Welcome to the First Edition of The Revolutionary. Allow me to clear the air about this newsprint and everything contained within.
This newspaper is indeed printed by the New Syndicate, an organization founded in the aftermath of the Old Syndicate's disbanding. Elevans has, for all of our knowledge, abandoned our cause and vanished into Esshar. The raid upon the Old Syndicate's headquarters marked it's downfall, and most of the Underbosses and Enforcers were cut down by the Order, either then or in time. This has left myself, Rosalie Ar-Marno, as acting leader of the New Syndicate.
The New Syndicate is dedicated to the reconstruction of Sudbury's district, as well as the protection of it's people from the violence, corruption, and abuse of the Order, Nobility, and Church. Know that we have renounced the violent, terrorist ways of our predecessors, and are working within the law to expose those that would harm Osrona while maintaining positions of 'Justice'.

The New Syndicate would like to make it known to the public that there are still rogue elements of the Old Syndicate in operation. Any Anti-Knight or Terrorist Actions are being caused by these sects. If they cannot be brought into line, they will be captured and brought to justice.
Now then, without further ado!

The front page of the newspaper is slathered with a violent artist's rendition of Erika cos Salis, the woman in some sort of blood-frenzy.
It is with great shock that I find the first article that we bring to be one of such terror. Erika, of House Salis, both Noble and Knight, was arrested in the middle of Caelfall's beautiful park by at least a dozen knights, and stripped of her duties immediately, as she attempted to murder Aria cos Montclaire in broad daylight, even after others attempted to restrain her. Erika was successful in mutilating Aria, much to the horror of the citizens watching her. Many described her seemingly possessed by violence, having suffered some sort of mental snap that could only be satisfied by spilling her rival's blood on the ground. Aria was unable to even muster the strength to defend herself against the hidden cruelty and malice of Erika.
This incident is just one of many amongst the knights recent outbreak of violence, both in and outside of the city. The Order swears to protect the people of the city, and then those that make up it's army perform atrocious acts like what Erika has performed. It brings many to question if the Order bothers to question the mental state of those they recruit, or if they simply seek out the most powerful Magi that they can find in order to ensure their military strength over the public's safety.

War with Moonfall Looms on the Horizon
There is little doubt in anyone's mind left that mysterious Moonfall Village is indeed, ally to no one but the Demons it worships. The rumors you've heard are true. The Order has conducted deep investigations into the village, and has discovered that the tales of the occult, the murders of innocents, the torture and sacrifice of Knights - Every bit of it, proven fact. We strongly advise all peoples to avoid the area around the village, as no one can promise your safety from these wicked folk. With the most recent captures of Knights Jasper and Solon, the village sends a firm message that it does not care about Osrona's military might, and that it will continue to deal with the Dark Arts as it pleases.
War, at this point, seems inevitable. The safety of Osrona's people is at stake, and we are all aware that the existence of these people, if left alone, will sow the seeds of destruction across the entire continent. If the Order does not take action soon, how many more must die until they do?
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Cicero cos Mornaeu, Heir of his family's titles, has recently declared himself an enemy of any change in the government. He publicly stated that he does not care for the cries of the people, and that he'd rather preserve the current corrupt state of our politics than ensure the people of Sudbury be given livable conditions. It has become clear that certain nobles value power more than anything else, and don't mind hatred being thrown towards them should it mean they get to live in a comfortable manor while others sleep in the mud.
The Noble House of D'Arnette still continues to support and maintain the practices of Dark Arts. While they've registered these abilities with the Church, it seems largely a farce when they've been known to use Shadow and Blood magics in broad daylight without any form of restraint. The male heir of the house in particular has been known to brandish these techniques with refined prowess. Rumors continue to circulate that members of this house use the homeless of Sudbury as subject for human experimentation, however no hard evidence has been found. Rest assured, if it exists, we will find it.
Now then, without further ado!

Multiple reports have been filed by merchant caravans and civilians alike about recent violent actions from the Order. The statements all seem to claim that members of the Order harassed them, forcibly searched, assaulted, and even stole items. There have been no official statements as to whether these claims are being investigated.
