18 Kythorn 1500 DR
Suzail - Lady Alyanstelle Immerdusk’s hushed attempt to hire adventurers
to kidnap Lord Staglan Wintercoats was laid bare at the Dragonrider’s Club by a masked dancer cothed only in gleaming oils.
The end of the dancer’s performance saw Traegar Wintercoats, son and heir to House Wintercoats remove his mask and announce to the stunned crowd that he would pay 500 golden lions on top of Lady Alyanstelle’s promised fee to see his father safely detained and made to appear unharmed before the Lady in order to answer for crimes against her.
Just what “crimes” Lord Wintercoats is guilty of has left noble watchers across
Suzail to speculate.
One entertaining rumor first overheard at Hrelto’s, a tavern popular among nobles’ servants, claims Lord Wintercoats stole Lady Immerdusk’s favorite stallion, bred him and then gelded him, and left the unfortunate horse to run wild across her private estate bordering Taverton Hall—this the latest in a string of “punishments'' meted out by the furious lord, who holds Lady Immerdusk responsible for
matchmaking his son with a halfblood Scornubrian sorcerer the year prior.
