Katlinel of the Foe successfully penetrated our city a third time Sunday, backed up by Lord Castro and  several other bully-boys of the Light.

Kyrisis and Dedd, aided by several of the Neriak guard, gave chase, and though they beat back Lord Castro's forces repeatedly, were not able to apprehend Katlinel as she fled the city.

Inside Neriak, Jaelithe, a mysterious ambassador from the hitherto unknown city of Marea, beneath the Timorous Deep, met with the Lady Kyrisis.  Jaelithe said that she represented the Empress Antonius Helena Bayle of the 23rd Dynasty of the Combine Empire.  A curious mask around her neck, not unlike the gnomic aqualung or "rebreather" lent credence to her tale, as did her rich gifts to Queen Cristos Thex.

She said she knew that the Queen's Seers had uncovered powerful magic in "The City of the Fallen" and was willing to trade for it.  "There is much that we could teach you,"she said.  Kyrisis hedged, unwilling to trust this mysterious woman.  The ambassador thus gifted her with a prophesy from the Oracle of Marea -- "The City of the Free shall not fall so long as the Daughter of the Empire dwelleth there".

Skulduggery in Freeport
=======================
NEXT EVENT -- Sunday August 13, 3pm Eastern
              Rally in the East Commons, Nek Zone

At last the time has come for us to strike against our greatest foe of all!  The Temple of Marr in Freeport has long been a bright thorn in the side of the Dark - its light has burned brightly, forcing the Dark Races to cower in their cities, leaving the fertile plains of the Commons largely in the hands of the Humans and their Pale Elf friends.

Powerful magics recovered in Befallen will be used against this bastion of Light -- and it will be used not by us, but by those power-greedy fools, the humans
themselves!

Contact has already been made with senior wizards at the Arcane Sciences, who would use our power for their own personal gain, unthinkingly unleashing on their city the evil that once destroyed Befallen.

But there are many in the city who would oppose us - and some who may yet prevent us.

Rally to our banner!  Strike a blow against the very Light itself!  Aid us in our plot to destroy this city once and for all.
