Stirges return
The scourge that was stirges has almost been forgotten but they have been sighted again in the mountainous regions around Sarbreenar. Travellers have been attacked in their camps as they slept and some travellers have woken up too feeble and drained of blood to move.
Watch out for dirty rust coloured creatures about a foot long with batlike wings and long pointed noses like quill pens.
It is claimed that some of these vermin now have an even more voracious appetite for blood and and are even more dangerous than was remembered. The High Council is considering reinstating a bounty of five Gold Lions for a stirge carcase but the Vermin Slayers Guild is protesting that it is their own exclusive right and perogative to deal with these menaces.
