Telling on the Rise
With the talk around the
southern peninsula buzzing about Dragons returning to Aram fortune
tellers are making a handsome living preying on those fears.

Priests from the temple of
Thornaolf have mobilized a search party for the tomb of Severin, the
great paladin. During their daily divinations a temple insider
claims the name Severin came up multiple times, and his cherished
weapon, Peacemaker, was also mentioned. No other facts were
immediately disclosed by the informant, but clerics leaving the
temple seemed disturbed by the morning's events.
Berry addictions continue to
plague the southern peninsula. The number of addicts committing acts
of pure depravity in and around Geyser has exploded in the last
week. Rumors abound as to the source of the mysterious berries. The
temples of Thornaolf, Diver and Warren have all sent priests into
the rural areas surrounding Geyser to look for a way to eradicate
the berry nuisance.
Historical Arts museum to open
in Giant Coast. After years of planning and gifts of labor and coin
from the local businesses the museum is slated to open late next
month. Some in the city have complained that many of the pieces were
looted from consecrated tombs of long dead warriors. Those same
citizens purport that the museum will most surely be haunted.
Several workers seem to support these allegations when they reported
seeing ghostly visages watching them work. Paranoia and public
skepticism aside, the mayor is quoted as saying, "The museum will
open on time and under budget."
