Rumors for May 1024

[Across the Realms]

Crudely drawn and poorly spelled posters have been nailed to seemingly random trees in the more remote and wild places of the Realms. With some difficulty the posters are interpreted to say “Join Raging Rodents! Meet at Mid-Realm!”

[Blackavar]

A great earthquake has struck Blackavar! Many homes have been damaged, and locals fear new terrors now stalk in the night, with green eyes glowing in the darkness. Old Man Franklin even reported seeing a flaming circle erupt out of nowhere!

[Chimeron]

Peasants in Chimeron have noticed a particular forest has recently been undergoing rapid growth, with trees sprouting overnight, thick vines blocking paths, and strange plant monsters causing chaos. Some were quick to blame fae shenanigans or new fertilizer, but strange cloaked figures taking an interest in the phenomenon make it seem like there’s something more going on. They have been helping push back the overgrowth with mysterious powers of decay, but what do they really want?

Increased activity around the subterranean portal to Gi followed a small delegation of native Gidans traveling to the Realms. Folks who are close to militia stationed around the portal say the visitors were members of the Resistance delivering intelligence on locations to be scouted by adventurers from the Realms.
