|Town Crier tells you, "If you're a map hound like me, you should seek out Sean the Speedy in Holtburg to learn about the new points the Explorers' Society has marked."
|Town Crier tells you, "A hunter of ghosts named Sharia Blackmist seeks assistance with a hunt among the powerful undead of the Mhoire Graveyard."

==== [[Ulgrim]] Rumors ====
{{Dialog|
''Free Rumors''
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "If you ask me, the Virindi Apostates have been a little too quiet.  Even Claude doesn't say anything much these days.  They're up to something..."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Oh, don't bother searching out Sean the Speedy's new exploration markers.  I've already stolen them all.  For a stout, I'll put them back though."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "There's something new in the crater by the Crystalline Crag.  Yep, I dropped my favorite mug down there while I was tinkering with my new machine.  Be a dear and fetch it for me?"
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Truly?  You want to know about the wisdom of the ancients?  Or at least the wisdom of this ancient?  Well, I could tell you about the new ghost hunter lady in the graveyard, but it'll cost you a pint of stout."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "What?  Why are you bothering me?  Fetch an old man a stout to wet his whistle and maybe you'll hear about what's going on in Aerlinthe these days."


''Stout Rumors''
== Game Changes ==
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I know who's behind the bandit raids on Baishi. It's Ben Ten!  She's gone bad, I tell you!  Bad bad bad!  Bad like beer that's been left out too long!"
* The higher tier of loot now drops from creatures on Moarsman Isle, Freebooter Isle, Graveyard and Dark Isle.
* Hiltable Daggers and Swords now drop from creatures on Moarsman Isle, Freebooter Isle, Graveyard and Dark Isle.
* Silk is now a free tinker with no chance to fail.


|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'll give you a hint on the Dereth exploration landmarks this time around.  You must seek out... What was it now?  Seek out... Oh, yes, seek out the landmarks.  Can't fail if you just seek out the landmarks.  And another stout."
== New Quests ==
* [[Ghost Hunter Quest]]


|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Is it just me, or has the weather seemed like a particularly cruel joke lately?  Things just haven't been the same since I set off that experimental weather spell... If it is my fault, I apologize.  All it will take for me to fix it is another stout."
== New Events ==
* [[2009 Live Events#7/4/09 - 7/17/09 - Ries Woron and the Thugs|7/4/09 - 7/17/09 - Ries Woron and the Thugs]]


|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Mark my word, there's a reason those Apostates are laying low.  They know every time they poke their heads out of the ether, we resourceful humans are there to smack em in their shiny fake noses.  Thanks in no small part, I think, to my vigilance over this critical depot in the island's stout supply network."
== Updated Quests ==
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Oh, is Aerfalle making a big fuss again?  I guess she's done crying over her poor soul-trapped boyfriend Rytheran.  I should go pay her a visit, cheer her up.  She said I could always make her laugh.  Or did she call me laughable?  Well, same difference, really."
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Sharia Blackmist is out and kicking around in the graveyard, eh?  Surprise surprise.  I was one of her instructors in university back in Ispar.  She was of those girls who overdid it with the eyeshadow, wore lots of silver jewelry, and mooned over dead poets.  What do you call them?  Huns?  Vandals?"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "If you ask me, the Virindi Apostates have been a little too quiet. Even Claude doesn't say anything much these days. They're up to something..."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Oh, don't bother searching out Sean the Speedy's new exploration markers. I've already stolen them all. For a stout, I'll put them back though."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "There's something new in the crater by the Crystalline Crag. Yep, I dropped my favorite mug down there while I was tinkering with my new machine. Be a dear and fetch it for me?"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Truly? You want to know about the wisdom of the ancients? Or at least the wisdom of this ancient? Well, I could tell you about the new ghost hunter lady in the graveyard, but it'll cost you a pint of stout."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "What? Why are you bothering me? Fetch an old man a stout to wet his whistle and maybe you'll hear about what's going on in Aerlinthe these days."

Stout Rumors

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I know who's behind the bandit raids on Baishi. It's Ben Ten! She's gone bad, I tell you! Bad bad bad! Bad like beer that's been left out too long!"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'll give you a hint on the Dereth exploration landmarks this time around. You must seek out... What was it now? Seek out... Oh, yes, seek out the landmarks. Can't fail if you just seek out the landmarks. And another stout."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Is it just me, or has the weather seemed like a particularly cruel joke lately? Things just haven't been the same since I set off that experimental weather spell... If it is my fault, I apologize. All it will take for me to fix it is another stout."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Mark my word, there's a reason those Apostates are laying low. They know every time they poke their heads out of the ether, we resourceful humans are there to smack em in their shiny fake noses. Thanks in no small part, I think, to my vigilance over this critical depot in the island's stout supply network."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Oh, is Aerfalle making a big fuss again? I guess she's done crying over her poor soul-trapped boyfriend Rytheran. I should go pay her a visit, cheer her up. She said I could always make her laugh. Or did she call me laughable? Well, same difference, really."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Sharia Blackmist is out and kicking around in the graveyard, eh? Surprise surprise. I was one of her instructors in university back in Ispar. She was of those girls who overdid it with the eyeshadow, wore lots of silver jewelry, and mooned over dead poets. What do you call them? Huns? Vandals?"
