Dear citizens,

The colours of Bane are indeed black and green. They have always been. Never were they red and black, either before the Time or Troubles nor afterward.

Also, the 'battle' fought between Torm and Bane was not at Waterdeep. It was in the harbour of Tantras, many miles distant from any villa there. For the record, Torm stabbed Bane in the back with a magical dagger before the battle, which sapped His strength. That is why He did not prevail. The acts of the gods are indicative of their followers, leaving much to be desired in regard to Tormtars.

Such is His power, though, that he has indeed conquered Death itself, and is newly returned to us.

Of course, the faithful of Bane wish cordial relations with the mighty Spellguard, and we will at all turns render our aid, should they ask of it. They need but call, as we are here for the city.

If any Banites are indeed wearing red and black, I ask that you immediately change to the rightful colours, and then contact me at the Crone.

Praetorius
