Many of my fellow divinities have chosen not yet to make an appearance to mortals,
but today Raclawice, patron Goddess of Rogues and Wanderers, asked me to extend the
highway system a bit. So, while bemoaning the loss of the Aldar (which you
will read about when the mythology of Achaea is finished), I extended the
Prelatorian highway north across the Aureliana forest over to Lake Vundermere,
and then a bit south along the western edge of the Ithmia forest.
You will therefore find that you now have a more convenient way to travel
from the western Ithmia forest to Ashtan.

Raclawice (whose charms are, I can assure you, prodigious) also asked me
if I would have Rurin craft some backpacks for her favourite wanderers and
travellers to use, which I did. Thus, you will now find backpacks at a
very reasonable price in the Central Market of Ashtan.

To the delight of all of you, Rurin has also, it seems lowered his prices
on some of his items, including blank Tarot cards and elixirs.
Penned by my hand on the 12th of Valnuary, in the year 175 AF.
