The Town Cryer

Post by Burt_Reynoldz_Mustache »

This post is for public Baldur's Gate News
*The Town Cryer cries out as he rings his bell*
Image
Hear ye' Hear ye'! Latest Reports from the Flaming Fists show that the recent increase in patrols along the Trade Way have deterred shadows and haunts from attacking innocent Coast Way traders. The Flaming Fists have eradicated the threat and civilians are once again safe to travel the roads.

Sounds like horse shite to me.

*Ringing the bell at the center of town; the Cryer shouts out*

Merchant Qualin Halvus and his wife Lady Halvus regretfully invite all of the city to mourn along their side as they have given up hope on their missing son Kingsley, and will be holding an official Funeral Ceremony within their home. A priest of Kelemvor will be present along with a special tribute from Brother Maynard for all the children which have gone missing within the last two months.

Warning to all of Baldur's Gate...Unusual activity along the city side has lead to a high alert for the next few days. Only go out if necessary. Travel in groups! The Fists will warn when the alert is over citizens!

*Several rings of the bell echo throughout Baldur's town center*
Image
Here ye, Here ye! The Dukes have finally officially released word that Bolnak has been destroyed. A joint operation between Flaming Fists, Rain Dogs Special Tactics, Red Wizards of Thay, Knights of the Unicorn and local Heroes all had a great part to play as multiple stirkes against her forces finally folded her grip on the forest roads. A midnight award ceremony has been held for the brave and a week of taxless dock trade will commence as a gift to the people of Baldur for their commitment to the city in such dark times.

*Citizens celebrate to the Town Cryer's announcement.

All Roadside transportation of goods will not be taxed by the city until next spring. Take advantage, and get your last harvests shipped out while the rates are cheap!
