2058 AC - A New Era.

A couple years has passed since the eruption of the volcano that Vdallion once stood upon- with little seemingly changing with The Gutter, until... very recently.

With blood caking her form, and an expression that can only be described as hollow, The Queen of The Gutter makes a public statement.

"My old mentor- the former Queen Fist has been murdered - by my own flesh and blood no less... Lila Woodes."
"This marks a new age for The Gutter. With her demise marks the end of inaction for my people."
"Her misery shall be repayed in full."

What this could mean is relatively unclear- however, it could be noted that there was now a large amount of hustle and bustle amidst the fortress.
... Needless to say, The Queen is angry.

---

• Rumor has it that The Queen was seen wandering within the gutter caked from head to toe in blood soon after her speech, perhaps having made good on her word.
  
  
• Scouts and various passer-bys will note that The Gutter is unusually active.
  
  
• Following Fist's demise- The Queen has ceased all contact with outside cities, bar a select few.
  
  
• Rumor has it that The Queen's stance on the Occult has marginably shifted- with The Gutter remaining as the home for those without a home as it once was.
