[QUOTE="hirou, post: 7848438, member: 6776023"] There is a rumor in my campaign that is indefinitely in state of uncertainty because my players haven't got any time to verify it in full. At Ob convocation in adv.7 Nicodemus happened to mention that "whole southern Lanjyr is already controlled by dragons, and they're trying to spread their power to the north". That may have been just one of the things he says to make the people feel important - they're saving the world from new dragon tyrants! and it's urgent! - or that may have been true. Consider: [LIST] [*]Harkover Lee is the first minister and trusted advisor of the king, basically the second person in Risur.
