Harmonium Patrols are on the alert tonight after hundreds of Xaositects started assembling in the Lower Ward, outside the Great Foundry. There is an atmosphere of great excitement amongst those massed there, but all are tight-lipped about what is actually happening. Inquiries into the nature of the gathering are generally met with a giggle. Aerioth, a spokesperson for the Godsmen was able to confirm that the Believers in the Source have received an extremely large but undisclosable sum of money from the Xaositects for a "special project".
So far, the assembly has been peaceful, but Harmonium patrols remain on standby to deal with any possible trouble. "The problem with Xaosmen is that you never know what to expect," Patrol Leader Shorrek told us.
The "project" is thought to be part of the Xaositect's traditional celebration of the New Cycle. As always, the exact nature of the project remains a closely guarded secret. Last year, Xaositects mages 'painted' the City Barracks with illusions to give the impression the Harmoniums' Headquarters were built of chaos-stuff from Limbo. Factol Sarin was not amused.
