He might not of been able to smile before with his encased in bone,yet hes still looking the same covered with skin. Also, simple-minded Cecil was sentenced to 20 lashes for losing part of his uniform (not the first time he's lost it...).How could anyone be heartless enough to treat him that way. Friends leapt to his defence stating Cecil would give them the clothes off his back if they needed them. [Pity one of them didnt return the favour and give him some thing in his hour of need.If it happens again Cecil, come find us at the Poste if yer in need in the future...BB] Vesper Since being found by the Knight Hospitallers,nothing has been seen or heard from Kain Twothumb.We hear on the grapevine he has been housed in safety at one of their buildings.Its anyones guess which one.Maybe Tabbitha has been giving him her 'personal' touch in the same place she seemingly did for Arcaon a few years back, and Locke...and Talon... and ...........several others. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ News reached me early this morning of a scourging of Vesper last evening by its Loyalist occupants .It is said they stormed the Swaggers Inn where its beleived a large number of rebels have begun to gather regularly,plotting to over throw the Yew authorities.It is reported a large blockade has been constructed at the entrance to the tavern but nothing on casualties or arrests. I shall travel there later today to send back an update.. Trinsic Busty ickle Gwynnie Quaintly was seen yesterday evening sporting a nicely scuffed-up cheekbone. Rumour has it that the bruiser occured following being dragged from the city by doe-eyed dish Darius Dante on the say so of evil twin Phaedra, who was keen to explain the 'error of her ways' to the giggly countess after her wine-soaked Keg-night with Ex-beau of the Rich !!!!!, Lyim Rashidat. Apparently the heiress was none too pleased when the 'Gwynnie and Lyimy' story came to light, and wasted no time in giving her twin a piece of her mind. And fist! Anouncement Dear Ye Morning Poste, A murder has taken place at Remembrance Bridge, a monument near Hanse's Hostel here in Malas. I request that you put this in the Poste whenever you can, as we need to find out who the girl is. She is young, somewhere in the age bracket of nineteen to twenty-three. Her hair is golden blond and her eyes are light green. Her clothes appear expensive but it's hard to tell with all the blood. The murder took place Sunday night. I request that anyone with a relative or friend that they have not seen in a few days that meets the description above come forward immediately to check and see if the unknown victim is an acquaintance of theirs. They may reach my pidgeon at 192880242 to set up a viewing of the body. Thank you, Captain Peter Cralson of the Luna Paladins ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To the editor, or whichever disfunctional mongrel is reading the letters today. The world is in chaos and all you find to write about is the insipid and uninspiring going's on between some Trinsician sheets? Do you suppose the dramatic decline in interest in the Poste is because a general lack of interesting news? In the last week there was ONE exclusive which might have counted as actually new and noteworthy. Maybe, just maybe the average serf of Trinsic cares about the going's on of the community lowest and loosest but I doubt it. So Lyim has shacked up with some washed up moonglowian woman. So some guard may or may not have slept with some Kaldorian of negligiable import. Who the hell cares? Certainly not anyone who counts anyway. Do you really wonder why viewing figures and income are declining on all sides? How about if you have no news, cut the overhead and just don't publish. I mean whats the point of this paper? The common folk barely get a mention and one could argue don't even read it. In turn the paper goes out of its way to harrass and ridicule anyone whose name might vaguely carry some weight. Failing that, I shall go and produce my own damned paper, with blackjack and barmaids. Theres evidently a market to undercut, and the news wouldn't just be tired re-runs of who shared the evening with who. So buck your damned ideas up Poste writers, otherwise you shall be out of a job on the streets cleaning rags and sewing buttons. And those who continue to serve the Republic shall never die.

