Rumors for December 1024

[Arken]

As the expedition to Midrealm continues to gather supplies and volunteers, an unexpected difficulty has arisen: Scrying magic into Midrealm has been unexpectedly difficult and unclear

[A random village]

Residents of a small wooded village report disturbing changes.  A nearby empty field was replaced overnight with a large meadow, covered in tall and unusual plant life.  Locals who went to explore the new meadow never returned.  Meanwhile, farmers have been missing cattle, the only clue to the livestock’s disappearance being large, beastly footprints left behind.

[Blackavar]

Reports of activity in an old ruined settlement to the east of the mountains of Blackavar has raised concerns among the nobility. 

[Across the Realms]

All across the Realms crows have been spotted carrying all manner of gifts in their talons. They seem to be converging in a snowy glade where a fancy crow is inspecting the presents. 

[Chimeron City]

There have been scattered reports of healing magic working a little too well within the city - the occasional Heal Limb causing muscle growth, or a Raise Dead seeming to make its target not only alive but several years physically younger. While these incidents have not been frequent or severe enough to cause alarm, some citizens have been speculating about the cause of these side effects.

[Saurabian Empire]

Talk of increased wages have tempered the discussions of secession. Skeptics some believe in the increased wages, but there are second- and third-hand reports of some people receiving their new wages.
