Introductions
Cymbria Devereaux - Just recently returned and taken residence in
the Library of Courage in PaxLair City, Felucca, next to Luigi's
Pizzeria. She is sealing the books and there is a donation box at the
Library too.
Mayor's Announcements
Mayor Winfield stated that the "Age of Cities" of the PaxLair
Community continues until the 9th Anniversary of PaxLair (January 19,
2007). The "Age of Cities" focuses on leadership (by the Viceroys and
government of each city), activities, housing development, and
interaction between cities and the shard. There will be a new Age
announced at the 9th Anniversary Celebration.
Minister of Defense
No report - However, watch for Ophidian war information throughout the week on the Stratics Chesapeake Forum.
PaxLair City, Felucca Report
There is a new Inn in PaxLair City that also houses a branch of the
PaxLair Post Office. The other branch office is in PaxOku. People may
be 'friended' to the building to sleep there when needed, and may also
obtain a PO box by working with the Innkeeper. There is also increased
activity in the pubs and libraries in PaxLair City, such as the Ladies
of the Lair operated by Lenora and the Library of Courage operated by
Cymbria Devereaux. Lenora announced the Ladies of the Lair Tavern is
reopening next week on Tuesday and every Tuesday from 8-9 PM ET, before
the PaxLair meeting.
PaxOku, Tokuno Report
Viceroy Visago announced there is a new Inn in PaxOku where people
may rest and stay. It is on the south end of town and includes the
Viceroy's office. Last week PaxOku hosted a live broadcast from the
Blue Light Tavern (BLT) prior to the Thursday adventure night. The
broadcast went throughout the shard. PaxOku is also exploring the
possibility of constructing a fighting/sports arena. The Adventure
last Thursday was a great success due in no small part to aid from the
DAGR pirates. A beast was slain in Tokuno that night. This coming
Thursday will be an adventure to the Gauntlet.
Dragons Watch, Felucca Report
Viceroy NANOC completed a survey of Dragons Watch and left "books of
interest" on all steps. Responses are still slow. Also, the Tavern in
DW is making progress on its construction. There will be a DW event
soon that is still in the detailed planning stages.
Port Baldmor, Trammel Report
Viceroy Kerrs Holley announced that Port Baldmor recently opened a
vendor shop called the Black Market Vendors. Vendors spots are
available -- talk to Budswoman. The shop will have a lot of fishing
supplies too. Orike Munra also visited saying he escaped from the
Void. Orike also mentioned to watch out for Valtos and Queen Sara, who
have been spotted lurking in the area. Queen Sara was seen last week
doing evil, destroying two statues in the city of PaxOku and stole the
light from the top of a building, as reported by Lenora.
Additional Reports and Announcements
Korin the Scribe appeared at the meeting. Korin the Scribe was once
a resident of the town of Haven far to the South of DW. He left the
land many years ago and has just returned. He found Haven mostly in
ruin, but more importantly he could not find anyone who knew of Theros
Ironfeld's whereabouts. So Korin headed to PaxLair City. Theros is
apparently hiding, probably pursued by some evil; Theros has taken the
Hammer and Sword with him. Also, someone retained a box from Theros to
be given to Korin. Korin received the box and inside it held a staff
forged by Theros with the Hammer. Another item was a small key with a
simple engraving on it called "crate". Korin continued his journey to
PaxLair City, but did not see anyone in the city at the time. Korin
meditated at the Spring of Courage and saw a vision of Seer Daemeon
standing in the spring as he did once long ago. Daemeon's hands were
outstretched holding a shining globe. In the globe was a cloudy
picture of a battle. There were six warriors locked in combat, each
wielding weapons. One weapons was the Sword of Truth. The others could
not be recognize. It appeared three of the warriors were evil. Seer
Daemeon's vision disappeared and a voice seemed to say "Trust in the
Principles. They will guide you." After hearing this, Mayor Winfield
quickly left the PaxLair meeting and returned with a "crate"; he gave
the crate to Korin. Korin's key unlocked the crate and inside revealed
three books. One was titled "read me" and two others were in some
strange language or code. Korin said he needed time to decipher the
other two books.
Eric the Red stated the Library of Knowledge was successfully moved
over [to Chesapeake]. There will be books and tales of another land in
the Library. Also, two books of Sin will be on display either at the
Library of another location. The Books of Sin were part of a quest
several months ago. People have also heard the Shadow may be forming a
Council of Sin. More should be known in the coming week.
Post-meeting Activity
Several people stayed after the meeting in Dragons Watch. Viceroys
NANOC and Kerrs Holley were seen talking with much enthusiasm, perhaps
about secret ale recipies. Viceroy Visago and Mayor Winfield had a
quiet discussion while others enjoyed comradery and companionship.
