Subject: Ex-Interim Mayor of Landing Confirmed Dead

On the morning of last Restday, local citizens reported finding the headless body of a woman laying in the snow outside of Moot Hall.

The citizen was quoted, "I had just went inside to put stuff in my locker, I came out and the body was suddenly there!"

Militia were quick to the scene and carried the corpse away. After days of investigations, it was confirmed that indeed the decapitated body belonged to that of the ex-interim mayor, Chambeli Malatina.

Mayor Walkar took a few moments to comment on the situation, "The city mourns the loss of Lady Chambeli. She had led the town the last two years and she never asked anything in return. Only recently did she run for the official position of Mayor, and even though she did not win, she had always been gracious and kind to me in the aftermath."

"We originally thought her lost at sea, and now we are aware of some very strange circumstances that have occurred surrounding her death. A full report will be issued to the public in the coming days, as I feel it is in every one's best interest to understand what we are truly up against. Our enemies taunt us, with bodies before our Hall, and demons before our gates. But they cannot match our resolve, that of our defenders and our allies."

A few shouts from the gathered crowd asked the Mayor to confirm the reports of an orc killing Chambeli, but Walkar refused to comment and headed back inside.

Subject: Think with portals, or, Let's do some science!

To disseminate a bit of field information and possibly answer some questions..:

As of last evening, the first of Lumnea 5011, a number of everyone's favorite red portals emerged again over Wehnimer's Landing. Immediately following their appearance, vathors of the towering horned variety emerged; these were repelled, but not without casualties.

Shortly thereafter, Commander Drangell appeared again with his usual axe to grind, pun intended. Following some words with him and attempts to stay the citizenry's hands while, generally, interrogating, he was apprehended by shadows, surmised to be the work of the Arcane Eyes. Post departure, the warparty in which I was present and a number of passersby were beset by undead, including shadow golems and shadow beasts.

This raises the question of a possible rift beginning to form between the enemy ranks, denoted by our attempt to sway the troll commander in favor of turning his sights from the frontier and towards the 'Robes,' as they are colloquially referred, while attempting to reason and reinvest him in his former self before the 'curse,' apparently a giantmannish mercenary.

The portals, however, are another task; Akhash, the Tehir spiritualist, was working towards warding the walls to prevent this, however my conjecture is that the task will be more difficult with portals already there. He requires a strong spiritual source from the surrounding region, preferrably not elemental as they are unreliable and hostile and not Arkati as they are 'too distant,' to continue his work and aid us in unravelling Commander Drangell's current affliction. He can only perform one or the other.

Interim Mayor Skips Town, 12/12/2011

Subject: Interim Mayor Skips Town

It was reported early this morning that Interim Mayor Barnom Slim smuggled himself out of town in the middle of the night. The constable had found Barnom's office almost bare, but most troubling was the news that a sizeable amount of money from the town's coffers had gone missing.

Rumors have indicated that Barnom Slim and his stolen money boarded a ship on the north docks and its speculated destination was the town of River's Rest.

As a result of the considerable loss to the town's treasury, the entire new militia, once put in place by Barnom himself, has resigned their post but kept their weapons, when they were informed they would not be getting paid.

Helga was on edge all morning, "What now? Our militia isn't getting paid. The streets go unguarded and there's a great evil still out there. I hope that interim mayor Slime didn't chase off all of our heroes, because something tells me we need them now more than ever."

Subject: Set in Stone - Details and Thanks!

Well my summoner storyline concluded a few days ago, with the ending of the final chapter "Set in Stone." It's been a long 16 months and I can honestly say I enjoyed every single second of it. I have no one else to thank for that but you all, the players. I truly hope you've enjoyed yourselves as much as I have and I'm so very proud of the role playing that happened in and around Wehnimer's Landing from all of you. I worried many times that I was invading too much, or dragging the storyline out too long, but you all kept coming back for more. My goal was to bring life back into Wehnimer's Landing and most importantly, keep it there. So I really hope that spirit endures and trust me, while this storyline may be over, there is more plots in the work for the future.

In the coming days I will be posting my storyline timeline so you can all catch up on everything that happened, beginning to end. There shouldn't be too many loose ends (unless intentional) but I will be happy to answer the ones I can on the forums or in the upcoming OOC town meeting. Below I will be listing storyline credits and thanks, because without a number of other GameMasters lending me their help, time and support, none of this would have happened. Following that I will be listing the details about the monsters I used during the storyline, many of them on Erythro Island.

As always, I welcome feedback on the storyline, not just the final chapter, but anything if you have it to share. Good, bad, I'm never offended because I use all forms of criticism to help adapt for the future. Thank you all for following along and I can't wait until next time.
