Local citizens of both Fort Vehl and Port Hempstead have become unnerved by the sudden increase in heavily protected caravans of goods arriving from several places on Alindor, Dreger and from across Mistone. Each new arrival seems to contain the heraldry of some other group or nation, Ulgrid dwarves, Bloody gate dwarves, Kartherian mercantile groups, Raven Trade Guild and other large guilds, Trelania and even the city of Lyn high in the Hammerbound Peaks.
Not only that but heavily armoured groups of dwarves and human counterparts in service to Dorand have moved in to oversee the coordination of the arrivals.
In perhaps the most amazing revelation to date is the arrival outside Fort Vehl in the early hours of the morning not long ago where a combined host of dwarves bearing Ulgrid Livery set up camp alongside several giants obviously in service to Grannoch.
Messengers back and forth from Fort Vehl have been told that its in response the the growing unsettlement of the earth but nothing more than that.
Several well known individuals in the world have been spotted regularly between the cities including the famous dwarven craftsman Fenrir Thornaxe who it seems many of the dwarven nations, churches and other institutions dealing with the earth have nominated as their unanimous representative in dealing with the matter. A rare position indeed.
If the growing unease in the markets and seemingly the earth as well is any indication he has his work cut out for him.
