Drow Leader Jailed For Murder!
Or Is She?
The drow leader known as Vierna was jailed for murder just a few night’s ago in Trinsic after turning up in the city with the body of her victim! Yes, can you believe it? She turned up with the body of a duchy guard known as Brynhild, in the duchy lands! Talk about caught red handed! Off course the guards didn’t give her a chance to speak and promptly threw her in jail while the body was taken to the local healers for further investigation. But, in a strange turn of events, by the next morning the body had vanished from sight and was no where to be found! Now from what I can gather, the guards seem to think they had wrongly assumed the motionless body of Brynhild was dead, and in fact, she is alive and well some place as yet unknown. After all this the guards released Vierna due to a lack of evidence! A very odd tale indeed might I say!

Yet Another Blessing From The Guardsmen Militia Has Come Forth!
The People Of Yew Rejoice!
I’ve been hearing reports that go completely against the words these leaflets that have been handed out around Britannia would have you believe! It seems that during this last Yuletide militia soldiers were seen taking it upon them selves to see that no Yewish person, man, woman or child, went without warmth and a full belly! Apparently one or two militia troops were seen in the dead of night carrying around boxes of collected goodies such as wood for fires, fresh meat and vegetables, these guardsmen then proceeded to knock on every door in Yew and hand out these goods! Our witness to these events stated “How good it was to watch those guardsmen at work, they truly are good folk!” We would like to hear what the leader of the Yewish revolt has to say about this very public show of goodness by the militia!


A sketch of what our witness noticed that night!



Rumours

Trouble In Trinsic!
Crowd Gathers To Sling Rotten Apples!
Last evening while I was taking a stroll through Trinsic I happened upon a crowd gathered at the main gates. They appeared to be standing around a couple of brutish looking men who were tied to the stocks! Apparently there had been a few attempted muggings in the early hours of the evening. It seems these bandits were trying to take advantage of the extremely busy streets and taverns of Trinsic that have been a wash with activity in the last few days. One of them even tried to mug Lord Ikus! Though it would seem they failed in their endeavour and ended up being pelted with rotten apples instead!



Militia Guardsmen Chase Off Attackers
Yew Once Again Safe, But For How Long?
Yew’s troubles are never ending it would seem! I’ve been sent word that a troublemaker yesterday attempted to talk his way out of paying his taxes by posing as a “night of the realm”, claiming he was on some sort of important mission to Yew town. Lucky for us citizens, the Yewish Militia were having none of this and after a militia officer by the name of Gotrek had questioned the man for a short time, his arrest was ordered and a skirmish followed. I think we can safely say the king’s land to the north is well protected!




Rumours

They say on the grape vine that Captain Dart is having women problems at the moment. Perhaps in the near future he will live to regret being such a ladies man!

Word on the street is that someone’s out to get a few well known members of the duchy guard force. We can only hope these rumours remain just that, rumours!

The Ship 'The Indomitable Sails With Ammo.
- Celtic Rebels get more organized
The hottest topic over the last few weeks have been the Rebellion in Yew.
It have been a while, since there have been any reports on fights around in Yew and some have thought it was just a storm in a goblet of water,
that would wear of sooner or later.

I will take the liberty and predict more aggresive attacks in the future as the ship 'The Indomitable' from Vesper reached the shores of Yew - Late thursday eve with a large amount of bolts and arrows, kegs with greater conflagration and other explosives and alot of herbs.




W. Twothumb's Secret Passion
Will Vesper turn into another Yew?
Klion D'Gars trend continues.
It have come to our attention that William Twothumb is finally fed up with beeing single.
The 35-year old Militia Liberator have allied with the Managerness of the Swaggers Inn to host a evening, so Twothumb can met some Sosaria's finest women.

The Militia Liberator, who lives by the old Lord Blackthorn standards and ideals is seeking a woman around the age of 25 and not older than 45.
William - got a reputation of beeing a grumpy sod have a soft side that enjoys a candlelight dinner and a walk on the beach.
The race of the woman don't matter - but:



Is the Drow actually into candlelight dinners and walk on the beaches?
The Morning Poste is guessing that in this very moment - Vierna Hun'ett is handing out free chastity belts for her followers.

Will Captain Escaflowne sign more race-papers for the Dark Ladies, than the previous Captain Davion did?
A few questions, we only can guess about.


Rumours
Jackal Verilax - The good ol' Pirate is jealous. Mr. Jake punched Swaggers' Amara in the nose for having a drink with former Sergeant Leo Madsen!

Former Veetie, now Rebel Declan O'Conner have been messing around behind Missus Niamh's back, trying to win back Amara! Oh the drama! We love it!

Caden D'Gar was seen in Trinsie having his fortune told. Apparently that man is as fertile as his Father. According to Freelance Fortune teller - Gia, he'll be blessed (or cursed) with 15 wee ones!