Asked how she felt the night went, Quaintly had this to say, "Oh, it went well enough. Of course, these things never go as planned, and had the Kaldorians present shown anything other than complete ineptitude in muzzling their pets and leaving them safely tied up at home, it may have gone even better." It's believed that she was referring to a child who spent the entire evening screaming, running up and down, upsetting everyone present, laughing loudly at those reciting, and stuffing the buffet snacks up her top. Here's a selection of some of the evening's lyrical offerings... Susan: There was a young girl from Luna! The virtues were her natuna! She wants to be a knight! Even if it takes all night! Even if it means eating tuna!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lyim Rashidat: At early dawn I hear, The waves upon the shore, The Cuckoos call so clear. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ VanQa: There once was a dragon from Paws who had problems with rules and with laws when caught in his lair He said: sure have no fear I'll come as soon as i've sharpened my claws ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Caralie: Lost to those who care Reaching out for final hope Death bequeathed despair ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Gregorusser: Ella, mi stella me sweet lil' Brae sorry fer the da i took away sorry te make yer mum cry sorry te go off an' die... ella me stella... me sweet lil' brae Sorry te write this bad poem ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mass Exodus (but in a good way!) *Posh to Peasant head to Britain for Moot* The Annual Moot in Britain has dragged everyone out from under their rocks it seems, and it looks like the weather's going to be decent enough over the coming week. That said, there have already been a few stormy moments late last night, when passing by The Wayfarer's Inn (a bit pricey, to be honest, but the rooms are clean and the fare's fair) yours sincerely couldn't help but notice sister of the recently deceased Calluna Varibolt discussing the upcoming funeral arrangements with a crowd of Covians when she got flanked by boyfriend Devante and assorted Brittania Boys in Blue who stood looking threateningly at Olchafa and his sabre-rattling chums. Quick to wrap up the arrangements, Elise added "And if there's one hint of politics at it, from either side, we'll be having another bloody funeral." That'd be a lively start to the Moot! Seemingly over the course of the week there are events scheduled to entertain the masses converging on the city. As soon as we know where and when, we'll let you know! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Letters to the Editor I must take issue over a libellous description of myself in a recent edition of your newspaper. To use words such as "menace", "dangerous" and "criminal" is a unwarranted defamation of my character. For the record…I have never been tried for any crime, nor has it been proved that I have committed any crime. In this supposed "City of Honour" it is laughable that law abiding citizens like myself are treated with such disdain. The fact is, the real dangerous menace of this city is the Baroness Moiraine who seems to think she can dish out punishment just because someone looks at her the wrong way. That she thinks she can use "legalised" tortures to obtain false confessions, is clearly the product of a deranged mind. It is time the citizens of Trinsic rose up and threw her in the stocks. Vierna (Hmm...well that's Slander and Incitement to Hatred to add to the list of crimes you've never gone down for. Yet. -MC) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ __________________ Last edited by Tabbitha; 13th June 2006 at 03:29 AM.

"I have not and will not support this takeover of Vesper. Whatever proclamation the Council may have made ... whatever claims Twothumb may make ... Trinsic has no part of this. Nor will I ever support Klion's vile and ruthless oppression of the people of Vesper." I should point out that at this point, a gobby female of the nosy variety popped her cheeky face 'round the doorframe and proceeded to heckle- yes, folks, heckle, the Duke. He didn't rise to it, but answered all of her impertinent questions, took her jeering and snide comments in a goodnatured and patient manner, and dissuaded her from further nonsensical babbling with all the eloquence and nobility one would expect from Lord British himself, and when the foolish woman started throwing completely unfounded allegations regarding fence-sitting and help for those hit by the opression of Vesper, His Grace was quick to put her straight... Irvyn: "But it seems to me that the populace of Vesper should receive humanitarian aid. Should the opportunity arise, I may make use of it. I thought I had made my position very very clear." Insane Heckler: "I know more than ye realise mister" At this point, the Duke looked collected and calm, thoughtful, and not-in-the-least angered. Insane Heckler: "ye naye have aided Vesper yet, just sat safe in Trinsic whilst they 'ave suffered" Irvyn: "You do not know what I have done madam." The jibbering heckler left at that point, thankfully, and His Grace, considerate in the extreme, invited yours truly to accompany him to a local established, run by Trinsic's favourite landlady elf, VanQa. On our arrival we sat and discussed the evening's events with the Baroness Moiraine, over a civilised glass or two of White Leaf Wine. Now between you and I, dear readers, we can put