For the last week, adventurers in and around Wehnimer's Landing have reported seeing a speck of bluish-green light, twinkling in the night sky every hour or so. In the last few nights, the light has appeared to have gotten brighter. A few local scholars and priests in the frontier town were questioned about the light, but none could offer whether it might be the herald of something good, or a bad omen indicating peril on the horizon.

Subject: Falling Sky in Wehnimer's Landing!
On the eve of the Day of the Huntress, the 4th of Ivastaen, the twinkling blue-green light in Wehnimer's Landing night sky began to grow in size, and became brighter with each passing moment. Soon the light intensified before a bluish-green sphere appeared, glowing as it fell from the sky! The brilliant sphere landed near the Coastal Cliffs, leaving a huge crater in the ground and sending quakes trembling through the entire area.
Local adventures eventually located the crater, and soon saw a forest gnome named Murley come crawling out of the hole, coughing and wheezing as he held up a green crystal orb for all to see. Murley told those present that he was a visiting farmer from Grawood Farmstead in the Empire, and that he had seen the light land near where he was walking and climbed down into the crater and found the orb. The orb itself was flawless and emerald green, with azure light churning within it. After answering as many questions as he could, the gnome was encountered by Mayor Walkar who had arrived to witness the disturbance. Later the strange orb was given to the Mayor to have the town archmage Pherantyr, and the museum curator Glethad, examine it and try to learn its origin, if any.
The mayor informed those present that whatever the town officials learned about the orb from the sky, would be shared publicly as soon as possible.

Subject: The Orbs Origins!
After long hours, and sleepless nights, the curator Glethad, and archmage Pherantyr believe they have discovered the true origins of the green orb that fell from the sky, leaving a crater along the Coastal Cliffs.
The item appears to be an ancient relic, but no further details were given. Instead, the artifact is set to go up on display in the Wehnimer's Landing Museum, and over the next few days the curator Glethad will be holding a presentation in the museum to describe in full detail the history of the orb.
The curator will announce when his presentation happens, and invites all who are interested to attend.

Subject: Ancient Elven Artifact Revealed
It has been reported that The Argent Mirror has received word of an elven artifact, the Eye of Ta'Ashrim, being held in the Wehnimer Landing Museum. It is rumored that she has sent Caylio Javilerre and a group of Illistim scholars to the frontier town to investigate and confirm its origin. The Argent Mirror was heard saying that the if the artifact was indeed genuine, then it should be returned to the elven city-states to be studied and kept safe.

Subject: Factions Descend on Wehnimer's Landing
The Argent Mirror has sent an envoy to Wehnimer's Landing to inspect the new relic in the museum, while a reformed pirate, turned merchant captain from Brisker's Cove has recently docked his ship in town. Meanwhile, a handful of black row boats and krolvin scouts have been reported being encountered along the Black Sands near town. The Wehnimer's mayor has spoken out, addressing some of the citizen's concerns…
Mayor Walkar, of Wehnimer's Landing, made the following statement:
"Many have written to me, or expressed their concern over the growing attention this green orb has brought our town. Rest assured, we are fully capable of protecting the relic, while preserving our relationships with our allies. The town council and I have welcomed the Argent Mirror's envoy, and have established comfortable accommodations for them during their stay. Their scholars, and guards, will have access to the artifact, but will be accompanied by members of our own militia at all times while on the museum grounds."
"The captain, named Thanden, who sailed into port with the flag of Brisker's Cove, is to be afforded the luxuries our town has to offer, in accordance with our Merchant's Guild policies, which are extended to all visiting imperial merchants. Given his past as a pirate, and once a wanted criminal within the Empire itself, I strongly urge the captain that he and his crew be on their best behavior. We welcome business from the empire, but will not tolerate deception of any kind."
"In regards to the krolvin, I will tell you this. They are a race of miscreant creatures, never to be trusted, never to be given mercy. They are no allies to any nations. Extend a hand to a fallen krolvin, and no sooner will you find his dirk lodged in your throat. Perhaps the bodies of their scouts staining the Black Sands red will be enough warning to them. We will respond to any krolvin threat swiftly and with incredible might, enough to chill even their arctic blood."
