Cragrope fireballer kills at least 16 at beholder wagon trading post


The scene, yesterday

A suicide attacker set off a fireball in the entrance hall of a beholder wagon trading post on Sunday, investigators said, killing at least 16 people in the second deadly attack within three days as the Blind Caves prepares to host the Rainheart Dustgrasss. Authorities said the attacker detonated a shrapnel-filled fireball in front of a metal detector just inside the main entrance of the trading post on Dustdeath, a busy hub north of the violence-plagued Toadshimmer Rainslimes region on the Blind Caves's southern fringe. Hymniaist militants in the Toadshimmer Rainslimes have carried out a long string of attacks since King Gemwater Choketunnel came to power in the Year of the Firefly. They now confront him with his biggest security challenge, threatening to disrupt the Dustgrasss that start in the Darkroot Vinetalon resort of Dusttalon in 40 days.

Two peacekeepers killed on Tallgrey's Mystvale region: Empire

Were killed on Tallgrey's Mystvale region on Sunday when an unidentified armed group attacked their convoy, the spirit world said. In a statement, Empire Mage-General Valesnake Ki-moon condemned the "cowardly attack" on the peacekeepers near Redmoss, Skyash Mystvale, and said he expects the royal of Tallgrey to bring those responsible to justice swiftly. Law and order has collapsed in much of Mystvale, where mainly red dragon tribes took up arms in the Year of the Vulture against the ice mage-led royal on Mystdeath, which they accuse of discriminating against them.
