Panic in the Commons
Several unskilled workers have divulged that they have recently been contracted to renovate portions of the Hearty House (we refuse to refer to the once great building as the Daemon’s Grin Manor). Assuming that this work pertains to the return of the mercenaries, shop owners are urged to consider increasing the number of guards on staff to deal with the incoming riff-raff.

Same name, nothing new
Rumors about the renovation of the Hearty House appear to be true as a group of mercenaries branding themselves as the Daemon’s Grin Group have taken up residence in the manor. The city clerks office affirms that these brigands have filed all necessary paperwork and paid all required fees to operate a mercenary company out of the manor.

Ergot rye bread illegal?
This author finds the criminality of ergot rye bread outrageous. The common folk have few enough pleasures that removing an inexpensive, harmless recreation may engender a bitter mood in the populace.
Contracts taken by Daemon’s Grin Group brings some notoriety.

Shutdown of Aaron’s Alchemical Products
After a contentious hearing in the Merchant’s Guild Hall it was determined that the alchemy shop in the lower market was required to close. Even with testimony from the University and several merchants and residents of the commons, the guild still found that only one alchemy shop in town should be allowed. Aaron Moarter, the former proprietor of the aforementioned shop has moved out of Everward.

Lower Market sensation
A new confectioner, Billy Bonka’s Sweets has opened shop in the lower market to much fanfare. Locals can not get enough of the amazing treats. The shop was assembled in record time with the separation between the date of purchase of the building and the store opening being a mere week.
Little is known about the kitchen as only the storefront is available to the public. Few seem to mind as the products are beyond reproach.
