"A delegation of Mages and Academics from Luskan are expected to arrive soon in Waterdeep to negotiate with the Lords over shipping rights and responsabilities. Rumour has it that they aare bringing a gift for the city, so they must be up to no good!"

"Grisly Murder! An innocent washer woman was dragged into the sewers by a former school master. Both reportedly disappeared under the dark waters not to be seen again although a human hand was found later that day in a grating. The school master has been identified as Tomach Greenfngers formerly of good standing and a native of Waterdeep. He had not been at work that day. A ring on one finger was identified as belonging to the missing woman. She leaves behind no family having been widowed last winter."
