PAXOKU, TOKUNO - October 28th, 2006

The Grim Reapers attack at the BLT

Citizens of PaxOku and allied guilds battled a steady stream of evil Grim Reapers last night, when the graveyards of Britannia became overran with undead.  The Grim Reapers - caretakers of many precious cursed artifacts - where speedily dispatched by the army assembled by Lady Sounder and Lord Gareth, and their spoils were divided amongst the combatants.

What was largely sought were the Grim Reapers' scythes, which rumour holds when taken, the Reapers become powerless.  Alas not a single scythe was recovered that evening, and the Grim Reapers continued to plague the resting grounds of thousands of coffins.

The Gatekeeper, the legendary questmaster, was also spotted numerous times by the fighters.  When questioned his only response was "DIE. DIE. DIE".  And many died.  But many survived, and many others collected Twighlight Lanterns from the bodies of red skeletons at the graveyards. 

In other news around the land, pumpkins have become ripe to pick on the vines of many pumpkin patches.  Jack O' Lanterns are also appearing in the fields, the sources of their light - unknown.  Reports even suggest ebony pumpkins have been growing, a possible hint of greater evils lurking in the lands?

The horrors continue as of this writing, and the Grim Reapers are still out in force at the cemeteries of Sosaria.  Another hunt is planned for this night; and naturally for night:  the true time of the Grim Reapers.
