The Peering Eye

Bigany City Rumours

Branchill Mines
The mines are not new. They were prosperous generations ago, until the Dark Dwarves who occupy the mountains slaughtered the miners. The mines have been reopened because the massacre has been forgotten. Sign that the Dwarves are going to strike are already apparent - Humans are disappearing from the mines!
(The last statement is true, but it is the Aboleth who is the real cause of this).

Southern Continent
The race from the southern continent is actually related to the illithid species.

Dock troubles
The troubles down at the docks are the result of public disorder and lawlessness (the were-rats, the actual cause are dismissed as fantastic).

Thieves Guild Conspiracy
The guards and the thieves' guild are fabricating tall tales to protect their operations in a veil of misinformation.

Salacious Man Secret
Cayman Redman and The Salacious Man are rumoured to be related (they are not).
