Through the eyes of a Ranger: Local whispers



Bill Ferny and the Squint-Eyed Southerner.

These are names that I have heard in passing as I venture the markets here in Bree, neither spoken kindly of.

A new name I have been hearing lately is of a man only know as the Squint-Eyed Southerner. This strange name I've only recently begun to hear from the whispers around town, speak of him as a strange looking man who has been spotted with Bill Ferny as of late. I've heard young women giggle as they claim this man to have been born of a goblin and raised in the swamps. I have not seen him myself but he must be horrid to look at if these are the words that describe him.

Some of the locals continue to curse the ruffians that have started to gather in the slums of town and Bill is the one who is often spotted with them, gives reason to believe he may be the one gathering them and now this Squint-Eyed Southerner?

I do not like the looks of this and I begin to worry for the locals. This may be far bigger than we first thought.

I will remain in Bree a while longer and see if any new rumors will rise that I can take back, will have to remember to restock in the market as well.
