Urgent News!
I decided to call in the Swaggers for a quick mug of milk,and a chance to speak with the barmaid if she was on duty
As I opened the door,I was taken aback to see none other than Lord Light sat there as large as life!!
Greeting him warmly,it was good ro see his return. Nils Twothumb was inviting Light to take a seat whilst he relayed some news he had .
We all gathered ready to hear,but none of us were prepared for the chilling tale we were about to be told.
Lord Light began by telling us how he had been studying a piece of blackrock and looking into the case of Ricardo.
Suddenly he heard some arcane words spoken behind him and before he fully knew what was happening,his tower was reduced to rubble,all his literature and research notes burnt in the blaze that struck.
Nils asked if he had chance to see who this person was before it all happened.
Light went on to explain it was more a sense of knowing than seeing
"His magic made me feel sick...it was dark and.evil,reaking of death and decay."
"So it could of been anyone", pondered Nils.
"it was no commom man",went on Light,"his hand was cold to the touch,yet he was not dead.He breathed,yet didnt"
Though his words,made little sense , I scribbled furiously as he next spoke of a vision of sorts he had, had.
" I saw a small ciry,that looked like Vesper,Lord British walking through some woods with Lord Blackthorn.
I saw a city become a swamp,and then as I tasted blood I saw the future.
I saw Moonglow,being covered by water,and the walls of luna crumbling....I heard the lands screaming....even the Virtues were thrown into dismay."
Suddenly as though awakening from a dream, he stopped and said he had to leave. He told us his life was in danger and he had seen many things including his own death. My heart was gripped with an icy cold from his words, as I offered him to remain with us and together we would all change this ' vision' and turn the tide of events he believed to be the future.
Speaking clearly now he informed myself,Nils,Erika,kimi and Lance, that his death was not to be for some time. However he would not hide in fear, but face and accept it. Nils remarked how some times seeing the future can be a blessing, and this just went to show others, that if they had pieces of blacktock,doing tests on it could prove fatal.
Lord Light remarked,he thought he had gotten to close to something,though could recall naught but the pain.A pain that would never leave ,so he could not interfere in ' his ' wok anymore,he said he was told. He explained how his companion,Aeron Gend,had found him and tended to him
Once more he became nervous and at this stage Aeron told us they must leave so he could take Lord Light to a safe place,where nne would find.
Lord Light promosed to send regular reports to the Oracle so we would know how he fared and his work.
Aeron opened a portway and bidding us farewell they both stepped through, lost to us for ever it would seem.
So this is my report on the matter as much as I am able to recall from the notes I made.

Happiness is a Haven Bench!
Peace in the sleepy town of Haven once more was disturbed by hooded people known as “Enforcers”, same who burned down shrine in the past. The Order of Haven, militia led by Darkion engaged them so order was quickly established again, even not without some casualties. Fortunately, with the exception of Grim Reapers, the plague of all Sosarian towns, this was isolated incident after long time, so senior citizens on benches, bank sitters and young people were able to return to their pondering.

Dear Poste,
I was most intrigued to read the poetry in last Wednesday's issue. I would appreciate it if the person who found the copy of said poem etched into the cave wall could contact me as soon as possible, as I may have information regarding the author.

A Comment
Yesterday’s Poste contained an article referring to the “Elf of the Trinsic Rose” – Just to let you know that the Elven Guild occupies more than just the Trinsic Rose and has an entire quarter near to sunny Trinsic. SO not all Elves live in the Trinsic Rose. Thank you.
What Happened Next?
A reader has kindly donated a picture here of a mounted posse preparing to take to the roads and byeways of Sosaria.
What are they up to? Who are they? Answers on a Clockwork Owl delivered letter please.
