The Illithid Threat

[posted around the city]

Is your neighbour behaving strangely? Are your acquaintances doing things they would have never done? Do you see people staring with vacant eyes, moving mechanically and unnaturally?

Even those we trust most might falter and let the illithids seize their minds to further their nebulous schemes. Stay vigilant to any of these outward signs and inform the Society of the Ordered Mind immediately so that the threat can be countered efficiently before great harm is wrought.

Do not let them know about your suspicion, lest they direct their attention toward you.

A handprint, made evidently by soaking one's hand in shit is over a few of the notices especially those near the pump house.

The words, "The truth is buried in shit." is beneath it.

*Neatly tacked below the origional note is an additional few lines. These are only found on notices displayed in the upper sanctuary areas*

Suspect individuals may be dangerous if provoked. Stay with them at all times until a watchman or spellguard agent can be summoned to detain the individuals and assess the problem. Do not let them out of your sight as they may disappear into the darkness once more. Pay careful attention to anything that is being said as it may help current investigations.

Keep in mind Citizens, stay vigilant and all threats to our shared home shall be squashed at birth or even before. Sanctuary's greatest weapon is cooperation and the immense skills and powers our Citizens hold. Not everyone is able to escape or avoid captivity or death by the creatures that inhabit these foul caverns and those that can are the best the whole of Toril has to offer, you, our Citizens.

The chances that these abherrations can weave their magics within Sanctuary without the Spellguard knowing of it is slim but if it should happen then your assistance is needed. If your neighbour is acting strangely you should ofcourse report it immediately to your nearest Spellguard and the matter shall be taken care of.

You are what keeps Sanctuary what it is and will continue to do so throughout the time we will stay here, the Spellguard were founded to keep you all safe from the magic the abherrations and other creatures that surround us use. We have done so with vigilance and masterful perfection since our foundation and will continue to do so until the end of our times here.

The Society of the Ordered Mind hardly have the capabilities the Spellguard have to protect you from these creatures.
