The following posted notices can be read at several locations in Upper. Many are on the sides of prominent buildings, and all are readily visible, though none are on the direct faces of highly travelled areas.

Citizens!

Let it be known that Councilperson Ivandur Reynolt, upon being confronted by five wretched drow outside of our gates, chose to negotiate with them and ask the vicious creatures about their terms!

The murderous dark elves were permitted to leave with their lives and with full knowledge of the location of Sanctuary. This happened despite their clear disadvantage in numbers, and without so much as a single assault ordered by Ivandur Reynolt!

Any with ears to hear need but ask a single of the numerous adventurers who witnessed this event!

Should unity through death be our slogan?

A symbol of a black hammer takes the place of a signature.

((Posters were put up in disguise at about 10 various locations in upper, with spoken emotes used to portray the event.))

Posted beneath one of the notices.

These allegations ring hollow without a name or face to back them. If you've the courage to do so, find me at the Watch House. I want a full report.

Citizens, do not let a coward's words sway your opinion. It is true, I did not challenge the Drow of Traensyr. I am a Councilor, not an individual, and as such, I must weigh my decisions carefully. The lives of this city are in our hands and it is not something I will take lightly, as the author of this slander might wish me to. If I were to attack the Drow, the lives of this city could very well be forfeit as Traensyr responds with a full army. Consider this.

The Drow do not seek war, if they did, we would be under siege this very moment.

Friends, ask yourselves; Will you believe the words of a man who does not sign his slander, or a man who admits what might be perceived as a fault by the selfish, and allows these notices to stand?

Let all view my actions and judge them for what they are. I will not forfeit the lives of our City if War can be averted. If the Drow think Sanctuary weak, let them infringe on our borders with more than an emmisary and see how deep our blades bite. Something they'll not dare.

Sincerely,

Ivandur Reynolt
