Domestic News	1st ISSUE - RUEFELLO ENLIGHTENED?	Editor of the Mute Herald	Her Holy Grace, Duchess Rania Eastersand JeVondair, commemorates the commissioning and founding of The Mute Herald The rural province of Ruefello is Enlightened, but Rebels and anarchists are freely operating in the region. Her Holy Grace, Duchess Rania Eastersand JeVondair, entrust the lordship of the region to Vice-Marshal Astros Renodin to the surprise of many in the Sacred Court as rumors from undisclosed sources reported that the Vice-Marshal had so angered the Duchess that she had his estate in Rines cut in half. At this time, her Grace has declined to comment. Grand Templar Vahanian petitioned the Grand Council to open ALL ruling council positions to regular elections, which many percieved as a swipe at the Grand Herald himself. His motion was stymied, however, when the Oracle herself spoke up in favor of the status quo. The Grand Templar also voiced his concerns over the Grand Herald's new private military force, the HERALDS EXTERNAL FORCE. Locals in Rines warn of impending food shortages.
Military News	WHERE ARE THE TEMPLARS?	Editor of the Mute Herald	Monsters are rampaging in Ajitmon, Rueffelo, and Ardmore while Undead are rampaging in Athol Margos and Rueffelo! Over 15 peasants were reported as eaten, stomped, or otherwise killed by the monsters. Marshal Boltgan captured by Rouges in a skirmish in Ruefello when his forces were ambushed and overwhelmed. Estimated strengths: 370 attackers vs. 240 defenders. Current whereabouts are unknown, but family and well-wishers offer their hopes and prayers for his safe return. Several other Templars under his command were also wounded.
Inquisitor News	LICENCE TO CLEANSE?	Editor of the Mute Herald	A series of Inquisitorial raids have resulted in multiple arrests, confessions, and summary executions, reports an aid in the Grand Inquisitor's office. The investigation, lead by Inquisitor Adolphus, into Lady Jane Howard has revealed a cell of daimon worshipers operating in the vicinity of Rines. Investigation into the cell will continue, and Jane Howard has been declared guilty after a confession of Heresy. Another cell of heretics has been rooted out and cleansed by the team of Inquisitor Maura in the vicinity of Avengmil. Numerous heretic devices were confiscated, and shall be processed accordingly. Confessions of Heresy were obtained from two commoners, Widar and Hoary.
Gossip/Opinions	WHO's THE FAIREST OF THEM ALL?	Editor of the Mute Herald	This week we take a look at the aristocratic women of the Sacred Court! We polled farmers and craftsman from villages all over the realm to learn who they believe the most attractive noblewoman in the land is. Naturally, many were swift to name Priestess Kiki Raven, the Lady of Melegra. However, our investigators found this to be more the result of heresay as few who named her could even describe her features! Suffices to say that the votes were narrowed to a fierce competition between Lady Maura (27) of the Inquisition and Lady Antonia (25) of the Templars. Lady Maura won out over her younger counterpart by JUST ONE VOTE! After requesting anonymity, the caster of the deciding ballot later admitted that, having found BOTH women to be of equal beauty, he selected Lady Maura stating "Well, the two are literally as different as night an day, but Lady Maura has the same exotic Desert-of-Silhouettes features as the Oracle, right? When you take that into consideration, well, my vote practically cast itself" Rumor has it that Lady Janis, the former Grand Inquisitor, may or may not currently be involved with someone...

Rines: a sprawling City of Moonlight and eighth-largest settlement in the world. The city's bustling streets and quiet urban homests are surrounded by strong walls and high watchtowers, resplendent in moon-white stone, guarding the peaceful inhabitants. A deep-water port stands sentinel at the entrance to the city's waterways and trade centers. Guiding ships safely to harbor, the Seacliff Lighthouse stands sentinel just outside the city fortifications; remodeled to double as an inn and tavern for sailors and other patrons who prefer to be outside the well-policed walls. Though busy, the wide streets of Rines are rarely clogged, many bridges connecting the City to the small island that lay at its center, provide an excellent, scenic alternate to the winding streets of Rines. At the center of it all stands the palatial Basilica of Rines, a beacon of artful white stone and soaring minarets. As day turns to night, watchtower flames roar to life to ring the great city in light, a comforting sight to any weary traveler looking for a place to lay their head.
