The Chant

The demonically influenced goblinoids have come to an abrupt end; no longer do their emissaries come to the Hive, nor do they push outward to take the Undersigil for themselves. Some muse that they must have come to an end typical of their kind; hunted down and exterminated by a group of mighty adventurers. Others believe that their unbridled ambitions drew the ire of the Lady. Either way, word of the burgeoning new tribe gradually fades from common chant into a footnote of history.

The Chant
As the chant goes, a rumor concerning a prophetic while wolf, that has taken refuge in Sigil after having escaped a circus in The City of Brass, is currently circulating the bazaar.
Its foretelling powers are supposedly activated by rubbing its paw with a piece of platinum or gemstone.

The Chant

A few days after an incident on her prime world, with the advise of a few adventurers, Lilian Delacroix joins the ranks of the Free League. While spoken to by a few members of other factions, to include the Dustmen, Lilian had found her life of politics tiresome and preferred to turn to a life of commerce. It is said she is doing well for herself now. Apparently, two men by the name of Ross and Lenny are working for her as hired muscle.

The Chant

The hags Salena and Alena were arrested under eleven charges of kidnapping, several counts of murder, domination, and a myriad of other charges. In addition, ten of the hags' victims testified against them.

The trial is quick with few public witnesses and the hags are now in the custody of the Mercykillers. A SIGIS journalist that documented the case mentioned the hag Salena screamed that their fallen sister would one day be avenged.

The Chant

The Dead Shadow Genies' shop is slowly expanding. From enchantments to varioues potion brews and magical wands to rare items found out in the Planes from the travel of the Dead.

Chant has it this dead genie is one of those bringing bodies back to the Mortuary. Mabye you're one of those lucky sods who still think you're alive? But, the 'verse is not a kind place, and many have ended up in the Deadbook. It's said the dead genie sells items left behind by those unlucky cutters whos destiny had come to an end. Is that why the items to this Dead are all Dead too?


The Dark

There's some chant floating the streets of Sigil resently about the Dead Genies' "Mysteries". It's whispered about how the dead genie is a shadow broker, an information broker. How he does get his hand on this dark is a mystery. However, some speculate the dead genie has some strange connection to the shadows, and as the saying is, can't keep no secrets when there's portals all around you, and even more shadows.

The Chant

A group of strange beholders led by a Hive Mother began making their way through the wards while magically charming hapless Sigilians in what they described as a 'protest'. Allegedly, this protest was against the unjust arrest and jailing of one of the Hive Mother's children, a beholder by the name of Sklorshippl. It's said they picked up voluntary protestors from the ranks of the Chaosmen, Sensates and Signers before being confronted by a group of Hardheads.

The Hardheads claimed that the beholder they were protesting on behalf of did not exist, but this didn't seem to dissuade the beholders. Reluctant to fight charmed sigilians, the Hardheads were aided by Planeswalkers on the scene, who quickly incapacitated the protestors with their magical abilities. The beholders grew violent and were quickly slain. The red-tinted fist of Sigilian law rules the cycle.

The Dark

During the incident, the Hive Mother claimed that it was a Signer, and that by magically charming Sigilians it was "Exercising a factional right to imagine people following them". Wary eyes are drawn towards the Sign of One, openly wondering how many of its members share this sort of sentiment.

The Darkest Dark

After the incident, a foolish Hardhead has let slip that a beholder named Sklorshippl does seem to be held at the Barracks. With no record of its arrest or arrival, the Harmonium is at something of a loss on what to do. At this news, the flames of dissidence are being stoked...mainly in bashers who were already quite dissident.

The Chant

A group of Planewalkers were drafted into a business arrangement earlier this cycle by a man seeking scouts to travel on an expedition through an unknown portal which recently appeared in the Bazaar. After some hours they returned; the original patron missing and his bodyguard dying in an altercation soon after.

The Dark

The portal in question led those involved to an isolated place with numerous people and a plague of Undead. The battle that took place saw the end of the restless dead's attacks on the local populace, though not everything ended on such a high note...

The Darkest Dark

Those involved directly can testify to the lopsided nature of the expedition; hardly a thing seemed to go right and some manner of labyrinthine plot involving the townsfolk and the Undead made things more complicated. In addition to this, the patron that commissioned the expedition in the first place is somehow responsible for all of this.

((Further information may be gleaned from one of the involved parties; several of them are known to frequent the Bazaar and the Metal Cup.))

The Chant

It is sayed, that in absense of Radiant dragon Junathoraxus, novice adventurers are still welcome to come and ask for help the one, who takes care of local matters in dragon's absence. All they need to do is come to Mercuria through portal near Civic Festhall, pass the gatehouse, where righteous angels are still keeping a shrine to celestial Hebdomad and seek that person. Of course those of impure heart or lower-planar discent will not even be allowed to the doorsteps, while those, who's causes are good and who's life is guided by the virtue, who despises sins may find assistance.

The Chant

Word has it that on the borders of the Clerk's Ward and Bazaar someone has been stirring the peoples up, spreading the news of some berk trying to steal swords from an Auction! Heard they were pretty valuable n' even angelic! And some lemon castin' divine spells upsetting the local fiendish sort, even almost come to blows between all the chaos this cycle!

"This wouldn't happen if the Harmonium were still in the Bazaar!" Cried quite a few voices in their discussions.

The Dark

"Oi heard tha' Knight o' the Post Ran away! No one got 'em! Wot is this.. tha Hive?!"

"Oh but the Lemon was talked down pretty easily. Poor thing needs a tout! Lucky no one bobbed her off the street!"
