Rumors are buzzing in the taverns frequented by trappers, miners, and other north-bound traders. The famed "snow angels" - legendary shadows seen in the blizzards with bright halos - have been seen. While accounts vary, it is clear they are no angels - they are hostile in every way.
One thing seems common and clear - these are enemies of Auril. They have assaulted her temple with fire and fist, and slain her worshipers they come across in the frozen wastes.
No one in the taverns claims to have seen them in person, so the descriptions are not easy to trust. A few Snow Leopards boast of meeting heroes who confronted these enemies. But accounts of these heroes vary as well.
Travelers have noted the safe havens in the north are no longer as welcoming as they once were - and they were never welcoming to begin with. The Temple of Auril has shut its doors to all but the most faithful. The few who have gone inside say their church is now an overflowing refugee camp, holding hundreds of northern men whose villages have been destroyed by quakes and assailants. The dwarves of Whurest seem equally worried, having doubled their guard on the gate and sending more frequent patrols to the road. They too are clearly alarmed by the hazards these "snow angels" bring.
