Rumors spread in taverns

[Product of Void]

A woman married to a lumberman who lives in the north has not seen her husband in a few days, she worries the orcs might have taken him.

The temple is having problems with crowding of injured soliders with stories of horrors from the north fort.

Undead and orcs are gathering in the north. Necropolis has quieted down as the greater undead has joined forces. Adventures have only spied minor undead creations with no intellegence at Necropolis.

Careful when paying your taxes, ontop of counting coin they are taking numbers of able body men, even the young ones. Those who are short stags get inlisted to make up debt, then sent to the north.
