[Blackwood]
The Winter Storm rages on. People are being found dead from the cold in various places. Roofs are collapsing beneath the weight of snow. Trade routes are blocked by the shear amount.
But there are also rumors of other peculiarities. A forest made entirely of fire; as an elemental might be compared to a person.
A town, that only has daylight.
A wheat field that has been turned entirely into black shattered glass.
There is the rumor of a man that has been turned into an icy statue.
A rumor of a fish maiden asking a lot of questions about Change.
People are talking about a bolt of lightning larger than they’d ever seen before come crashing down in the middle of a snow storm in Alonis.
[Eagle’s Rook]
A frightened refugee was sent from Broken Shield, Eagle's Rook, into the neighboring Kingdom of Chimeron, needing healing of all sorts. They bore a small, muddied message on parchment, that in no uncertain terms told Gaia worshippers of any kind weren't welcome in the country any longer, after the defilement of the Dionin Tower-in-Progress.
[Hibernia]
The mighty rainstorms have seemingly washed a giant chunk of the magical ice down rivers, floating wherever it can go yet freezing the water left behind in its wake. It stays frozen, even in the high temperatures at this time, confounding wildlife and rangers alike (but making ice fishers happy!).
[Wendmor]
A traveling group from the west has made their way into the neutral village, asking for asylum. They promise to work hard and follow any rules that Wendmor and the surrounding lands of Invictus have put out, in return for space to build co-housing and two barns.
