Boots tread toward the Eastern District before suddenly turning. Down darker alleys he treads before disappearing out of sight in a place of danger, a place decent folk just don't go.
As the man turns into the alleys of the wind swept docks district, eyes turn their attention to the out of place interloper. Shadows swirl and blend, trailing their potential mark. For now... they watch.
"It is more honorable to be raised to a throne than to be born to one. Fortune bestows the one, merit obtains the other."
Rumor is spoken in the East District of a moment of common and chaos...when a dwarf bearing insignia of Kingdom of Kraak Helzak burst out of the door to Maltz' shop, a well-worn dwarven waraxe in hand, seemingly on the chase for something...that none but he seemed to be able to see.
The dwarf paused in the doorway, then made a quick dash toward the Docks District. Not but a few swift stout leg lengths west were spent before the skilled blade began swinging at the air before him...and though no form was seen being hit, the blade of the dwarf did produce blood, and more blood, and then more blood upon the steel...until finally, the swinging stopped, and a human form appeared out of thin air, falling to the ground, in a puddle of slashed and bloodied flesh.
The dwarf, near rage-point by the look for his face, stood above the fallen figure, axe in hand, just waiting to see if the figure would move at all more, and receive yet another blow...such that would snuff out whatever breath left.
A knightly figure arrived on the scene, and is said the dwarf cautioned the bold and armored knight with these words: "Don't ya be touchin' this scum...He be a thief, and got wat was comin' to him."
And then...blammo, the figure jumped up, fully healed (!!!)...the dwarf placed a strong hand on the figure, but then the thief made an artistic escape move...and ran away as if nothing happend!
A message is pinned to the board outside the Elfsong Tavern. There are a series of random numbers and letters that surround a depiction of a lethargic wolf peering at an unseemly imp.
A hooded figure spends quite some time reading the messages on the board outside the Elfsong tavern. He then walks hastily towards the docks of Baldur's Gate
A raven-haired teifling wandering about The lands offering some work for those that are tired of sitting about under the threat from the devil raids even defenses and fighting back against them. Mostly asking for stone workers and talented construction workers for now, but more than willing to take on the few that want to fight back against the threat. Mentioning that Soubar is in need of mass to press back against the raids and hoards stilling back from dragon spear before continuing on on the roam, oddly targetting the refugees camp more so. Offering clean beds in a sheltered fortress, food, and drink for their time and efforts.

Over the last few days, a knight errant making his way to and fro from the Temple of Tyr, could be noticed stopping at the bulletin board outside the Elfsong—as it stood alongside his repeated path—and making sketches of the numerous numbers and letters that were upon postings left there. In his copying of the post to a held parchment, he writes descriptions of the drawings.
A day after the last night, the same knight errant can be seen momentarily stopping at the board again, rubbing his chin, and staring at a blank spot left there.
He would eventually move on again to Tyr's Temple, with a pensive, far off gaze upon his face.
A Messenger would me seen entering the ducal palace with a scroll in hand , He would leave but after a day return. After some time he would depart with another scroll in hand. Rumors have it he was heading for soubar.
