Jul 7th There's some more rumbling coming from Cemetery, by popular demand, it's an archive of the lost Arthaus download: Van Richten's Guide to the Mists.

May 4th Presenting some odds 'n' ends, and some odd ends... Brother Joël has painstakingly compiled all known information on S, Azalin's plan for her, and its implications for the Dukkars, the Gentleman Caller, the ToUD, and the future of the Core. Perhaps as a direct result of this labor, Joël took a real life trip to the very creepy Lac Edouard Sanatorium, and shares his time there with us.

Apr 1st

It is with deepest regrets that I must announce that the long anticipated project, the Souragne Gazetteer, has been cancelled. As you are no doubt aware, the recent unpleasentness between members has elicited a storm of unacceptable behaviour. This has now culminated in our former member, David Gibson, withholding the master CD containing all informaton regarding the gazetteer. Mr. Gibson is now making a series of demands regarding control over the aforementioned document. Editor in chief of the document, Joël Paquin, has declined to respond to David's numberous emails, at least after April. It is our hope that our members can persaude Mr. Gibson to relinquish the information and allow us to publish the Gazetteer for the benefit of the community. In an effort to show both sides of the story, an in order to show we are not fools, please read the following communication from David.
