Suspicious Noble Handover between Westfold and Swordfell! November 30, 2016
It may be known that Westfold and Swordfell recently signed a peace treaty, agreeing upon some region swaps. That's old news.

Here's the juicy part!

The local lord of Fatexna, Gildarts Bundeswig, stepped down because the region would be given to Swordfell. Both Rulers King Rossgyr Shulee of Westfold and Imperatirx Mildgyd Barras of Swordfell met in the region. Before announcing the official give-away, King Rossgyr appointed poor Grom Leafcutter to be Lord of Fatexna. Not long after, both rulers signed the papers to hand over Fatexna from Westfold to Swordfell with a sitting Region Lord. The result was an innocent Lord Grom Leafcutter thrust among his former enemies in Swordfell, without any forewarning and without his consent.

Was this the plan of King Rossgyr all along, to get rid of the poor 24-year old Grom Leafcutter? Or was this the plan, an arranged marriage for Grom with someone in Swordfell? Or was it the plan for King Rossgyr to get a foothold in Swordfell by appointing his own Lord?

Details are still sketchy, but this is a surprising act to say the least. It seems unlikely that it was an accident, especially for a ruler as experienced as King Rossgyr Shulee.

Theft Reported amid Rumours of Increased Drug Use November 29, 2016
A theft was reported to the Magistrate of Westfold recently regarding the sudden disappearance of an undescribed "herb". The victim in the crime was the Baron of Weinschenk, Lord Dengar Soul. The accusations were brought forward with a request for immediate investigation into the matter. Unfortunately, the Magistrate of Westfold, Lord Draco Dogsbody, refused the investigation which prompted Baron Soul to accuse the Magistrate himself of stealing the prized herb. While most publicly agreed that the herb in question was not intended for nefarious purposes, the description of the herb suggested that it was, in fact, Ikrif. After the accusation of the Magistrate, in an effort to appease both sides, and perhaps profit a bit himself, Earl Grom Leafcutter offered to provide copious amounts of the herb, claiming that his skill in horticulture lead to his family's surname. Upon further investigation by Lord Soul, the Magistrate himself came forward an admitted his guilt in this particular crime, but countered by saying confiscation was a royal matter necessary for the conduct of the torture of Westfold's enemies. Not pursuaded to desist, Lord Soul requested that he be compensated for his loss by the Magistrate. As of print-time, it is uncertain whether Magistrate Dogsbody has paid the debt, and whether Lord Leafcutter will be cultivating the unknown herb.

The unfortunate reality of this recent drama is an increase in ikrif and raha use among the peasantry of Dwilight, which has clearly wormed its way into the hearts and minds of the nobility in certain corners of the continent. While usage hasn't increased to such a stage that the nobility might be considered hopeplessly addicted, ikrif use tends to ensnare its users over time. The question remains, how deep does this increase in usage go, and who are the suppliers? Continue to read the Dwilight Daily for further developments in this story.
