Rumours of Gullykin

An elven druidess known to Gullykin as Alyndra from Doron Amar, would help the village put out fires and help clearing rubble from the streets, after it was hit by three Golems. The first had been dispatched quickly by a ranger from the village and an elven mage. The tracks led to the tower of Durlag. The hin ranger decided to look for clues in the tower and went away.
But afterwards two more Golems appeared apparently from the crypt nearby and attacked again. (/// got no info about what happened here, so please fill in the gap if you know it)
Alyndra would help with burying the dead as well. The hin and gnomes were very upset cursing the name of the elven mage, Sirion, but they were appreciative enough to give Alyndra some gold, which she politely declined. She only mentioned that Gullykin once helped Doron Amar as well when they needed it.

Gullykin was attacked by a huge golem made of flesh early today - mage "Sirion" was at the scene luring it towards the village. As a result many halflings were injured but the golem was stopped. Two more were rumoured to have attacked nearby as well. As a result, Gullykin has beefed up security to protect themselves from future attacks.
Many people who were fighting the golems are claiming they were made from the corpses of local Beregost citizens that were reporting missing during the drow raids.
Althought the attacks seem to have calmed down, recently guards are advising caution as this could be the silence before the storm. Any information learned that may help in trying to figure out what is going on will be rewarded if reported to any of the local guards.

Mage "Sirion" was in fact not luring anything anywhere, but running for his life, and had a limited number of useful spells prepared to be of much use by the time he reached Gullykin, having already made ever so tiny dents in the massive creature. At the arrival of others after the first golem was defeated, once told that the council of Doron Amar was aware of the raids preceding this incident, he took quickly took his leave, only to return after the two other golems had attacked, led by a halfling ((Patch)).
This halfling got to work tending to the wounded and fallen while another new arrival, an Elven huntress by the name Wyn'caellia, had Sirion show her where he encountered the golem. They later returned to ask for a mirror for an attempt at scrying.

An unfamiliar face wanders through the gates of Gullykin. Nothing remarkable about his clothing or his body, with the exception of a finely crafted crossbow strapped across his back and numerous pouches hanging from his waist belt. The sun kissed hin greets his fellows and other residents of the village cordially as he makes his way to the nearest tavern, Yondalla's Cornucopia.

Word comes from Gullykin, apparently a group of adventurers brought a dark elf who was bound through the village. Where they intended to take her is unknown, however the sight of the Dark Elf brought terror to the village and resulted in a lynch party getting together. The Dark Elf was surrendered to them, and fell to her knees with a gag in, her hands and feet bound, and at their mercy. Halflings have only one way to deal with drow- upon the shout from their guards "Tolerance is Treason" they began to repeatedly stab at her attempting to slay her with their spears.
During the attempted execution, the sound of metal on steal was heard repeatedly however their spears couldn't make it through her armor as she kept her head tucked, the multiple stabs resulted in her hands that were bound coming free. She made it back to her feet, stumbling around with the blows repeatedly coming in,one resulted in her ear being cut. Upon realizing she was cut, she became enraged and started chanting. All that is known is the chant resulted in Necromantic Energy- and many of the guards and two of the adventurers dropped dead. The Drow was seen to unbind herself the rest of the way, leaving a slew of dead halfling and the two adventurers in her wake as she turned and left after killing those who were near her- her destination being unknown.
Any eye witnesses only know she headed towards Amn lands, apparently with a specific location in mind. The following details are given to any who would listen.
-She is small, though her armor is very sturdy and strong.
-The Drow is decorated in bright gold and solid black attire, marking her house in the Underdark.
-She seemed rather lazy even when it came to killing them, and once they were dead she seemed to smile, finding great entertainment in slaying those present.
-The Drow is a powerful spellcaster, and seemed to not move when she cast spells.

Quietly came the afternoon to Gullykin on the 27th day of Marpenoth, when a maybe unusual group step over the borders of the village.
An elf female and a human man, both dressed in mundane robes, a woman wearing light clothes and seemingly without any equipment, with a professional looking young man and a dalmatian dog leading them at the front.
The elf led a pack horse carrying many pouches, packages, and even a small barrel.
Those with keen eye to such, may notice the sizzling of the air under the heavy wards of the group, maybe the horse being warded the most carefully.
Without much time to waste, they made their way to the wizard tower, some of them could be seen there since, from time to time.

Lately an armored halfling can be seen standing against the opposite building of the wizard tower, watching who enters and leaves the tower. He watches with a neutral expression, his intentions unclear.

After hearing rumors of devil sightings in the south, Theadric Trickshot of Gullykin could be seen standing watch at the gates. He would make periodic patrols around the village walls, looking for any irregularities. Occasionally, while on watch he could be seen tinkering with traps.
In conjunction with his appearances, a parchment would be posted outside
Yondallas Cornucopia Tavern reading:
Fellows citizens of Gullykin I bring worrying news.
Devils and other threats have been spotted in the south, even near our good village. I ask that if any of you have seen or heard anything out of the ordinary in- or near Gullykin, that you report it to the appropriate sources, such as the local stalwarts or Gandolar. If you're unsure where to report it, feel free to approach me outside one of the gates.
May The Wary Sword watch us all.
Threadric Trickshot

What might have been heard as a minor argument through the open windows of a Gullykin house, escalated into a wild fight when the door was kicked open and an armored halfling, to some known as Theadric Trickshot, escaped the house. Not but a short while after, what might resemble his four sisters stood in the doorway hurling a tornado of forks, spoons, pots, and several other kitchen tools after him, followed by various profanity shouted in the halfling language. When finally out of reach, the door was shut with a loud bang.
Theadric was later seen making his way towards Candlekeep

A Missive sent to Gullykin to be posted on a board.
I, Alyssia Leonhart, am working to restore and revitalize the Halls of Inner Light within the palace district of Baulder's Gate, where as I am sure you know, one of your goddesses, Sheela Peryroyl is both welcomed and worshiped. As I hope to take over as the High Lady of the Temple, I am seeking those that would be able to instruct me in the ways of your goddess so I might be able to understand and represent her during your ventures to Baulder's Gate.
I thank you in advanced for any assistance or direction as to where to go to learn about your wonderful goddess,
~Alyssia Leonhart~

A short message reaches the wizard tower, in artfully written letters. Sealed with a blue wax in form of a Tymoran Lucky coin.
Hey Eth,
thanks for the donations, friend. I already bought off the instruments myself.
I hope to sell more soon. Shame you can't make it, but i will advertise you a little in return.
Wish me Luck.
Good luck to you
Freya

A halfling woman, dressed in purple and maroon finery can be seen meeting with both the Mayor of Gullykin and the Owner of Yondala's Cornucopia Tavern. Those paying close attention would note that a hearty and welcome business-like chat was had before the group would shake hands enthusiastically and part ways.

Theadric Trickshot is once again seen entering Gullykin, alongside three other hins, two-old-looking and one young. They briefly share words, before the group of three enter the Yondalla's Cornucopia Tavern. The remaining hin makes his way towards a particular house; once he arrives, he pauses outside the entrance for several minutes, as if having to pass an impenetrable barrier, before ultimately entering.
