13 Kythorn 1500 DR
Suzail - Overnight, all of western
Suzail south of the Promenade became illuminated by hundreds of floating balls of light.
Stories told that night and the following morning point to no single source for the illumination. Rather, they appeared “all at once, everywhere.”
Folk living in the “Darkstreets” (as that part of
Suzail is referred to for its lack of nighttime illumination relative to the Docks and other parts of the city) took the opportunity to leave their homes and observe the lights. There were no major incidents reported to Crown authorities.
The floating lights faded away before the light of the sun touched Suzail’s western wall.
Elsewhere in Suzail, Crown officials have firmly denied rumors of Sembian warships attempting a nighttime raid of Marsember.
Information overheard within
The Royal Court and discretely shared beyond its walls suggests a trio of competing Sembian merchant vessels attempted to outrace each other in a bid to make port in the City of Spices. The first to arrive dared make port at night, but nearly sank after striking a wreck beneath the water.
Crown officials forced the other two ships to assist in keeping the damaged ship afloat, then arrested the crews and removed them to Starwater Keep for detention and questioning.
