A new inn has reputedly been built on one of the less travelled routes, though there don’t appear to be any firsthand accounts of anyone having visited the inn, though there are some second-hand accounts of people having seen it.

A settlement has recently lost a number of valuable items when parts of many of the buildings suddenly moved off of their own accord and took the valuables.

An Oorgolian envoy has been turning up in a number of different settlements, apparently looking for a specific individual, but they seem to be uncertain as to just who that person is or what they look like. The envoy even seems to struggle with knowing the person’s name, and it’s said that they are seeking help in identifying their quarry.
Explorers of a nearby ruin have suddenly stopped returning after exploring it, even though they always have done so before.
