Subject: Dateline 5/5/2009: LAKE OF FEAR FERRY REDESIGNED AND REMANNED

The court of King Tyrnian announced that in order to facilitate the ease for travellers to see and do business in Ta'Vaalor, the ferry crossing the Lake of Fear has been refitted, and extra rowers have been hired.

Responses to this latest development have been mixed. While most spurn the idea of more outsiders, some business owners are pleased with the announcements, with one exclaiming, "The King is dead on with this decision. This means we'll have halflings, half-elves, dwarves, giantkin, and all other sorts of folks showing up! I can't wait for the silver to roll in!"

The result of this upgrade is that the ferry runs approximately twice as fast as it did previously.

To the people of Ta'Vaalor,

Late last evening, the Captain of the Lake of Fear ferry was found wandering aimlessly into the Ravelin. Incoherent and near death, the Captain was able to give bits and pieces about what happened.

The freeze happened so quickly, they had no time to react. The force of the ice crushed the ferry with ease, and all hands were tossed into the semi-solid mass that was once the Lake of Fear. The Captain kept his wits about him and managed to move across the more solid areas and worked his way toward shore. What happened next is still unclear, as the Captain will only speak of the screams of his crew and the cold.

With this news, the Crown declares both the ferry and her crew lost, and extends its deepest condolences to the families of the crew and commends them for their years of service.

His Majesty King Qalinor the Sovereign Commander of the Crimson Legions
