A new emperor for our nation

On the 11th of Sun’s Smile, 1471. A new emperor was elected to rule over the Empire, listen to people and keep the nation safe from threats.

 

Tuvya of House Carrion has sworn to our creator to represent our nation in good or bad times, keeping the innocent safe from harm.

 

In the ceremony, Emperor-Elect Tuvya kneeled before the Lorraine and the High Pontiff, Daniel I. He recited his oaths to church and state. Afterwards, he received the onyx Crown of the Exalted and the Gilded Blade of St Adrian.

 

The new emperor will surely bring better times for the empire and we will prosper more than what any other nation could, prosperous times are right around the corner.

 

Fishing a relic

Fishing on the river outside Furstenburg, Phillip Krasline, a skilled fisher and part-time guard of our Majesty the Emperor, found a strange rock after a tug on his line. The rock appears to be an old knife carved out of a stone. He said "You can see it for yourself, it's crealy older than even the ruins here in Athera".

For now the carved stone knife will be kept by Phillip until the Imperial Museum is finished.

 

Phillip will return in the next issue to tell us all about the capture of the Fishlord.

Clan Irongut harasses Oren’s greatest chef

A report by Cain Vir Miles

The Bada Bing Inn just outside of Petrus, owned by Oren's greatest chef known as Vinnie, is in the process of being stolen by the greedy dwarves of the Irongut clan. The clan seems to believe that the land the Bada Bing Inn is built on belongs to them, and not to Vinnie. To them, this means the inn belongs to them as well. Shortly after leaving, I was able to ask him what the Clan father of Irongut, Balek, was going to do next. He replied with, "Don't worry about them, I will be back and have them handled..." This seems to be very foreboding for Vinnie.

 

I joined the group of men and women headed towards the Bada Bing Inn as they feverishly sprinted to Vinnie's aid. Once we got there, clan father Balek Irongut refused to open the doors, and threatened those that were there. After a short period of arguing, the door was broken down, and people rushed in from the back. After a brief moment of thick intensity, Balek agreed to leave.

 

What will become of the Bada Bing Inn? Will Vinnie get to keep his restaurant, or will the Irongut clan be back to take him down? Find out more next week, when all of this gets resolved.

 

Books & Reviews.

The Farmer, by Wilhelm von Bran

“The Farmer & The Witch, or The Defeat of the Conjurer”, a two part series, is a captivating and well written story about events in an unnamed village in the Waldenian forests. It’s focussed on a man’s struggles and foes he has to deal with. Mainly in the second part is an elevating use of rhyme, making the books a joy to read.

A must read!

Words of the Emperor.

To many of our fledgling state, the customs and traditions of my people of the Raev come off as foreign, *****, or outright disagreeable. Though predecessors of mine who shared my blood desired to make Oren a Raevir state all-and-all, such outlandish desires my Reign shall bring an end to. I may be the eldest of living Crows and patriarch of my House, yet I was not born amongst the people of Raev. My childhood home was the orphanage of Old Abresi, where I was warded until I was old enough to strike out on my own. Heartlander traditions and speech come more naturally to I than my blood of Raev, and I simply wish to reassure all who remain loyal to our Realm that there shall be no pushing of Raev culture or language amongst our denizens, that Raev will largely be isolated from the affairs of our realm, and that my Reign is not that of Raev, but that of Man.

 

Creator’s blessings to all subjects of Oren,

Tuvya Sigismundovic Carrion

Vykk Volaren nods in approval, "Its almost as good as the Athera herald..."

[Cracker 4570]

"Excellent!" remarks Daniel. "It'd do good with some illustrations, but there is no greater joy than to see the peoples foster intellectual traditions."

[xDK 1205]

The Wicked Witch walks by the stand with newspapers, glancing at the folded papers. "Interesting.. This could be useful.." She turns, throwing her cape over her shoulder, her eyes shifting around under her hood, as she leaves the city.

[Catarrh 720]

*A copy of a thick book entitled An Orc's Life has been placed in the "Letters to the Editor" donation box. It smells like cactus green, and appears to be a full book, rather than a letter to the editor. Large footprints sink into the dirt and gravel around the bookstore.*

[Alakabam 582]

A noble knight leaves a small looking package on the doorstep of the paper's office. As the package would be opened you would find a small note inside. It reads in horrible looking handwriting, "You better feature us. You will be contacted." at further inspection the ink seems to be dried up blood.

Moved to the Great Library. It shall be sorted into appropriate category shortly.
