Some of the villagers have been getting a little antsy over some odd growling during the night. In my new position, it is my duty to undertake this task and investigate, however... I fear werewolves may be the cause, judging by the signs and a recent decrease in cattle there's at least two, maybe three. I must keep the villagers safe at night, the crafty creatures would strike should I leave them unguarded. I beseech you, my Lords and ladies, please put a stop to this menace.

I got a letter from my sister m'lords... she lives due East of here, in the river city upon the marshes. The one with all them pink birds and the like? She's scared m'lords. People 'ave been dying and vanishing in the nights. Found with bite marks on their necks. There's a vampire coven working in their midst, hiding out somewhere... but the creatures seem smarter, more precise than others, the town guard can't 'andle em. Please, I beg ye, help my sister and 'er home. They need a savior, just as I got.

Remnants of the goblins who attacked Redford are camping North East of the cities borders, in the colder and windier areas surrounding the Northern mountains. If they still retain any of the intelligence gifted by their one time master, we may yet learn more about the Mesmer Knight that attacked the village two days ago. Be careful however, rumors also place a Griffon in that area.

Someone has been breaching the castke by night. Food is going missing, scrolls are being stolen and the risk of important information leaking out is too great to ignore. Alton has informed me of strange markings and shingles falling off the few building we have rebuilt since the villagers arrival... so it is believed that our thief is traversing higher ground to avoid detection by night. Find this perpetrator and bring them into custody if possible. A word of warning however, for this person to break my wards and enter Pharus Castle implies a great deal of magical energy. Proceed with extreme caution.

I assume a lot of you are warriors of some repute, however, I desire to test you further against one another. Two willing riders should come to me and preform an organized duel to allow me judge your individual skill.

Dear Riders,
I'm expected t'feed t'town as a butcher... but ye ne'er told me that there'd be not a scrap of food here in yer stores. I understand tha yer busy people and tha this place needs a lot of work... but I'm no hunter, I cannae go out there and get the meat maself. A herd o' gargantuan boars are making their way across the Western plains... maybe you could try and hunt em for us? Better yet, if you can manage to wrangle the bastards into the large corral just outside the town gate, I could probably breed them indefinitely. Shouldn't be too different from t'cows, right? If you need a hand in t'wrangling, I'd be willin' t'go with ye.

The efforts to rebuild Pharus are going rather well my Lords and Ladies, however it is tough work for us few to do. The assistance of you and your dragons in any way you can think of would leave us further in your depth.

I have made contact with the Dwarven king, Warden Steelbeard. He wishes to meet with an envoy of ours as proof of the Riders return. Meet with him North West in the Dwarven town of Yaltan. Show only the utmost respect, this could mean much for our cause.

A nearby woodland has recent suffered a sinkhole at its core, leading to a strange cave that folks have avoided. A small cave of human and elf scouts sits at the edge, join them, your presence will bolster their strength and with them you might find the source of the strange occurrence.

Regalia has been abuzz lately as the grand tournament to bring about a new challenger for the human throne is well underway. I have discussed our cause with a potential candidate, one Doran Axebearer, should he rise to the position of King he will support our cause. However, although the games are supposedly fair play, members of the human noble council often back fighters they want to succeed with armor, weaponry and protection. One particular Lord, Remus Darwon, is known to lavishly supply his chosen champion with enchanted raiments and arms... and he is currently backing our man's first opponent, Thrask Tefon. We need to gain favor here and force will not win this day... though subterfuge might. I do not know exactly how you will do it. But I have arranged for one of you to infiltrate the noble circles as a guest prince or princess from a foreign land. While in their circles you must convince Darwin to switch sides and back Axebearer in this coming fight. Befriend the Lord, plant evidence if treachery, convince him of Axebearer strength, whatever you must do, do it. I would highly recommend you only take this mission if you're as skilled with your tongue as you are your blade.
