[AP News] The Desert Winds was once a peaceful land, the populace had joined forces time and time again to keep attackers at bay and to work together hand in hand to earn the rank of Kingdom.

But now the excitement has worn off and the populaces of the Desert Winds have turned on each other. Similar to that of a bar room brawl, everyone has joined in – happily attacking their neighbors and breaking age old treaties. It is rumored that the new King Rico is behind the sudden greed of his subjects. Reportedly King Rico placed lands up for sale in a “silent action”, selling lands that rightfully belonged to his Duchys, Baronys and Shires. I have an inside source that claims King Rico even gave away lands. In an interview, concerned parties stated that they are “certain the funds are for padding the Kingdom coffers.”

The true terror of the matter is that King Rico opened the “silent action” land sales up to Kingdom outsiders. As I am reporting this, the land owner named Legion is marching on The River’s End Crown lands. No one seems to know who this ‘Legion’ is and if they do they are too fearful to report it the media. This just in: A source just reported that not only are the land owners attacking lands but there are now reports coming in that Orcs, gremlins and other beasts are surfacing within the Desert Winds.

Just in the past week five lands were attacked. Each of the land owners seems to be trying to increase their lands but to what end we are uncertain. Monarchy members have refused to comment on the situation. We are unsure if it is due to fear or that they too are part of the conspiracy.
