On a different topic I informed Jendayi about Saerhaice sendings about using the beholders eye while doing a bit of diplomacy. Perhaps we have some answers whats going off over there before long.

Pilotess said they asked the Talonite about diseases not spreading a plague. You are aware Saerhice is a druid right and some use poison and disease, They could be planning to use it on beholders.
I'll speak with the priestess myself since I know you'll twist what is said to use in your vendetta

It seems you attempt to parly have failed Swift. Don't you think its about time we beat the crap out of these elfs who refuse to respect our King and Queen and force one of those lovely collars on them to make pay for our dead friends, well my dead friends at least?
Or are you only ever going be a pleb?
Adelaide
-
Your quest for vengeance is not mine
Handle this yourself since you are intent on punishing them above what the law allows
Dominic
-
Pleb then.
Adelaide
-
Your childish insults do you no credit.
Even Florent could see you were mishandling this out of vengeance.
Dominic
-
And half the city knows your afraid of the elfs, it's rather quite pathetic. Once I figure out how to bring them down without you, I will be dueling you for your cloak.
To think I acturly use to look up to you.

So I got into a fight with Saerhaice in the Hullack. It's looking like he can teleport and summon dire spiders and webs while in the Hullack.
Made him bleed at least through.

@knockknock said in Announcement: Cormanthor:
[Posted prominently on the bridge at the mouth of the Hullack...]
The Elven Fellowship claim the forest known as the Hullack as restored CORMANTHOR.
Cormanthor will thrive under ancient Elven charter. In harmony with Balance and stark resistance to the vices cultivated by Man.
The inaction of the City of Man and its environment which gave rise to harrowing darkness has not gone unnoticed. Their hands are not clean in the rise and fall of the Hive. No longer will their touch be tolerated in the depths of new Cormanthor.
Here, the laws of Man mean nothing.
Here, the authority of Man means nothing.
CORONAL Saeharice Chamaranthe shall preside. The Fellowship will form a Council beneath. And their watchmen will have eight eyes on any who travel the woodland.
The gifts to govern have been blessed unto the Fellowship by a grateful host of Spirits.
It was beneath their heel the greatest threat to this realm was crushed. The same dogged zeal will be extended to any who break their customs.
The laws of Cormanthor will soon be made plain.
Tolerance will be inexistent, consequences swift.
Coronal Saeharice Chamaranthe,
of Cormanthor.Our interest in the Fellowship is renewed. While their role in druidic circles was no great concern, they now seek to claim that which is already in our right and so their arrogance cannot be ignored.
This notice borderlines on the following offence:
- Possession and redistribution of contraband, in this case, propaganda that targets the Arabellan political system and seeks to undermine Arabellan law and control of the Hullack.
Dilettante Swift, is the lawful bounty still active, or was it paid in full? As in, do we have a direct means of pursuing this moon-touched fool, or do we need to go about this a different way?
-
The bounty is still active.

The notices are being refreshed at the outskirts of the Hullack. Bloodhound Elrinde was with me when I took one down - her reaction was, interesting, perhaps the most emotion I have seen from her. I plan to ask her more of what this announcement means and what can be used to counter it, although if you have the time you should also approach her. This requires a gentle touch, I think.
My initial idea, mentioned to one of the plebs before they took off their cloaks, was to learn the elf druid's weakness and lure them out of their grove, with bait for their pride such as elven lore or artefacts, or if you wish to enrage them, by targeting spiders. Such a trap would require assistance, however, given recent departures.
That the bounty is still active helps us take a direct role, if needed. But also promote it to adventurers, many are greedy for coin and will do the work for us without us having to bloody our hands.
On another note, the other offence which we could cite is around religious blasphemy - their promotion of 'Araushnee' and other spirits is cause for concern.

Whilst it may prove unpopular I have sent Saerhaice the following
@v-rage said in Letter: Saerhaice:
Saerhaice
I am willing to see the bounty on you removed if you perform some service for the city, All of them benefit you in some way as well.
You may either capture and deliver Marchetti, Kold or Enlil to the Crown Guard barracks to be punished for leaving undead on the roads.
Alternatively you could deliver Arill instead, He foolishly plundered an elven tomb in the Hullack and fled, bringing angry spirits towards the city.
Dominic
His main crime was kidnapping Amaire, and since then he has performed a service in destroying the Abberant temple in the Helmlands
If he brings us one of these criminals I believe he has earned his way out of his past crimes
Dominic

The only problem I have is that they continue to propogate sedition and seccession in their attempt to carve out a corner of the Hullack. See the attached notices, which I realise you may not be able to read given they are in Elven script.
The Crown still has an active interest in the Hullack yet it is difficult to grasp a hold there. Were they to acknowledge themselves as a city-state, part of the greater Kingdom, this may be acceptable. Is there a way around this, similar to our arrangements with the Bishopric and Duchy?
-
The bounty is removed
Unfortunately I cannot speak Elven, You can of course negioate with the elves on their posters though I doubt they actually control the Hullack, Being a great druid means he stewards part of it nothing more.
I know he has no love for the necromancers so having the fellowship cause them problems benefits us
Dominic
