ILITHI ADAN'F AND DIRGE CABALISTS EXPAND THEIR TERRITORIES Sentinel Captain Cierzen made an appearance to hear of an attack south of Shard, according to reports from Mazrian Daemondred-Rudeone. Mazrian and Ayrell informed the Captain of Adan’f elder sorcerers and blademasters who had crossed the path leading to the Whistling Wood. The Adan’f referred to the folks gathered as intruders, claimed the woods belonged to them, and threatened the others in the area to leave. The tone of the interaction shifted quickly to violent in nature. Luckily, the Adan’f were held back from Shard’s gates on Ilithi’s southern road once they proved aggressive towards citizens. It is unknown whether the wandering Adan’f simply wanted to keep people away from the woods or if they were going to attempt to cross over the bridge and move into the city. The Adan’f have since retreated back into the Whistling Wood, where brave adventurers may hunt down these sorcerers and blademasters if they dare. The mages and warriors who were found there previously now reside only in the northern half of the forest, while the blademasters roam near the southeastern corner, and the sorcerers are in the southwestern corner. Some mixture of the two can be found in the middle south. Stay vigilant, as these two new types of Adan’f are much tougher than their predecessors. In fact, they are considered some of the most dangerous adversaries that adventurers regularly encounter. I have also been notified of a new scout report from Dirge. The cabalists within the Arthelun ruins have cleared up some debris, and their efforts have exposed a narrow crevice into a fallen building! Guardsmen and warders were dispatched by the Estate Holder Council to secure the area, and their scouts are urgently requesting assistance in preventing further advancement of the cabalists into this zone. Both areas have been described as extremely dangerous and should be explored with caution and in the company of experienced combatants. Stay safe Elanthia!
