Attacks on The East Coast Road

Post by Lamaenor »

A finely-dressed herald saunters down Money Walk to the central plaza of Devardec. He is flanked on either side by two of Devardec's palace guard in ceremonial armor.

The herald stops in the middle of the square and licks his lips before raising his trumpet. He blasts an elaborate fanfare on it before tucking it under his arm and unrolling a scroll stamped with the seal of the Office of the Chancellor. This catches the attention of most in the square - others continue about their business. Satisfied that he has caught as much attention as he is able, he reads the following in a sing-song voice:
"Hear ye! Hear ye!

Citizens of Devardec and honored travelers!

The office of the Chancellery does hereby announce a reward in the amount of twenty-thousand gold coins to any who have information on the existence or whereabouts of the brigands who carried out the attack on the East Coast Road.

Furthermore, an additional reward in the sum of twenty-thousand gold is hereby offered to any who have information on the appended sigil.

Finally, the merchant who was attacked is hereby officially summoned to the office of the Chancellery to discuss recompense for his losses.

Citizens and travelers are hereby advised that - while they may rest assured that patrols have been increased - extra precautions are advised while traveling the East Coast Road. Officially sanctioned merchant caravans (including those conducting Faire business) may request an escort from the city guards. The city takes no liability for any losses incurred due to scheduling conflicts this may create.

Rest assured that your city is working tirelessly for you, and that the source of these attacks will be dealt with swiftly and judiciously."

The herald then attaches the scroll to the message board and attaches a tracing of the strange emblem which appeared after the attacks: A hammer resting on a pile of gold.