Furthermore, it's reported that Gia of the Swaggers Inn is carrying Caden D'Gars firstborn.

Lockdown On Southern Yew
Strong Military Presence As Militia Try Eradicate Southern Yew’s Unwanted Inhabitants!
Lord Protector Klion D’Gar has issued a declaration that states the Militia will soon be rid of its rivals, the rebels of Yew. In an effort to clean up the south side of Yew, a known hideout for the likes of rebels, a strong military presence will be actively patrolling the area south of Stonekeep! Will this mean an end to hostilities in the Yew area? Keep watching this space!



Trinsic Guard Force Under Attack!
Criminals Target Duchy Guards!
The Duchy Of Trinsics finest, the Duchy guard force have been the target of a vicious onslaught of beatings, kidnappings and foul play of late. It would seem that not only was there a kidnapping made on Guardswoman Hildy, an attempted kidnapping made on Captain Kaelyn, and an attempt made on the life of Mordred, ex Kaldorian turned Duchy guardsman, but Captain kaelyns family have also been targeted. Sadly two members’ of Kaelyns family were murdered in Minoc just last night! Let’s hope the vindictive thugs behind all this soon come to trial and then the noose!




Rumours

Rumours claim, that there will be another election for a new Baron in Vesper.

They say someone’s out to get the duchy guards, but they also say that someone isn’t the most likely suspect!

Dear Ms De Crowley,
I am writing to correct a bit of a mistake in one of your stories a few days ago. You said a drow murdered me but she didn't, it was Caitlin who died. I'm still alive thank you.
Yours sincerely,

Amber Says: There, there dear. Keep your hat on! My mistake. Though after your recent kidnapping i may well be printing more bad news about you. Let's hope not for the sake of the Duchy citizens!

Militia Patrol Turns Nasty!
Brave Guardsmen Defeated In Ilshenar
I’ve been hearing reports that a recent Militia patrol to the lands of Ilshenar ended badly for the Yewish guardsmen. Gathering in Stonekeep a small band decided to make their way to the Ilshenar lands, through the Spirituality moongate. But on arriving at their destination they found they had bitten of more than they could chew. I hear they found them selves facing some of the truly foulest beasts of those troubled lands! But after a well executed retreat, a few scratches and bruises, and maybe a bump on the head, or two, the guardsmen picked them selves up and managed to make their way home, back to the safety of Britannia!


Militia make a tactical retreat!

Jade Bastet Branded Like A Common Thug!
Connection To Criminals Discovered
It appears that the well known Lady Jade of Tremere has literally been branded a criminal by the duchy! She was arrested under suspicion of dealings with a criminal gang, tied to the stocks and branded with a “B” for brigand! One wonders if this will only escalate the already hostile under current in the Trinsic area.


Lady Jade is branded!

Trinsic Guardswoman Kidnapped!
Duchy Raid The Rusty Dagger!
A few days ago guardswoman Hildy of the Duchy guard was apparently kidnapped by a gang of brigands! Not only did they rough her up and force her to work behind a bar as a tavern wench, they also forced her to knife fight with Kaldorian Corwin, after he was also captured during an failed rescue attempt! Luckily for guardswoman Hildy and Kaldorian Corwin, the brigands showed some element of mercy when they dumped the wounded pair in the local woods, later that day.


Guardswoman Hildy is forced to work behind a bar!


Rumours

Whispers abound that VanQa, once leader of the elves and torture victim of drow fiend Iglata, is once again back in Sosaria and building a life with Jern Fretting at his cottage.

Vesper Elections Race Continues..
But Who Will Be Named?
The city of Vesper is alive with the buzz of rumours and chatter, whispered words of who might next be named Baron. The last week has seen an array of public event ranging from insult contests and to ostard races! Currently in the race are Lord Elliot Heath, Van Cocidius, Amarante, Reywal and Gia! Who’s your money on?


Vesper ostard race!

Orcs Attack Trinsic!
Guards Face New Threat!
Those foul beasts the orcs are at it once again, though the name of the warband is yet unknown to us at the poste, reports have been pouring in from Trinsic of vicious attacks. A duchy guard last evening told me that its got the barracks shook up, fighting thieves and muggers is one thing, but fighting man eating orcs is quite another!


Orcs attack Trinsic!


Rumours

I hear the duchy is now accepting drows into their guard force, whatever next!

Lord D’Gar has routed the rebels in Cederwood and apparently reclaimed the village!

Rumour has it the duchy have managed to take revenge on the local brigands by burning down their tavern!

PUBLIC SAFETY ANNOUNCEMENT

ISSUED FROM THE OFFICE OF THE DUKE, 22nd JANUARY

Important Reminder

Some years ago, the Gates of Virtue ritual was performed
to strengthen the wards of Trinsic against magical attack.

