Serpent’s Hold Held!

...By Greenskirted Traitors

This week has seen some horrendous mishaps – only yesterday, on another of my attempted odysseys to Yew, my poor little footsie got rather stuck in the mud and I lost one of my most favourite shoes. It had a simply gorgeous slender heel, with a devilish mix of glitter and a stimulating splash of sequins. I shall have to buy at least a dozen more pairs by the time the week is out to get over my love of that little shoe.

In spite of my plight, it seems that ‘Daftie’ Devante has earned himself a sob story that maybe even tops my tale of woe. Armed with his trusty bow and hearty pride, he and his merry band of marksmen set off to capture the Kaldorian infested hole of Serpent’s Hold once and for all. Unfortunately for the poor old Captain, he didn’t get permission from Jordan Jurrel (doesn’t he just look dashing in that gleaming armour of his? He could certainly dip his quill in my inkwell any day!) to go ahead with the reckless invasion and, of course, they were a sorry state indeed.

The Kaldorian fleabags, hungry for victory and famous for their rigid ‘box’ formations and brutish axe waving, were quick to claim this easy battle as theirs. Learning from this predictable outcome, of course, the marksmen then came at the greenskirts once again in a much similar manner and were battered senseless once again. It was at this point that the Captain brought out his most devious tactical plan and… ran into the pointy objects the Kaldorians were holding once again. Oh dear.

Battered and bruised, the marksmen returned home. The Kaldorians, it seems, can keep their rat-infested hell-hole of Serpent’s Hold… at least for now.

Bar Staff Battered!

Frightful happenings in Vesper…

Further shock and dismay! The much loved (by Rebel scumbags and off-duty Loyalists alike) Swaggers Inn in Vesper was broken into most viciously by 4 unidentified suspects. A flustered barmaid was reported to have run off to find some local sober guards – who was she kidding?

Choosing the proactive method of robbing, the brigands were quick to wound barmaid Becca’s new ‘best friend’ Hedlyn ap Rhyn and also Tom Black. Considering this as a little too peaceful for their liking, Hanse’s Niece Lotnya Davion was smacked violently as an afterthought. Happiy, Rebecca ran off and left her chums to bleed alone, so at least one barmaid’s left to serve the drinks!

A reward of 10, 000 coins has been offered to any local vigilantes and mercenaries who can bring the suspects to the Vesperian jail, although the preferred vital condition of the suspects was not specified. According to Rebecca, who is offering the reward, the dastardly robbers looked a little bit like..

I don’t know about you, dear readers, but that ‘orc’ look just makes me swoon! If you’re approached by any of these individuals, please refrain from running away in terror – smack ‘em over the head with a frying pan and drag them to jail!

Rumours

It’s been mentioned so often lately that it has to be published. Don’t you think the Duchy Guard of Trinsic are just the most benevolent and delightful force ever to grace the land of Sosaria? We certainly think so, and we give extra special notice to the lovely Kaelyn, who has promised so kind-heartedly to let the Poste Office stay in Trinsic despite its overwhelming debt. Of course, donations are always welcome!
