June 13, 1094: The first strike. Wyrmmes travelling from Drakoria are mysteriously slain in the inn they were residing at in the city of Creel. When asked by potential witnesses, no one could offer any direct clues as to why, save "They were wyrmmes. They were risking their own life coming onto Kasurian soil." Others found it to be a shame as despite their species, they were pleasant and kind folk. With them, they also had a daughter, but her tiny body was never found. She was believed to be dead, however May 4th, 1123: Passareen. A family of wyrmmes in the area were attacked. Parents and their young, 8 year old son were out on a walk on day when they were attacked by a band of furres. The father, known as Nakahira was able to fend off the three felines, which he described as a grey lynx, a white rat and a coyote. The attack was poorly executed and resulted in the death of the coyote. All three wyrmmes were injured in the fight but made a recovery. They soon moved to a quietier, more private life in the forests near Passareen. July 23rd, 1149: In Creel, two furres were attacked one evening on their way home from the local tavern. It is said that the two furres in question were well known wyrmme lovers and did what they could to make local and visiting wyrmmes seem at home. Others believed one of them was a magically disguised 'lizard' as their offspring were described as 'hideous and scaled'. Both were found and carted to the infirmary that evenig. The furre known as Matthaeus died on the way and his mate, Adelle, spent many days in the infirmary, recovering from her wounds. August 3rd, 1156: Woodlawn, a wedding was taking place. Though the couple to be wed were not wyrmmes, they were known to have had wyrmme and half wyrmme friends. Another attack took place that night to a group of three; all brothers and all halfbreeds. Though the twins, Forest and Pheanyx, managed to escape with minor injuries, their younger five year old brother was killed. One of the furres involved, a lion, was caught. Unfortunately, before they could interrogate him, he slit his own throat.
Late Fall of 1159. It is said that the Silver Phoenix has rose again. Raven ti'Darlach recently purchased an inn near the Old Wyrmme Ruins and is currently trying to rebuild the town into what it once was. Conclusion: It is still unknown who is behind these attacks and if they are all linked. Authorities have reason to believe they are, but due to the age of most, many have been forgotten. For the victims of the Silver Phoenix, however, there is a small bit of hope that this murderers may soon be found and brought to Justice. |
