Corvis : Shipping News – Issue 4
Hoax or Reality. Undead Trick or Treat!
The military of Corvis was put on high alert today. The basis of this alert seems to be news regarding an attack on the city due in the next couple of days, by an undead army! Captain Helstrom has mustered the Blue Coats and Nigh Glass militia, doubling street patrols, gate guards and mounted patrols into the woods/ Magistrate Borloch however has suggested that the whole thing is nothing more than someone’s idea of a grand (but over done) plan for the Longest Night, he warns that “The church and city council will take a dim view on anyone caught up in necromancy, even at this time of year!”
Dented Helm “Corvis Lager” Launch.
Rhulic brewer Garek, announces that the 1000 Crown tables are almost fully booked for the big launch event. Notable attendees include everyone who is anyone and a few anyone’s who wish they were someone. Free beer, food and of course the new Corvis Lager will be flowing for the honored guests. Rumor has it that the Llael embassy booked 3 tables!!!
“6th I” Drug Price Drops!
While Yellow Shield gang members have been visible less than usual over the past week, the price of “6th I” has dropped due to an increase in supply. The price has made the drug readily affordable to the average man on the street. Certainly not a good thing. The ever invisible Mr. Wednesday sent us an announcement just today, offering a reward of 2000 Crowns for information leading to the death or capture of the people behind the supply and smuggling of the drug into Corvis.
Menoth Chapel Defaced
Exemplar Viloss is said to be less than impressed with the city watch after his new chapel was defaced. Apparently anti Menoth Slogans were painted on the alls of the church and the altar was left with some less than charitable donations. Exemplar Viloss was more concerned with the incompetence of the watch than he defacement of his chapel, “Even Morrow acknowledged that Menoth is the father of all gods!” was his statement before returning to cleaning the chapel.
Warehouse Burnt Down!
In spite of a city wide ban on fireworks being set off during the Longest Night celebrations, it seems some folks just don’t listen, A large explosion ripped apart a warehouse held by the Khador Trade Representative Office. Apparently the fire was set off by locally hired guards who lacked the common sense to see off Skigg with buckets of water. The guards were all swiftly arrested by the watch and are being held on charges of Arson. They could also yet be hauled up on charges of , illegal discharge of firearms and possession of illegal weapons. The Trial is sent for the 7th of Glaceus.
Ogrun Assaulted by Rats!
In related news, one of the hired help was said to be none other than an Ogrun. Who according to sources “Screamed like a Bogger bitch with her hair on fire when he saw the Skiggs!” A sad day for Ogrun everywhere.
Message from the new Ambassador.
His lordship Aryn Lymos was presented as the new ambassador. Promoted from his role as Trade Attaché, Lord Lymos had the following statement “Following from the unpleasant incident that occurred in Corvis this month I am delighted to take on the role of Ambassador to Corvis. I hope to ensure that trade continues to flourish between Cygnar and Llael and that we will not let this incident become and issue for either nation.”
Bridge Troll Slaughters Hunters
A team of 7 “so called” experienced hunters set off to take down the Bridge Troll north of the city were slaughtered. The only survivor (as usual) being Gregor Grundi. He had plenty to say on the fight and remains optimistic that the Troll will kill plenty more people in rather bloody fashion before it’s taken down. Ashley Alton was unavailable for comment, apparently heading North on university business.
