<center>Clainin Murdered!</center>

Several weeks ago, the Royal Mage Clainin awoke from his years-long coma - only to be beset upon by one of the healers charged with his care. Fortunately, the traitorous elvin woman was fought off by another healer loyal to his patient, and Clainin survived the assassination attempt. Lord Casca had the Royal Mage whisked away to an unknown location for his protection while he recovered further.

Last week, rumors ran rampant about an announcement by Lord Casca to be held at Empath Abbey. Our Liege did indeed speak to the citizens there, and personally led them on a quest to end the Shadowlord invasions of the cities. In the depths of Hythloth, a large crimson crystal pulsing with mystical energies was located and then destroyed by Lord Casca. Several people left with souvenirs of this day, as tiny crystal fragments pelted most of those assembled.

Once the party had returned to the Abbey, Lord Casca proclaimed that he was victorious in ending the crimson dragon threat, and that the war would be won readily. Our Liege disappeared, however, when a crimson dragon chose that moment to make itself known by taunting the crowd.

Fortunately for Britannia, an apparently rival species of platinum-hued dragon also chose that moment to reveal itself and challenge the crimson's boastful nature. After trading barbs, both dragons abruptly vanished into thin air.

This brings us to last night; a source that shall remain nameless had infiltrated the Shadowlord faction ranks and witnessed shocking events that took place in Felucca. Apparently, the Shadowlords sent the mysterious Andrew and the believed-to-be-dead Melissa to meet with their faction at their base in the Yew Crypts.

A moongate within the base led to an underground chamber where Melissa announced that they would be dispensing powerful weaponry to lay siege to a location in Trinsic, their ultimate goal being the assassination of Clainin. The Shadowlord followers descended upon the Trinsic Training Hall, slaughtering any paladins brave enough to defend their city.

The True Britannians also strove to fight back the Shadowlord army, and for a while it looked like the tide would turn in their favor. Strangely, Clainin stood on the second floor of the Training Hall seemingly dazed and somewhat confused, unable to even speak properly. Andrew ordered that he be softened up for Melissa, as she would strike the killing blow.

Clainin fought back with unusual magics, unfortunately, they were insufficient to deter his attackers. Melissa appeared behind the Royal Mage and proceeded to murder him, the killing blow sent out a concussion wave which damaged the Training Hall.
 
 
 
<img src="http://uo.stratics.com/newspics/greatlakes/C&Devent3.jpg" align=right alt="Melissa assasinates Clainin">Royal Mage Clainin is dead; Melissa and Andrew have crawled back under their rocks. For every step forward that Britannia appears to take against the despicable Shadowlords, we are dealt a morale crippling blow.

I spoke with several citizens regarding recent events, and they all gave a similarly dim view of the King Pro-tempore Administration's actions of late. One man, who was present for the shattering of the crimson crystal, had this to say, "That wily elf dinna seem a'all surprised by the big red crystal, as if'un he placed it there himself... A mite suspicious if'un ye be ask'n me!"

Conspiracy theories have ran rampant since the ascension of Lord Casca to the throne, yet until there is evidence to corroborate even the least improbable conjecture I shall refrain from giving then any copy space here. However, one high-ranking High Council Official speaking on the promise of anonymity had this to say, "What in the Abyss was Casca thinking, sending a recovering man to the tender mercies of Felucca? Is he mad?"

The crimson dragon threat may be gone for now my friends, but Britannia has lost a hero to the Shadowlord's insane quest for chaos and dominion. This war is far from over, and I fear we may face darker times ahead. Keep your blades sharp and your reagents stocked!

Yet, I ask myself, in a world where magic flows as readily as water, and resurrection is commonplace... Is anyone ever truly dead?
