Let it be known that the priestess of Umberlee known as Ingriss is to be arrested for assault and death threats against law abiding citizens for the purpose of intimidation and coercion. She is to stand trial for her crimes, and a trial will be scheduled when she has been apprehended. Any who wish to give a statement of further crimes or her innocence of these charges may present a sworn affidavit to High Priest Barnabas of Tyr in Rivermoot.

Furthermore, a bounty of 250 gold pieces is to be awarded to any who can bring her in to Rivermoot or Highhold, if and only if she is alive.
-Lt. Flinn Pomador
Argent Legion
Rathalan Whitsword has formally asked Lt. Pomador to extend charges against Ingriss to assault on his person.

He has also asked a separate writ of arrest be issued for Annalia, who threatend death against him and has drawn steel on numerous goodly and innocent folk.

Lt. Pomador is seen to have responded to Rathalan with the comment, "Your lucky you aren't under arrest for your own assault on her, and we'll all be lucky if she doesn't get away with her crimes because of your little temper tantrum. You'll have your chance to say your piece at her trial."

Whispered in voices of concern, a rumor flies through the streets of major cities, that a man in Silverymoon was found in a back alley with his throat slit from ear to ear, and a symbol of Lathandar carved into his chest.

*posted at High Hold and Rivermoot*

The Church of Helm seeks information regarding the alleged recent attacks in the hills to the North. If any individuals of the Church of the Everwatcher were involved any raid within the last moon they are to report to either Knightblade Lemuel Ogdenstorm or Watchknight Whitsword.

Any other man who has any information regarding the north hills incident should come forth and share what he knows in prompt fashion. Rewards and the thanks of The House Invincible are to expected for information of value.

Some guards might be heard to hazard guesses as to what Sir Hylan might have deigned to discuss with the rum soaked hin in the corridor of the outer High Hold keep, but the general consensus was likely that it was an upbraiding as the hin was later confirmed to be incarcerated the dungeon.

A day and a half later, some of the guards might have been heard to comment that the hin looked to be in better condition when he left than when he entered. Some might have even been heard to comment that the half-orc gaoler was either loosing her touch, or had a soft spot for drunken hin.

Word quickly spreads through the Lady's College that scholars Kaijin Sora and Marcus Wands successfully completed Senior Evocation.

Librarian Oakroot claims with his usual affinity for gossip that the pair narrowly missed a frozen death by the thinnest of margins, and that they succeeded only though the grace of Tymora's smile and the blessings of the Lady of Mysteries.

Marcus, usually well-known for what some generous folk refer to as excessive wordiness, has seemed rather quiet since returning, and has been only occasionally seen in the halls with a somewhat sad look on his face. No one seems to know why.

Upon returning to the University, people may notice Kaijin's demeanor has changed drastically. Since his near-brush with death during his Senior exams, he has become unnerved and almost fanatical about furthering his Arcanic studies. He's also seen even more often than before praying to the Firelord Kossuth and showing his devotions in any way he can.
Kindled within his sienna eyes is a new and devoted spirit of determination and reverence to a higher power...

Anyone who might have interest and has seen Rugo in the last few days would likely notice that Rugo seems to have regained much of his mental capacity. Although he still seems uncharacteristically mirthless and serious, he no longer seems to be overtly drunk or insane.

It is said in between more important conversations around the school that a heavily armoured dwarf entered the Lady's College and left a job request upon the buletin board.

*there is a note written with some fashionable handwriting placed on the wall by the The Angler's Tavern in Rivermoot and the same kind of note is posted on the wall next to the Argent Legion Post at the High Hold*

Spellcaster Davyn I would like to meet you as soon as possible.

Anyone who has had the pleasure of meeting Louen Therin, son of Jonas Therin the Dragonslayer, may notice he seems more agitated than normal. His manners are often curt and he hardly seems to make eye-contact or smile anymore. Any mention of the orphanage makes his tone bitter as he speaks of visitors, lack of or unannounced. He also looks to have not been sleeping well, if at all.

Rumors abound at the Lady's College of an important mission, possibly involving an ancient Netherese school of magic. Apparently Marcus Wands was ushered upstairs by the Dean Vihuel and several high-ranking mages some days ago, but has not been seen since.

Seems that gnome - a Dremir Rockfist - has something a bit different about him these days. Hard to tell, maybe it's a new haircut? Could it be that he's grown a bit taller? Or perhaps he's just put on a bit of weight?

Mistress Ostelle at the University has put out the word to thank the nameless benefactor who recently brought in some new materials for her Elementary Necromancy class, "Dissection of the Arcane", and left it moldering in a university common room. She does ask that bodies be brought directly to her in future that she may store it in specially-made rooms, rather than stain a downstairs carpet.
Enjoy the game

Two Helmite officers, in full parade dress, together made a solemn procession from Rivermoot eastward to Silverymoon. They supposedly carried the mummified remains of a fallen hero. The pair stopped along the way for quiet speaking with Hyelan Severen in High Hold and Sergeant Lairdmoor at the Rauvinwatch before continuing on to The House Invincible.

Some say that the remains were of a great Battle Priest who long ago saved the Marches from ruin. Others, less inclined to believe in the benevolence of the Church of the Great Guardian, say that the officers were tasked with slaying one of their own, a once holy warrior corrupted by undeath and fallen from grace. Others still merely said it was a fallen officer, killed in the Maztican Campaigns.

Most simple folk however, seeing the two men approach on the road simply bowed their heads in reverence or offered quiet thanks to the efforts of the Church of Helm as the men walked by.
