REBELS RE-EMERGE AS GUARDSMEN ARE HURT!

Shocks this week for the guardsmen militia as remnants of the Yewish rebel movement reappeared to cause grief to members of the Guardsmen Militia. Whether or not the small gangs were what remains of the Free Yew Volunteers is yet to be known, but the armed pockets of rebel activity have stung a number of patrolling guardsmen around our Northern township. While an initial disturbance in the King's Deer Tavern was eventually repelled, a number of lone guardsmen have been caught up by disaffected citizens still frustrated in the wake of the "O'Gara Uprising."

The latest victim of such an assault is reported to be new Marksman Corporal, Ffion Derwyn! A pair of celtic men were spotted dragging the fallen petty officer to the sheep pens West of the Keep. The group exchanged an array of colourful language before the senior guardswoman was deprived of her uniform basics! Stripped of the colours of Yew, the rebels even demanded Ms. Derwyn's parade arm as they stood in judgment. "You can have these back, when you are fit to protect Yew!" one of her aggressors shouted.

Whatever her 'test' was meant to be, it is apparent the markswoman refused and was pushed to her knees and restrained, as another of the gang took her beloved golden arms. This assault was not the first, a recent string of similar offences have left a number of more junior guardsmen fleeing back to their garrison home shy of kilts and sashes. Beyond the symbolic, the purpose of these assaults is unknown. Whether or not such incidents are crimes of angry frustration, or a more co-ordinated series of assaults remains to be discovered; though it should not be disputed that these happenings represent a return to confidence in Yew's dissenting rebels.
