Dragonrise, Part 2

### 19th - 24th of Bloom

*In the city of Vrall, a crier comes out onto the street: "Hear y'all, hear y'all, here in the forest of Fel, the Ironwood compact has slain two great dragons. One Blue, all lightning and frost, the other Green, a horrible corruptor that bent the spirits of mortal folk. They held prisoner a pack of wolves, much to the dissatisfaction of the Barbarbian Baroness Bea'savak! The wolves were set to Fel work in that Fel wood, digging into the very earth to uncover the buried bones of yet another Wyrm, who's services were desired by the villanous Xovreme! Danger, Danger lurks in those dark woods beyond the inkwells: But the gods have granted us the compact of Iron to protect ourselves."*

*Across the street, a dwarf with white hair and golden eyes listens appraisingly.*

This is a **renown roll week**. Make sure to take a positive renown roll for each medium or large building which you operate in a city, and a negative roll for each community in which you have neither a statue or monument.

**Cultivation Event:** Mae'ra blesses the world with bright clear light and temperate warmth. Increment the size of all plants by 1; does not count against the number of times each plant can grow in a week.

**Social Event** – On the 22nd, the New Tidelighters will celebrate First Hunt, (known to many from more agricultural communities as Sower's Break), a festival of thanks for the safe return of the growing earth. They are specifically holding the event in the Truewood, and inviting mousefolk to attend. Outsiders require 7 NT or Kiore renown to attend. At the event, there will be a ceremonial hunt (the boar population in the Truewood has gotten a bit too high), a feast, and a night full of songs. This is also a traditional event for young dragonborn to meet other young dragonborn outside of their clan, though it's not yet clear what that will mean in this context.

**Xen Vayer -** wants timeweft materials. The more precious and the more biological, the more cash she can pay for them. A timeweft prisoner would be optimal.

**Dragonfall Lodge:** The dragonborn are too busy enjoying First Hunt to request anything. Itinerant pilgrims are less interested in the ceremony, and have instead been focusing much of their attention on the Torch itself. Many come, placing their hands into the flame. A few have visions, but they all have pain. These folk will happily pay a silver for a casting of cure wounds.

**Council Docket:** The council is voting on Ranag's purchase of the Savannah. Noone has yet voiced opposition.

**Market News -** The waters have steadied, allowing travel and trade to return in full force.

**War News -** Tensions flare on Ithmaul after Vayerstown launches a series of raids. Their targets are unusual, striking both sides in locations with little military importance: A derelict port off of Emperiora, a farming village in the Northeast of Vidhar, and a small museum on the outskirts of Windhome.

**Weather:** Mother Dalxar says that Mae'ra is being particularly friendly today, and that you, yes you, specifically, should be thankful. Bright and sunny but with a temperate breeze; perfect weather for a picnic, or to hunt some vampires.
