=== [[Town Crier]] Rumors ===
== Game Changes ==
''Free Rumors'':
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Town Crier tells you, "Tou-tou is entirely enveloped in Shadow!"<br>
:Town Crier tells you, "I guess there will be "Shadow Diving" after all..."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Town Crier tells you, "I've heard rumors of life-attuned Shadowfire Wands being available."<Br>
:Town Crier tells you, "Good timing, I guess.  There are plenty more shadows around to use it on..."</font><br>
 
''Pyreal Rumors:''
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Town Crier tells you, "I've seen several Mhoire Undead sporting helms that were previously too flammable to be prominently displayed."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Town Crier tells you, "News! The corruption of the Hopeslayer's Shadows has entirely enveloped the town of Tou-tou!"<Br>
:Town Crier tells you, "Both Asheron and Isin Dule have been sighted in the outskirts of the ravaged area."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Town Crier tells you, "Access to the Derethian Combat Arena has both diversified and grown.  As I personally don't engage in combat with other Isparians, you'll have to seek out the details on your own."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Town Crier tells you, "I've heard several additional reports of strange statues that those who have given up Asheron's Protections are fighting over."</font><br>
----
 
=== [[Ulgrim]] Rumors ===
 
''Free Rumors'':
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I tried out the changes to that Derethian Combat Arena. It is just no fun when the competition is so lousy. I can't believe these people even refer to themselves as warriors. More like fish if you ask me."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I ran into Lord Cynreft the other day and taught him how to not be such a push over. He's still far from any match for me, but then again, who is?"</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Asheron has called on my assistance with the mess in Tou-Tou. The toughest part will be trying to stay sober... Well I'm sure I'm still better than all those shadows when I'm drunk."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Cheers"</font><br>
''Stout Rumors:''
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It's been a while since I've fought alongside Asheron."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "You didn't know I fought with him? We stood back to back against many of the greatest threats in the history of Auberean."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Well I don't care if you don't believe me, but I do think you owe me another stout for being so rude."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Hurnmel finally realized he was sitting on a gold mine and raised the price of those Spectral Rares."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "If you ask me, only the weak need the aid of something like that."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Can you believe that the Jester had no idea how to deal with Void Magic. I had to explain the secret to defending yourself against nether spells."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Man that guy is annoying to talk to for more than a few seconds. He made me have to start drinking early that day."</font><br>
