Town Crier tells you, "One of Asheron's Emissaries is in the encampment south of the Iron Blade, well, 'Beach-head' I guess. He seems to be gathering groups of adventurers for some important task."
Town Crier tells you, "Out in the desert, around 4.3S 14.8E, a black substance has bubbled up into a mountain crevace. Whispers say that when the substance is touched it invades your mind. Tread lightly young adventurer, this seems like it is only the beginning."



Ulgrim Rumors

Free Rumors:

Stout Rumors:

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "So, I hear these new undead are friendlier because they use Alchemy for stuff. I wonder if it's the true power of Stout that has saved them from evil."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Ya I checked out the black pool. I wanted to see what it was like having thoughts in your head. The only thoughts that I heard were along the lines of "Go grab another stout." Seems like a smart pool to me."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Have you noticed how dazed the people at fishing holes look?"
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Just try talking to one of them. You'll be lucky if they even acknowledge you. More than likely they'll just stand there casting and casting and casting."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "They're Fishing Zombies! Fishing Zombies I tells you!"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Some monsters get stronger, some monsters get weaker. Just remember what ol' Ulgrim says when the health is down, fire is raining from the sky and monsters are clawing at his throat."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Strong...weak. I'm the one with the wand."

Deewain (22.4S .3W)

Deewain tells you, "I am Deewain. I would like to thank you strange creatures for bringing my pieces back together."
Deewain tells you, "Many odd creatures seem to inhabit the world these days, I can only hope that this means the Empyreans got what they deserved and are gone forever."
Deewain tells you, "I was once a servant for the Empyreans, created to do their bidding. As time passed on my intelligence began to increase. At first I kept it to myself and tried to learn as much about the world as I could. As my powers grew with my intelligence my creators began to worry."
Deewain tells you, "I tried to go off and be by myself so I could continue my quest for knowledge and learning, but the Empyreans would not let me be.

Deewain tells you, "They came after me and attempted to destroy what they had created and now feared. My magic had become powerful enough to resist these first attacks. Unfortunately this only made the Empyreans' fears increase, they did not understand that I did not wish harm to anyone."

Deewain tells you, "They returned more prepared and blasted me into pieces which they took and spread around the world. This was a punishment unlike any other as my intelligence was still intact but I had to suffer the inability to do anything but wait for thousands of years until this fine day when I have been able to reconstruct myself."

Deewain tells you, "Now I must rest to regain my energy, what has happened to evil race that caused me this pain?" You explain to Deewain the events the led up to the Empyreans leaving Auberean. Deewain tells you, "It seems the terrible nature of their kind finally got what it deserved. They are lucky, for if they were to still inhabit this land I would exact my revenge for the millenia of suffering they instilled upon me" Deewain tells you, "I must rest now."

Asheron tells you, "I have a bad feeling about the coming months, true danger may be in front of us."
