=== [[Town Crier]] Rumors ===
''Free Rumors'':
:Town Crier tells you, "I've heard reports of strange Virindi being spotted in the desert of Osteth." 

:Town Crier tells you, "I've heard rumors of strange Virindi sightings in Marae Lassel. What're the Virindi up to now?" 

:Town Crier tells you, "I swear I just saw someone run by in prismatic sedgemail. Is that even possible?" 

''Pyreal Rumors:''

:Town Crier tells you, "I have several reports of unusual Virindi in Greenspire, who seems interested in the recent activity on Marae Lassel." 
----

=== [[Ulgrim]] Rumors ===

''Free Rumors'':
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Shadow armor is coming back in style. Can't you tell I'm wearing some under this robe?"
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Just kidding, I'm not wearing anything under this robe." 

:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Each year around this time I wonder the same thing:"
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Why are there so many baby animals but no children?" 

:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "There's a new vicious Olthoi Queen lurking in Dereth."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Whispers suggest nature may not be at play here." 

''Stout Rumors:''
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I had the Master Armorers over for drinks the other night."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I told them their skills had not kept up with the times. They needed to craft far better armors to be of any relevance."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "So I let them in on some of my smithing secrets from back in the day."
:Ulgrim squints at you.
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Oh it's so tough to think that I could craft armor? It's so easy even a drudge could do it."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Anyway, I taught them how to make better equipment. Well, almost all of them."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Alduressa couldn't get past my little golems so I told him to go home."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'm still not sure why anyone would want that armor. Nothing beats a robe." 

:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "A lot of strange Virindi activity lately."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Well stranger than they normally are."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Even I don't like to mess with those unnatural "creatures"."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I hear that if you're drunk they can't mess with your brain."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Are you not listening? Give me some more stout!" 

:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "A new Olthoi Queen in this day and age?"
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, ""That doesn't seem odd to you?"
:Ulgrim's head falls limp before snapping up back up as he stares into your eyes.
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Something unnatural is afoot. Such meddling forces can create an imbalance."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "And when there is an imbalance, disaster always follows to correct it."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Heed these words, for they will resonate with you in the times to come."
:Ulgrim's head falls once again. He slowly raises it.
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Who are you? Oh right, we were talking about the Olthoi Queen."
:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Man, I think I blacked out. Quick, give me another stout before my buzz wears off."
