Rumor Mill

By the Light! Did you see all those guards marching into the Dwarven District with those armoured gnomes? Must've been some kinda crackdown, they carried away some Dwarf in chains and when I went to look they had barricaded some house entirely!

I tell you, that bar in the Dwarven District, what's its name... Right, the Shady Lady: stay out of it! It's filled with every kind of crooks and ruffians! Just to other night I've seen a guy dragged out that pub and thrown down in the canals!

"Did you hear about that Navy Commander who supposedly can make a woman quiver in carnal delights at very sight?"

"No I didn't. Now pay your tab, Legraine."

Did you hear that Lord Dawnweaver's wife finally had her birth? By all accounts, a pair of healthy boys. Aye, and she's alive, too. You wouldn't have thought such a good birth from a woman of her age, but eh, seems the ancestors have blessed Dawnweaver this time.

They've called one after the woman's brother, though. The Alteracian, Dorian. I wonder what they were thinking. The other's a fine Arathorian name at least, Eletheran. I suppose time will tell.

"Aye, I 'ad heard! On te topic o' kids, I was told tha' the Shar's youngest is now livin' wit' 'er Pa on 'is Farmstead. Wit' all te other sprogs running around o' expected soon, I can almost 'ear te high pitched "Ah-hoooms!"

Rumour has it... The three Runestones in Quel'Thalas have recently been desecrated... One of the Runewardens has been found cleaved in half... Such a mess... People claim to have heard shouting of a new dawn emitting from the forests of Eversong... My Belore... How far our lands have fallen.

Did you hear? The shine of Dath'Remar has been frozen solid! At this time of year? Weird! Don't you think..?"

There has been talk about slain elfes near one of the rune stones in a nearby tower, the body was said to be mutilated.. who would do such a thing..

Did you hear? There's a big hoohah over at the Justice Ministry.. Apparently a judge went into Duskwood and never came back! That witch problem must be getting bad!

"'ere I saw a man get carried to the abbey last night, 'e was bleeding bad"
"Aye?"
"Aye, two men in dark armour and their faces covered"
"To do with that undead business?"
"Who knows?"

"Did ya hear that some Lord or Baron or whatever he is bought that mine to the south?"
"Yeah, some dark skinned feller' hired mah' brother to restore it."

Bloody Copperguts! They get a deed for OUR, and I mean OUR mine and they kick us out, just like that! They even renamed it from 'Frazzlecraz Motherlode' to 'Frazl's Frontier'! Just because there's a campaign going on doesn't mean they have to close the place and strip it clean of our stuff! 'The Alliance won't try to conquer it this way' they say. Idiots! They'll just walk in and take all the Kaja'mite anyway! Bah, I just hope that they re-open soon, and the new foremen and miners they are looking for will be good to work with.

You hear about those eight people going missing? One of them that Hearth girl? Killed, and then had her body stolen.. Sheesh, Is the Scouge returnin' or something?

Saw a bunch of those Cultists walkin' around with corpses. Y'know usually I wouldn't take a second glance, but that.. Rasonal was with them, Sulthar to. Even the shadowpope was there! ..What they doin' some sort of private ritual? Well, whatever it is. Sure glad were on the same team.

"I heard those Theramore lads of the navy be gettin' to guard in the city and the docks now, together with the regiment. Not sure wha' to think of it... it be an odd bunch."

Rumour has it that the services of Coris Finrick still stand smugly outside the Cathedral Square in her shop. Word goes it's all from exotic items to dreams come true. Perhaps it's worth to find this odd woman?

Rumour has it that some Sunwalker is roaming around Horde encampments seeking other Tauren. I heard him talk about a Union based in Mulgore for all Tauren to join.

So a while ago, some baldy came to two of our esteemed Gearholders and went ranting on about some demon he'd summoned. Inside this very inn! And instead of punish him, the Gearholder simply told him to take care of the wounded! I say, the government is up to some erratic things these days!

So Wubbly told me some Gearholder ordered a bunch of baldheads to summon a demon! Then shouted on about how they should hide the evidence. Evidence suggests they are trying to overthrow the High Tinker!

A cult of bald-headed gnomes, headed by a Gearholder, summoned Kil'jaeden! I saw it with my own eyes! With his fiery fury, he ordered them to murder the High Tinker and hide his body! I need a drink...

Gnomes are weird, aye.

I tell you, there are people going to the harbour every night, you know, with black hoods and capes and such, all sneaky, I've seen them a lot of times... They always come back with sacks and crates, I mean, kinda suspicious, isn't it?

What's with all these new posters around Stormwind, have you seen who has been putting them up?

Not seen a thing nuh-uh, what are they about?

They promote this messenger service, runs with the Blades. You know .. the lot of mercenaries back in Old town?

Messenger service huh, I think I might be able to make use of it. Maybe check out what this deal is all about.

Rumour has it that someone called 'Kerrich Greyhaunt' and 'Daralis Redway' were up at the Greymane Ball recently, making tricks like sword-swallowing and fire-eating. Seems they were pretty good too!

Redway.. Redway.. ain't that the local smithy?

Ey, any of you lot seen them crazy lot runnin' 'round town screaming at the top of their lungs 'bout how the Light is false and turns ya' into a slave?

Aye, they spoke of the Defiler, a Dark Realm... how the realm had eyes.. how knowledge and prosperity could be found in the realm, away from the shackles of dogama... sinister stuff!"

Them Anethionean's didn't kill 'em on sight?"

Nah...

By the Light...
