Twelve days has passed since the mutilated corpses of twenty former suppressors, and the message left by Pakaros and the Free Mages, had been discovered. In that time, the USR and local Swaraj law enforcement had launched an investigation into the killings and the Free Mages. To the surprise of the local populace, members of the Bounty Hunter Brotherhood...

Zamfir Grader has been reported dead. He was found in his bed early this morning by his daughter, Koani Grader. The cause of death is unknown at this point (the resident coroner has yet to perform an autopsy), but it's suspected that he "died of a broken heart" — that is to say that, after his mate's death, he lost his will for life and wasted away. When asked for comment, Koani affirmed this view and attributed her father's demise to stress and grief.

He will be...

It was a date destined to be a historical one. Xabu, Cussla, and Lelres — normally simple moons, orbiting smoothly around Ramath-lehi — were now rocketing satellites of impending death and destruction.

A total solar eclipse is a spectacular natural phenomenon and many people travel to remote locations just to observe one. Due to having multiple moons, Ramath-lehi was no stranger to solar eclipses, as both Xabu and Cussla had enough mass to block out the sun. The...

Ramath-lehi's greatest scientists had first predicted it years ago. At the time they had been excited and tickled with glee. They were to witness a natural phenomenon — albeit an incredibly rare one. This sort of thing only happened once every few millennia! If anything it ought to be cause for celebration.

Now the date was fast approaching.

Doomsayers had gotten hold of this event's information and had spun it into a tale of apocalyptic destruction. They...
