RUMOR: Oren Nillu Assaulted

Word spreads like wildfire that earlier today, Duke Oren Nillu's carriage was assaulted on its way back to Nillu's Lode. While some claim it was the work of rogue brigands, others vow the assailants kept vanishing and reappearing at will, others that they chanted songs in strange tongues, but mostly the rumors seem to assure it was the work of mages.

No official word has been issued from Glittering Bear -- Baron Thain Nillu's home and location where the House Duke is currently staying -- yet whispers already preach of the due punishment befalling the old man for his acceptance of the Shadow into the fold of his House.