Owing to the corruption and failure of that ritual,
all magical travel
(recalling, gating, sacred journey)
either into or out of the city
is extremely hazardous!

Guards and citizens are asked
to remind those who do this of the risks.

Those found repeatedly ignoring this advice
will be arrested and charged with Disorderly Conduct
in order to preserve their own safety
and that of our citizens and visitors.

Irvyn Middlethorn
Duke of Trinsic, Servant of the Realm, Defender of the South, etc etc


What’s on?

Saturday at the Swaggers
Twisted Dare
&
Risk it:
Roll the Dice
- Let 'em decide the Price!

Yew Enjoys Peaceful Day
Rebels Quiet, But For How Long?
Yesterday Yew enjoyed a peaceful market day hosted by the guardsmen militia. Though the day started off relatively quiet, it soon picked up! The boxing competition drew many spectators and apparently a Mr.Walker won the days bare knuckle fights snapping up a fine check of 10’000 crowns! One wonders how long the smiles and laughter will last in the northern city and it surrounding lands.




Rumours

I’ve heard that a certain Carn Helmingas is now incapable of harming any living being; apparently a spell has been cast to prevent him from doing such things! Better watch your back hey Carn, many out there I’m sure owe you one dear!

A new order of knights seems to have appeared around the Trinsic area. One I personally spotted walking the streets not two evenings back! True knights of compassion or those that cleanse through fire? One wonders.

Govenor Claims Victory In The Vesperian Election!
- Candidate E. Heath storms of furious!
Sunday evening the two Candidates - Elliot Heath and Deacon Van Cocidius were found sitting at seperate tables enjoying
a drink, while Vesper's Citizens went inside the Town Hall to set theire mark on the Candidate they believed would lead
Vesper best. There were however, no sign - what so ever of the third Candidate, Amarante from the Swaggers Inn.



The peace were disturbed, as Civillians reported a Theif lurking around and naturally the Guards of Vesper
searched the place and around in the nearby forest. Unfortunally, the Guards didn't have any luck finding the Theif and once again
a Theif left without beeing brought to justice.



After the votes were counted up - Civillians and friends of Vesper began to gather inside the Town Hall where Captain Escaflowne read
the results out loud.

The missing Candidate managed to get 4 votes.


With 18 of the votes, the Swaggerland Govenor can now call himself Baron.


A bitter and angered Mr. Elliot Heath jumped up from his seat and shouted to the crowd:
"Great! You just voted a Child-murderer for Baron!!"

The cheering Crowd didn't pay much attention to Mr. Heath, who left the Town Hall in anger.


The former Baron of Vesper - Olk Samsca gave some kind words in his speach and handed over the Scepter to Deacon Van Cocidius.

What Lord Cocidius has in store for the people of Vesper's future aint certain
- But will the New Baron stick to his promises from his Campaign? Time will tell.

Rumours

The Baron of Cove, Octavious Richter is reported missing,
which leaves the - Oh so handsome Heir, Raziel Ricther in charge.

Jackal Verilax, Good Ol' Pirate/Lady's Man were seriously wounded in the back, when Declan O'Conner found out -
That Verilax and Amarante of the Swaggers Inn once and again have been naugthy.
Rumours claim, Good Ol' Jake swore his done with birds that are already taken. - Yeah right!

Baron of Vesper, Van Cocidius have been spotted together with Madeline from Trinsic.
Will there be a wedding in Vesper soon?

Danifae D'Gar, Heiress from Yew were spotted with a unknown Drow.
Speaking drowish as it was the most natural thing to do. Question is - Do a certain Lord Protector know?

Winter must be furious now the Rusty Dagger is left in rubbles. We heard Captain Kaelyn got wasted and tore it down!

People are getting together in Trinsic and that they wanna form a new political group and try run for Mayer in Trinsic.

That the Guardsmen of Yew didn't get all the Celtic Rebels as they first thought.

Guardsmen Narrowly Escape Poisoning!
Free Ale Found To Be Not So Great!
Last evening the Yewish guardsmen were enjoying drinking a rather dodgy load of “free ale” they found in their tavern. Apparently this free ale was snapped up by the eager guardsmen but soon after they found them selves feeling sickly. Thankfully two higher ranked guards noticed something wasn’t right with this “free ale” and stopped the free for all as quickly as they could. It was later found that the Yewish rebels were behind the entire thing! One wonders what tactics these rebels will use next!


Guardsmen capture a rebel!


Rumours

Sources from Cove claim a courier from one of its colonies arrived a few days ago bearing the following message from its absent Baron...



Rumour has it that Van has the hots for a Trinsic woman named Maddy. He was apparently kneeling down and offering her a ring! One wonders where he got that from!

I’ve been hearing worrying reports that Captain Kaelyn is using rather underhanded tactics on prisoners these days. Better watch out all you criminals who consider entering Trinsic!
