The Tain Gala —


A Masquerade to
Remember!
SHARN—The Tain Gala, the city's most coveted
and exclusive social event, is set to dazzle once
again this month with a breathtaking masquerade
ball. Held at the renowned Azure Gateway
Restaurant in the Azure district of Skyway, this
elite gathering promises to be a spectacle of
opulence, intrigue, and mystery. With its soaring
views of the city and its reputation for culinary
excellence, the Azure Gateway is the perfect
setting for Sharn's finest to indulge in an evening
of decadent revelry.

This month’s theme, a grand masquerade, has


already sparked a flurry of excitement among the
upper crust of Sharn society. Fashion houses
across the city are scrambling to outfit their most
prestigious clients in the latest trends, from
enchanted masks that shimmer in the moonlight
to gowns woven with threads of starlight. The
attendees will, as always, be a parade of the who’s
who in Sharn—nobles, merchant lords,
ambassadors, and adventurers who have made
their name in the city’s ever-changing landscape.

However, one name on the guest list stands out


above all others: Flamewind, the enigmatic
Sphinx of Xen'drik, who now calls Morgrave
University her home. Known for her cryptic
prophecies and vast knowledge, Flamewind’s
presence has sent waves of intrigue through the
social circles. What insights might she share
during the evening? Will her attendance signal
more than just a social call? Whispers abound,
and many of Sharn’s elite are eager to gain even
a moment of her attention at the Gala.

Trouble in the Cogs

The Cogs, for those new to Sharn, is the


name for the vast series of tunnels and
caverns carved out of the very bedrock
our wonderful city rests upon.

All manner of industry, from smithing


to leatherworking, takes place in the
Cogs, safely out of sight (and smell) of
the general population.

It seems that not all is well in the Cogs


however, as dozens of Warforged have
gone on strike, protesting for better pay
and living conditions.

One of the ‘Forged, who called itself


Rubble said “We were created for war,
of that there can be no debate, but this,
this is slavery, and we were not built for
slavery.”

Jebbins Craw, owner of Craw’s


Metalworks had a different point of
view, “Well, they aint actually livin’
creatures, aint nothin’ changing that.
They be tools, and aint no carpenter I
know what pays his hammer for a days
work.”

Saint-Germain does it again!!

The fine folks of Rattlestone can sleep a


little easier tonight, as Victor
Saint-Germain, one of Sharn’s most
skilled and successful inquisitives, has
solved yet another case.

Master Inquisitive Victor


Saint-Germain has managed to
accomplish what the combined efforts
of both the City Watch and House
Medani seemed unable to do:
apprehend the murderer known only
as the Ivory Gargoyle.

As our loyal readers know, the Ivory


Gargoyle has been terrorizing the fine
folks of Middle Dura for over a month
now- and may be responsible for
dozens of murders around Sharn.

Saint-Germain refused to comment,


instead only shouted his now-famous
motto: “Criminals should fear both my
sword and my wit, as both are
razor-sharp!”
House Medani refused to comment.

Warden Haskle Hirin Hooper (known


around Sharn as HQ), was quoted as
“The Blackened Book stands between
the upright citizens of Sharn and all
manner of foul magic”. When asked for
a comment about this particular case,
the surly gnome threw a shoe at the
Sharn Reporter.

The Gemstone Bandits have struck again, maybe…!

Earlier this morning the Watch was called to Morgrave University by the morning
janitor, Oswald Quinn. Mr. Quinn was scheduled to clean theKhyber Dragon Shards
collection recovered from Xen’Drik when, according to Mr. Quinn, “Every dang case
and display were empty; dem Bandits took every last bit and bobble!”

Contrary to Mr. Quinn, Watch Captain Alex Baster told the Sharn Inquisitive, “All of
those creepy gemstones were clearly in their displays. I suggest Mr. Quinn lay off the
alcohol and Dream Lily.”

Morgrave University claims Mr. Quinn has been put on leave pending an
investigation. Mr. Quinn and Watch Captain Baster could not be reached for further
comment.
