\nDay 13, Year 538 of the Ascendancy<\/font><\/p>\n

\nThe witch priestess of the Nox Sorora, Lilit, has
\nrecently been indicted many times of summoning forth undine, but has
\nalways come forth unscathed, through lack of evidence. After today’s
\nevents, however, Lilit may not get off so easily. Lilit has many times
\nsummoned undine from the Abyss with her dark rites, but never before on
\nthe scale as was witnessed today.<\/font><\/p>\n

\nOn the morn of the 13th day of Winter, after
\npartaking in a brief rescue in the Trool Town(in which I ended up on my
\nback, as usual), I headed to the undine hut in the northern fields of
\nPuddleby, which from broken sunstone messages I had desiphered that
\nmuch was amiss. And indeed, much was wrong there. Lilit and Aromae, a
\nnew accomplice of hers, were bent upon much destruction, and with their
\nrites they summoned forth many powerful undine from the nether. Greater
\nWraiths, Death Furies, Faithless, Ghastly Presences, and Corpse
\nWarriors were much too common within the dark cavern that day. Many
\nexiles rushed forth to the cavern, and many were wounded and felled,
\nbut eventually Lilit’s forces were pushed back.<\/font><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"The<\/font><\/p>\n

\nStill, it is alarming to see how Lilit’s power
\ngrows daily; she now even gathers support from other exiles, including
\nsuch as Aromae, Sau’lo Dra’kh, and Fuzz. And the Ghastly Presence, the
\ninvisible foe with much might… I have not seen such vile undine since
\nthe Great Forgetting. Hopefully, today’s showing will have taught Lilit
\na lesson, but somehow that seems doubtful. For now, at least, we can
\nkeep her dark forces at bay.(See a Vision Stone<\/a> of the Ghastly Presence)<\/font><\/p>\n

\nOn a lighter note, the Puddeby Clan Council
\nsponsored art contest has come to a close, and the many pieces of art
\nsubmitted for the contest are now on public display, and await judging.
\nThe pieces are mainly of great events that have touched Puddlby, or
\nportraits of prominent exiles. The judges will surely have a hard time
\njudging the entries, for the pieces are simply superb! But don’t take
\nmy word for it! Go to the Art Contest Scrolls<\/a>, and see for yourself!<\/font><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
