Grisly Discovery at Khazeet's
Late last night, the murdered body of a human woman was discovered packed inside an ale keg at the popular Merchant Ward tavern, Khazeet's. Harmonium and other investigators on the scene did not reveal cause of death or motive.
"It's disturbing to know I was that close to a corpse for goodness knows how long," stated Minerva, well-known Indep merchant and Treasurer of the Sigil Arcane Society. "I only hope whoever did this to the poor girl gets what's coming to them."
An anonymous source listed the victim as Angelae, a high-ranking member of the Society of Sensation. Requests to the Sensates for comment were rejected.
The Thrush Strikes Again!
The mysterious thief known only as Thrush has reportedly been back at it, this time stealing close to twenty thousand jink from the townhouse of a Taker namer in the Lady's Ward.
"The bast'ud cut a hole in mah roof an' cleaned out mah attic!" were the words of Gillim Breadwater, Chief of Taxation for the southern Hive Ward. "Ain't this the sort o' thang that goes on in slums? The darn Lobstahs need tah be doin' their job, I say."
New Horrors in Undersigil?
Sources claim to have found two unidentified crucified bodies in part of the drainage system of Undersigil. A squad of investigating Harmonium constables were able to find nothing, however.
As always, the staff at S.I.G.I.S. recommends that all cagers avoid Undersigil.

Pervert on the Loose!
According to sources, upwards of fifty pairs of panties have been stolen from the rooms of the fine ladies of the Tilted House in the Lady's Ward. No further evidence is forthcoming, as the Ladies themselves refuse comment and the Harmonium does not consider this worth investigation.
Sensate Soul-Slayer
That's right, S.I.G.I.S. as usual is first on the scene, reporting of a quadruple-murder discovered outside the Civic Festhall and providing a sensational nickname for the heinous killer, who from this point forward will be referred to as the Sensate Soul-Slayer, or Triple-S. Bystanders report Harmonium, Guvner, and several planewalkers investigating. When asked for further details, Society of Sensation spokeswoman Fall-From-Grace stated:
"We need to deal with this tragic loss, to allow the friends and loved ones of the deceased closure. Assuming a vendetta against our faction is premature, and we have full confidence in the Harmonium and Fraternity of Order's ability to bring the foul perpetrators to justice."
Bystanders report those investigating the murder to speak of missing souls, and things in common with the previously reported death at Khazeet's, suggesting a connection between the five deaths. As usual, the Harmonium declined comment.
