Town Crier Rumors
Town Crier tells you, "I heard of some new houses northwest of Zaikhal and in the far northeast of Osteth. With Spring on the way the weather should be pleasant there now."
Town Crier tells you, "I can tell that Spring has come at last! Have you seen all the beautiful sunflowers growing in the meadows yet? I can't wait to pick some to decorate my house!"
Town Crier tells you, "Something seems to be wrong with the Agents of the Arcanum. I've heard some nasty rumors about their leader. Did you know what she did to her most trusted advisor? Well, I'm not going to get in the middle of this."
Town Crier tells you, "A traveller from the Plateau Village informed me he spotted some fine, new houses southeast of there. Abundant hunting in that locale. But are you the hunter or the hunted?"
Town Crier tells you, "I bought a rumor at a tavern about a man who is trying to track down what happened to his older sister. He offers a reward. His name is Glysander Cartoth and he lives in Cragstone."
Town Crier tells you, "My cousin said something about finding odd amulets from some creatures that he had been hunting... They look pretty useless. There is a Royal Guard outside of Lin guarding a warehouse though--he might know something about them."
Town Crier tells you, "The Agents of the Arcanum have provided us with residential quarters for communal defense! Remember, there is safety in numbers! You can get to them through portals from the capitol towns of Zaikhal, Hebian-To and Cragstone."
The Town Crier turns to you with an air of panic and starts to whisper hoarsely. "Have you seen the statues lately? I was walking past one to my post this morning, and I could swear it looked as if it was getting ready to pounce! They've gone...bad...somehow...
Town Crier tells you, "The Arcanum promised they were there for our good! They said they were our reward!" The Town Crier looks ready to burst into tears. Town Crier tells you, "How could they have done this to us?"
Town Crier tells you, "Wedding planners have joined the Arcanum Agents in the nine Nexus towns. All that you might want for the wedding of your dreams are now available in their inventories."
Town Crier tells you, "Glysander Cartoth of Cragstone is looking for help in tracking down some letters that Elysa Strathelar wrote to his older sister. His sister is missing and he offers a reward."
Town Crier tells you, "The Arcanum has dispatched a researcher to the libraries at Cragstone, Hebian-To and Zaikhal. They have sent out a call to all those who could help them find the way to disable the statues--go to them, quickly! You must help our cities destroy the statues!"
Town Crier tells you, "I hear tell that there is a man who seems rather pleased with himself up in the area of Stonehold. He seems a little out of place, and he's quite ornery..."
Town Crier tells you, "A hidden library, much like the lost city of Frore...or so I have overheard while in the tavern, here in town."
Town Crier tells you, "The Lugians have recently sent our furniture vendors a shipment of Travos crystal quarried down in their mines. I love mine--they're perfect for flower arrangements!"
The Town Crier couldn't possibly look more terrified. Town Crier tells you, "Everyone knows Nuhmidira first introduced the statues to the Arcanum...she insisted they would help protect the cities and they believed her. But the statues have started to attack us! Nuhmidira is gone now...and NO ONE KNOWS HOW TO TURN THEM OFF! Run! Head for the hills! Do not worry about me, I must be brave!"
Town Crier tells you, "Have you seen the new wedding chapels that have been built? Almost makes me wish I had someone special..."
Ulgrim Rumors
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Yeah, monogamy is for suckers, besides I'm married to my job."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "That's the stuff!"
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Another town lost, elementals taking over everywhere, what's with this world anyway?"
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "We should all move to the underground cities and wait for this thing to blow over."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I hear people have seen Nuhmudira near the Arcanum. If she's really back then she's one tough woman. Yup..."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Hope she isn't still sore about that whole death lever thing."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Seems to me that the monsters of Dereth have started some sort of black market for their stolen goods. The other day I found some Covenant Armor on a Banderling. Perhaps they have been stealing items from the Arcanum after all."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I think Gaerlan's Citadel is heading this way. He must have heard of my prowess and now he's coming to challenge me. Do me a favor and warn me if you see his Citadel on the horizon so that I can... prepare."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I imbued my sword. I bet it would do some nasty damage if I could lift it."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It's also a rather nice nightlight."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I was tired of having to run over hills just to kill a creature so I created the Arcing Spells. Now everyone is using them and nobody is giving me any credit! I think I deserve the title Archmage at least."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Give me any rings you don't want. I've been collecting them ever since I found one near the water the other day."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Ulgrim the Archmage, Master of Time and Space, Leader of the Virindi Resistance, Master Tinkerer, Seer of Truths, Master of the Jewelry, Peppermint Cook, Celebrations Advisor to the Queen. Yes, that fits nicely with my other titles."
