New Pastime Spreads Like Wildfire!
By Revan


Recently a new phenomenon has been sweeping through Giblot faster than a particularly bad bout of the Black Plague! Everyones taking it up, even the nobles themselves are getting involved personally in this new sport! It all stems from recent border clashes with hostile forces. Citizens and troop leaders alike have found that the decapitated heads of these said aggressors make for a wonderful football! Many a game of 'headball' as it is being referred to, has taken place throughout Giblot. Local Giblot toystore manager said that he would have to stop stocking footballs at this rate as there is just a 'chronic, lack of demand for footballs at this time.' This reporter has been told that apparently the heads travel better through the air than footballs, although it must be reported that visits to healers have now risen sevenfold thanks to this dangerous and daring new sport!
When asked, one healer said of the current trend 'I could buy myself a whole region at this rate!'The rumours say that if acts of war cease then the supplies will dry up, thus destroying this wonderful new sport before it has even begun! Several local underworld leaders however have declared that they 'will' be able to keep supplies up 'should such a shortage occur.'

New Bridges Opened in Giblot
By Revan


Early this month two new bridges were opened in a blaze of secrecy. Indeed, everybody from the high ranking noblility too the lowly peasants were baffled by the sudden appearance of two bridges overnight. Some people have cited witchcraft, whilst others blame our enemies for the new bridges. Personally this reporter thinks its all in the water! In any case it was quickly agreed that the gatehouses on our side of the bridges should be decorated. Several spikes on the gatehouses have now been reserved for 'decoration' with the heads of any enemies daring to try and cross the new bridges. Suitable candidates have yet to offer their heads for decoration at this time.
