So, I expect this to be a long-term offering.Word from the ArchDuke of Gaul...
Posted June 10, 2021
Word spreads through the populace and is confirmed by heralds. The following formal notice is posted in the public square.
REWARD REWARD REWARD
By Order of ArchDuke Gaul
Brave Adventurers needed, Knights or Gentry alike, willing to face
the terrors of a red dragon which has taken interest in the populace
of Gaul and demanded the sacrifice of maidens from among our
number each new moon.
Reward offered for any willing to face the Dragon in its lair,
leading to the dragon's death or to the cessation of its threats
against the city and our fair populace. All those so brave
as to stand against such a foe and prevail will also
be considered for knighthood and land grants from the Throne. The
proprietor, Hyde, has offered the Tavern as the site for planning
discussions. Sir Albrecht will provide the location of the dragon's
lair to any who require it.
Signed,
Gaul
* A cracked wax seal of the Gaul crest crumbles on the notice *
* Anyone who wants to propose an action be taken when the Dragon comes to claim its first maiden on July 1st can propose it in the EVENT: The Coming of Scatha thread, and all ideas will be resolved there together.
* Anyone who wants to plan an expedition to deal with Scatha should do so normally in the Tavern thread and on the normal clock.
* Anyone who wants to make a new PC for the game who is inspired by the opportunity to face a dragon for immense reward is encouraged to do so! They can all arrive in town by the current timeline (the word went out on June 10th backdated, so they're fine arriving with a caravan on July 15th, the current date.
