Deoch 14, Spring

Invention Offers Relief

Mileth - Cian, Alchemist of Mileth, has designed an unusual device to provide relief to beleaguered aislings. After 14 Deochs of experimenting with rotten foods from the Mileth crypt, Cian noticed that aislings have a tendency to hold their nose when they enter his shop. One blunt customer explained the trouble, "Gods man, ye reek!"

After carefully pondering the dilemma (completely dismissing the suggestion that he take a bath), Cian has developed a device that clamps firmly over the nose, eliminating any olfactory discomfort while leaving the hands free for other tasks. Cian hopes to target sales of the new device to aislings who commonly hunt in the crypts, the sewers, and especially House Macabre.

Carnaugh's Address

Aislings, Carnaugh, Layla, Rhakal and other Deoch priests have had a discussion over the recent events in the Deoch fellowship. They afraid Deoch may fall to the hands of several priests who wipe the board clean of all posts, claim they have power, and banish Aislings from the temple. This is Carnaugh's address to all Deoch members, allies and all other Aislings concerning the "high priest" debate.

My fellow priests and priestess' of Deoch, it has come to my attention the matter over the hierarchy of our fellowship. We seem to be at our wits end over this whole matter of "High Priests." In my opinion, no one priest should hold this title. Though others would disagree, I myself will call no one by this name. I have seen other fellowships torn apart because of this high priest deal, I do not wish to see ours share the same fate.

So I must ask that we priests and priestess' meet to further discuss this trifling matter. I suggest, though negotiable, that we meet eight hours before the mass of Cail week ((One hour before the mass of Saturday 11pm Eastern Standard Time)) and discuss this matter and put an end to this strife.

For those who cannot attend, I will record all that is discussed in a journal and will make it available to you upon request.

Sincerely,
Carnaugh

Flames rage through Undine Forest

Undine - Fires are currently raging throughout the forests in Undine, leaving nothing but a warpath behind. Several Aislings and Mundanes have been severely injured by the fires, which are heading toward the many homes in Undine.

A group of twelve Mundanes and twelve Aislings have banded together to build a small canal in front of the fire, before it reaches the more rural areas. All Aislings and Mundanes are welcome to come help, as much help is needed. The fire's cause is unknown, leading many to believe it was set by the Orc army, ordered by King Bruce. The rebels of Undine refused to comment as they shoveled dirt to make the canal before the fires reach town.

I also tried to contact King Bruce of Loures. However, his kinsmen directed me out of his chamber.

Monks Prepare For Training

Both Aisling and Mundane monks are preparing themselves for extreme training from the monastery, set to open very soon. Monks will soon learn new skills and earn special belts as they advance in the program.

I've spoken to several Aisling monks about how excited they are over the monastery. A mid insighted monk named Mystique, seemed very happy about the monastery. "I hope we get a new kick!," "and maybe a new punch or two!", she exclamated.

Nuadh Toiseach Leads Exploration

Within the upcoming week, the guild Nuadh Toiseach will lead an exploration team to the bottom floor of Mileth Crypt. The team will be lead by Matakku, Harmonie, and I (Callesto). The bottom floor of the crypt contains a statue of a headless draco.

All Aislings who would like to come explore with us are welcome to come. ((It will be this Saturday at 8pm Eastern, 5pm pacific)) Meet outside the Mileth Crypt, and bring plenty of red potions, and a scroll if possible. Please be aware this is a dangerous exploration, and only Aislings with 24 or so insights can make it down there. We highly request priests come, to help us make sure the Aislings who come are kept safe.

Kerani's Personal Portraits

Aisling Kerani is an excellent artist, and has won an award for her "No Fear" work, which is on display in the Loures Library. Kerani now makes personal portraits of Aislings in her spare time for a small fee. All Aislings who would like a portrait of themselves may write Kerani directly. She also offers examples of her work to those who are doubtful of her skill.
