General Rumors about Town

1. The Council refused the Xvimlar’s petition for official recognition again. This can only mean war with the North-siders.
2. With the new wall complete, housing prices in the old Slums are starting to skyrocket, forcing people out into the district around Kuto’s Well.
3. Because of food shortages, the Council has put forward a bill to outlaw all festival activities during the Feast of the Moon.
4. Matteo’s smithy had to close down after the council started dumping criminals off the New Wall right beside his shop.
5. A group of monstrous insurgents, apparently going by the callsign ‘F-K-A’ have built a fort right outside the New Wall, right under the Red Plumes noses.
6. Several new businesses have opened inside the New Wall. Not that anyone can afford them with the Council’s tarrifs.
7. Dozens of adventurers have hunted for the Basilisk believed to be stalking the Old City. Most haven’t returned. Those that did were empty-handed.
8. The new Pub being built just inside the New Wall is supposedly run by a dwarf, but says it’ll be serving Hillsfarran Dragonbreath Ale. How’d they pull that off?
9. The Marquis of Kryptgarden has shown up in Council Session again. Guess he wasn’t killed after all.
10. The Cheeseeater Goblins claim their homes and farms were attacked by a Gnoll raiding party.