Kain Twothumb's lunacy down to a few things. Perhaps he was always a few sandwiches short of a picnic basket, or perhaps he's going senile in his old age. Maybe the strain of living in a rat-infested fish-scented dock up North has finally taken its toll, or it could just be that he's recently figured out that everyone he thought respected him was only hanging about because of the drinks laid on at his any-excuse-for-a-booze-up functions. However, if you ask me, his recent unhingement is more likely to have stemmed from the fact that as he left the University the other evening, he was attacked and beaten silly, and though given the once-over patching-up treatment by always-on-call Rashidat, was essentially left to his own devices as everyone - and I emphasise - EVERYONE else present went off to do "more important" things. Yours truly thinks Kain Twothumb should be very grateful that the altruistic Moiraine and Kalannar (note: Trinsicians!) happened by his bruised and bloodied sorry self and offered to bring him to Tel'Mar for a bit of R&R. I think it was particularly decent of Kalannar (note: big burly drow) to CARRY the decrepit old miser all the way there! But maybe that sort of thing doesn't make the headlines as quickly as the pathetic soundbites that the likes of Twothumb was shouting like a fishwife at the Moot. I think we can all see who stands where when it comes to nobility these days...and it's looking pretty grim up North. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ __________________

However any posts it links to are purely OOC information, unless you happen to have agood explanation why you would know about them IC.] Today edition is brought to you by the bedridden Helen Hearsay The End is Nigh! Helen has the sniffles... First and foremost, I would like to take the time to tell all you feisty little readers that, after my grand expedition to the ruffian-ridden Stonekeep, I have been sneezing all the time and even have a sore tummy. Letters, flowers - and above all - chocolates, would be appreciated - no - expected! Here I am sitting up in bed writing for all you ungrateful readers and so far I have had not a word of sympathy. I mean, I have sacrificed myself just to give you up-to-date unbiased news and coverage of the troublesome rebellion and nobody has yet called me a martyr for journalism! Nobody Does Anything! No news is good news! Yes, for the first time in ages, nothing particularly special has happened! That includes people doing silly things such as mugging each other, stabbing each other in dark alleyways and marrying each other. Yours truly can only smile happily and instead of writing the Poste like I’m being paid to, I can doodle in the margins and wonder how long this dulled state of being can last. I do like a holiday and, despite the fact that it currently involves lying in my bed wishing I had never made the long and arduous journey to Yew, I have never been more grateful for the world around me. Delightfully boring, that’s the way it should be! [But wait! Something did happen – The rebellion continued! Helen’s special thank-you to the reader who posted this in - H.H.] Another loss for the Loyalist Alliance Will the Kingdom loose Vesper again? It seems the newly established Loyalist Alliance of the Guardsmen Militia, the Royal Marksmen Regiment and the Britannia Guards are meeting great resistance in the Northern lands. Last night, a patrol company dispatched from Stonekeep in Yew was beaten back by the so-called freedomfighters. Let's hope these are not the same ones that did Trinsic last year. ----------- Rumours We’ve heard reports that Guardswoman Kaelyn was last night seen wearing a bright jester’s hat at her usual post at the West Trinsic Gate. In front of her was Cecil, kneeling and apparently receiving some sort of knighthood. Later it was understood that Kaelyn has become the mysterious ‘Queen of hats’ and the nutter Cecil has become her Knight of Honour. We shall watch this one with interest – Perhaps a threat to the Duke’s rule over Trinsic itself? Still, such things should not concern his grace, he still has the time to retire to a luxury playboy mansion with all sorts of charming ladies to replace his love of Trinsic. Vegeta and Shelly of Kaldor. What odd couples will they think of next? The two have been seen gazing into each other’s eyes, holding hands and generally seeming sickeningly and disgustingly in love. This reporter would like to remind the ‘carefree’ Shelly that she hasn’t quite ended her marriage yet! And to Vegeta – well – show some respect! The rest of us need not bear witness to your atrocious acts of lovey-dovey and smoochy-woochy with your new woman. At least marry her, for pity sake! ----------- Letters to the Editor [Absolutely nothing in the mailbag this morning - not a get-well card in sight, you miserable readers! - H.H. ] ------------ Adverts ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The King's Guard is now recruiting! We are in need of more brave men and women to join our ranks in the fight for a UNITED KINGDOM Contact Baron Fairholm today! (250-836-370) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ------------ Whats on Bachelor & Ettes' Eve - Tonight, 8pm - Swaggers, Vesper Monsters of the Lands - Tormorrow, 8pm - Valoria Museum Find your dream date's true form after last night - at the exhibition! Funeral for Stacy Furnell - Thursday 22nd June, 8pm - Trinsic Forest Edge Celebrate the life of the notorious Stacy. Meet at the forest edge for a gate.
