The celebrations and activities of the Grand Tourney are in full swing. Nobles and common folks alike are entertained and delighted by the displays of skills and sportsmanship of the tournament participants, the food and drink is flowing, and the weather is holding steady at sunny and clear. Various groups and factions seem to have set their differences aside to enjoy the occasion.

More than one observer would say that the King's plan to smooth some political wrinkles is working... until today. 

The news spread quickly over the tournament grounds: the trade attaché from the Siregalese delegation was found murdered, along with the body of a servant. Theories, rumors, and gossip spread quickly. Archon Miriam has been heard blaming Wild Mages, whom she’s certain has infiltrated the event; others are not so sure.
