Bewildering Encounters on Trade Routes,
Guards Move to Quell Fear
Posted by Rita radcliffe 12/04/18
The Town Cryer brings you this special report.
Trade Ministers across the realm are advising those running trade order to take extra precautions as a new threat has emerged. Trade runners are reporting strange encounters with impish type creatures possessing a nasty thirst for blood and two menacing cleavers. According to one Royal Guard official the origins of these creatures are unknown to the guard, but they assure the proper steps are being taken to deal with the problem. The Guard advises those who encounter icy creatures outside their normal habitats should take that as a warning these new threats are abound.
The League of Rangers is also cautioning adventurers these icy creatures are known to attract a previously unknown species of Drake that can be most deadly. Upon further research the Town Cryer has learned these creatures are the minions of a beast called Krampus.
The Town Cryer has reached out to several Britannians who claim to have knowledge of the beast's origins, however the accounts are varied and murky at best. Dr. Cat of the Cat's Lair in Britain claims Krampus and its minions are the result of a goat long forgotten in the sewers. Janna the Druid of Yew recounted the story of a wild satyr who attacked a band of marauders who desecrated a birch grove. Even more bizarre is the tale from Finn of Vesper who claims to have shared a drink of brandy with Krampus who then went on to punish a merchant who was terrible to the poor of Vesper.
Whatever the history of this creature one thing is clear - this festival season will not soon be forgotten.
In other news, the Royal Britannian Astronomer's Society has made no comment on peculiar celestial observations and assures the public there is no threat to the realm.
