A young lad would be seen placing out boxes in the Storm's Landing slums, leaving them with a note on them.

[Arc of Thieves]

The rumors around the recent increase in theft and pickpockets have climaxed! Yet, it seems everyone tells a different story...
From all the wild rumors, 8 names can be distilled. These are the names of what has come to be known as The Bands of Four.

The bands have formed.
The stage is set.
Hide your treasures.
The thieves are coming to town...

Food would be given out in the slums again by the same lad. Eventually turning into a weekly occurence.
Maybe things finally turned for the better. ​

Around the Eastern coastline, whispers begin to bubble up regarding the now-unoccupied title of Count of Veraci.

If the rumors are to be believed, the title will be inherited by Asero Crow's scholarly daughter, once she comes of age.​

 

[blargtheawesome]

A new settlement is being established south of the Landing. Crates stamped with the seal of House Ivanov, a flame, have been seen around a construction site.

Whispers from alleyways and the shadows of Storm's Landing reach the ears of gossips and those listening: The Exalt of Visage was seen flying in to the rift that appeared, holding off demons to stop them from coming through. He was never seen coming back out of the rift.

Rumour spreads around Sanardu of possible piracy in the Southern seas, after a ship taking sandstone, glass and wood failed to return from Palmwood.

[OOC: If you'd like to investigate this, you can send your emotes to be in discord or in conversation and I'll tell you the result of your investigation. Not event tier!]

"The graveyards are so quiet, friend."
"Solemn and somber, silence, as those grieve others long past."

A hooded figure sits cross-legged, watching, within the Landing's graveyard.
They say nothing.

Some know not they're there when they pass by.
Others wonder if it's their imagination.
Regardless of the tale that gossip twists, there are still nights where the figure sits.

Undisturbed.
Undisturbing.​

{!}

On a night where not a soul seems to be around, a faint tune is played

(OOC: Figured I'd bump this just in case there are people who frequent the graveyard since this is still an ongoing thing)​

As the realm faces new challenges
New unknowns
New shifts

A wordless musician still sits patiently

Quiet and content

Overnight, in the Noble district of the Landing, two scorpions have appeared on the roof of one of the Councilor's houses.
How odd.​

After some efforts at investigating, no signs of piracy were found... However, those seeking a specific black and blue sailed ship may hear by one rumour or another it'd been seen on the west coast. To those in the know or capable of following, it makes port in Astakos but the Captain claims he was sold the vessel by two demonic looking individuals.

[OOC: Just wrapping this up after a few investigated! You can PM me if there are specific questions or investigations and I'll do some emotes if I can.]

A caravan attacked in the desert. Most of its hands escaped, its two guards were slaughtered. South of New Soolera.

────────────────────────────
The Caravan left raided South of New Soolera was investigated by a band of guards after word reached the city.
They returned one fewer in number, reports of the undead guards of the Caravan attacking them, after being laid in the wagon and disguised as Injured men hidden from the harsh sun.
────────────────────────────
A deliberate and cruel act, ensuring the bloodshed did not end with the departure of whoever robbed the merchants.

Around the realm, Scholars and Collectors begin to hear word of a need for magical and fantastical items.
Items that exist for the mind, for knowledge to be gained, and for more.

If words are spoken of an item that may be available, the price on it shall be high.​

In Eldpoint, the children of the schoolhouse run around one afternoon, delivering bouquets of picked flowers to nearly every house,
and soon-after chasing each other in a mass game of tag, it seems.

The patron of this spectacle is left a mystery, but it leaves many with a smile on their faces.​

 

[Reedie]

The Exalt of Valiant was seen flying over Eldpoint, his wings drawing the attention of many throughout.

After a brief stop in the Palace, he spent the remainder of the evening and night at the Cathedral, speaking with
eager citizens, young and old, about the Crusader, and answering their many questions about him.

Despite the fame and attention he drew, Altera's protagonist was gone by morn, onto further adventures.

The Queen of Aethel Deira, along with a modest retinue, was seen riding into Eisenheim with several carriages.

Discussions of expansions to the town were made, and many small gifts and treats were given to the children
of the village.​

*Out within the hellscape of Nid Arach, on the outskirts near a fortress. The sound of battle could be heard, the shouts of men and whistles of arrow-fire enveloping the land around them for hours of on end, before suddenly stopping. Nothing but silence left in its wake.*
