The below accounts will also be distributed in limited capacity via physical copies at tomorrow's market gathering.
Jonah Stone*, naming himself Emperor Jonius the First is attempting to perform a Ritual upon the Isle of Su L’air known as Pax Humanis. His previous attempt resulted in backlash but plans to try again the weekend of the 9th and 10th of 321yr. It was rumored he needed to Salt the Valoran Sarr’s Tower but this may have changed. Cupbearer Auryn has further information.
In October of 320 Baron Fairfax and others discovered a race of Pumpkin-like creatures called Cucurbitas. 99 remain as they were known to hold the Mantle of the Great Hunt in ages past. They were set against the Alpha Panthergaunt. They can only be killed by a simultaneous blow of earth and silver as discovered by Binar and his group. Curses and Commands leave no effect upon them. Binding has alternative effects.
The Puzzler has sent messages of insects for the last two years, mostly as pranks and for her own amusement. The identify of the Puzzler turned out to be a woman named Nora, a being older than Fae with pink hair and green eyes. She is a being of chaos, but a very friendly individual. Many adventurers have heard of her, but only Binks and Eve have laid eyes in person upon her.
A Feast was held which turned out to be an assassination plot resulting in King Sigfried Grimlock and The Ruby Queen being killed. King Grimlock was imprisoned within a crystal in the Sapphire Kingdom, with a punishment by the Valoran Sarr, chosen by adventurers of fair worth determining his fate. I will not describe here what led to his Majesty’s punishment in further detail. Such fate would be an end to the Grimlock lineage for future generations. “As her blood is lost to Anret, so too is the king blood lost to us. The King can sow his seed, the Earth to the moon, no child can the King form. So is his curse.” No future “King” of Wayside may sire more children. For further information, Squire Rusty or DeSylvia can be sought.
The being known as Lore and the Plane of Knowledge were erased from existence. Lady Fallingstar or Scribe Migs can provide further detail.
Creatures known as “Eaters” appeared from Anret. These are cursed beings of time long ago that can only be cursed with cooperation of a skilled journeymen Alchemist and Potion master working together, or 1 Master of either craft. The curse is contagious. Lady Fallingstar has more information on the subject.
The Tower of Wisdom: There is a tower that houses the spirits of an ancient civilization using a device to seal them into crystals. At this time there is a way to remove a spirit from said crystal, but it requires a living person to serve as a temporary vessel. The Tower is located on the Isle of Nex and may hold key historical knowledge of the past. Binks has further knowledge on the subject.
The Olothen (this is the correct spelling) Empire** has remained placid the last year. Their ships are no longer pieces of junk, but now serviceable vessels. However Wayside vessels can still outmatch them 1 on 1. Foss and a group freed the Rift Whale, their primary mode for transporting The Great Leader (giant 1 eyed blue giant). The Great Raid Leaders, a group of LTs of the Empire have been dispatched to various points around the nations of our world.
Lt. Xvorts: Purple gnome-like creature with hooks for hands. Successful raid leads with his army continue. They specialist in debilitating tactics (OOG: Arcane Fear and Stun Limb carriers)
The Empire has only a single Permanent Earth Circle at their main base, but now have a second in their coast base in Ternian Empire. They plan a 3rd in Anret, but the catalyst of a Unicorn Hove was prevented by Pebbles and Sir Nyio in May 321. For greater detail on the Empire and its military position, seek out Binks.
The Stone Table is that which binds laws upon the Fae. It is what brings them order, stability, and balance. The Stone Table must be restored. The process is simple, the process is complex. The process is.
This is a long process requiring almost a dozen people. Sam Gemclipper can explain in greater detail as candidates have been determined. Artisans, Smiths, joke tellers and poets may still be needed.
Totems of Anret and Terna, and The Stone Table. Further information can be collected by DeSylvia and Agate.
Victor Hook remains at large, now reformed upon his Tower in Ternian Empire. Shen has relevant information regarding his plan.
*Jonah Stone is a terrible human being and enemy to all life.
**The Olothen Empire is a collection of creatures serving an entity known as the Great Leader. It’s made up of Ogres, Orcs, Oni, Ogren, Doppelgangers and other creatures at War with the nations of the world.
