Charity in Sestra

[Phantom Lamb]

Many miles away (( no Police references please )) from Sundren City, charitable endeavors are being organized in Sestra. Programs include:

• A food drive, stocking up on seeds, salted meat, and corn meal for those struggling in the area
• A clothing drive, which is collecting everything from fabrics to blankets
• A volunteer militia, trained by professionals and put on patrol throughout the nearby area

The programs have been productive. They have been going on for several months now, and the town has seen positive results. News of these programs hasn't been exactly forthcoming, and is just now reaching the ears of those who call Sundren City their home.

Hearing of these rumors, Yashia recalls a distant day, many months ago, when something the like was first initiated. When Juney, Daelus and herself had uncovered a smuggling operation beneath the city. Though they had attempted to thwart it and failed in the battle that ensued, the 'merciful' smugglers had left them alive and cared for, unbound and free to leave in an unknown home. Sestra, they knew as soon as they walked outside. The smuggling of foods was at first glance unprofitable, and the goods were distributed among the people there.

The name of a certain group came up when they further investigated what was going on. A group that wasn't at all on good terms with the people in power of the valley. Making a name for themselves and winning the hearts of the people, was the first thought that struck Yashia's mind. But at that point, she couldn't do much except spread word of what she thought. And it had mostly gone ignored, forgotten as more time passed. It was harmless enough to take any direct action.

A mistake. Volunteer militia? Were they getting military influence over the peaceful town at Sundren's coastline? Hmm... this does not bode well.
