Hello citizens of Daunton, once again this is Lanessa Longtooth your favorite political correspondant.

Last week I uncovered the quiet bid by the Kingdom of Jade to procure outside military assistance in there struggle against the "Shadow." However the truth is more shocking then first anticipated. It seems the ranks of the Iron Legion are stretched too thin to support this action on the front. You can count on this reporter to make the trip to the front lines, and get the real scoop as it happens! Till then this is Lanessa Longtooth signing off.

New Adventure to be underway Shortly

Rumours abound that there have been a rash of assassinations recently of minor nobles, which the Daunton guard have been unable to stop. This has the aristocracy in an uproar and they have begun calling for the guard to bring in outside resources that specialize in these matters, but so far the guards have failed to give into these demands.

Captain Dewald had this to say "Unless these nobles want to be offering up more gold to be paying for these so called "outside specialists" we just can't afford it. Not with our budget anyways.", which sparked further outrage from the aristocracy demanding to know where their tax gold had been spent.

We'll keep you posted on any new developments in this tense situation.

[sblock=OOC]
I'll soon be starting a new adventure, please post in the discussion thread if you're currently looking to get in on one.

Political Correspondant Lanessa Longtooth here. I am currently trailing a group of mercenaries hired by the Kingdom of Jade to bolster there military presence on the frontlines.

When I left you I was tailing them to the embassy and with some well placed coins, and a few less then appropriate conversations with diplomats I managed to slide through the portal shortly behind them. The military camp here seems in dissaray and one soldier had this to say:

I saw the mercenaries walking off toward Maoleth. What business the general has for them there
I don't know. Only thing up there are some thrice blasted oni lovers, and some old ruins.

Could there be dissension on the border? Could people be voluntarily joining the Oni? Stay tuned. Until then this is Lanessa Longtooth reporting by sending stone.

MISSING DWARF

6 Eagle, Dwarf warrior, came here from the Valley of Bone 2 years ago. Not heard from since.

Reward offered for any information. Contact 7 Rabbit at the Hanged Man.


[sblock=OOC]
Just realized this reads a bit like an adventure invitation. It's actually an IC want-ad posted by Rabbit - I actually have no idea what happened to 6 Eagle. Yet.

Lanessa Longtooth reporting from the field. It's been some time since my last sending and I know my faithful readership in Daunton is just aching for more information!

I arrived in Maoleth mere hours after them, and my have they caused quite a stir already. Missing persons, ancient demons bound in a ritual, and an honest to claw demonic presence. Why I was listening outside their rooms and heard one of them channeling the demons of the pit themselves! They are talking about investigating the ruins nearby! Are they sympathetic to these demonic causes? Will they bring ruin or save the area? Stay tuned!

Until next time this is Lanessa Longtooth reporting by sending stone!

Rumors and rumblings- from reporter Teryl Truthclaw

New information just coming in from the hotbed of Daunton's adventuring community: The Hanged Man Tavern. It seems that a group of mostly monstrous pirates were briefly in town drinking and bragging about nearly killing a black dragon and getting away with it without loss of life on their part! Quite a feat for such an unknown group of adventurers. Of course, they are unknown no longer. Now several folks are talking about the Mostly Monstrous Crew and their supposed accomplishment. Of course, with no physical trophy to prove their claim, it is their word only that substantiates their allegation. Especially having only heard the tale second hand since the crew themselves were barely in the tavern long enough to get a single drink downed.

I'll keep an eye out for this crew in the future and will keep digging for the truth!

Welcome home!

Today, the boys of the Red River Company returned to Daunton after a long campaign in the Kingdom of Jade. Astute readers may recall that the head of this famous mercenary company, one Jargo Kitt, was the subject of a previous installment of our "Heroes and Persons of Interest in Daunton". The Daunton-born warrior has earned quite a name for himself in the Kingdom of Jade, he and his company are among the most trusted servants of the Iron General. Sources say that Jargo is "happy to be back home" and is "[looking] forward to spending some time away from war".
