Plague outbreak in Tyros
By Trenton Childs, Publisher and Editor of the Tyros Times
**************************************************
A joyous event nearly turned tragic last Monday when the newly appointed Ambassador of Tyros, Videtta Kiranov (who is also a reporter for the Tyros Times), fell ill and collapsed after her pledging ceremony to the Isle of Tyros. An impromptu celebration was held after the pledging at the outdoor cafe overlooking Tyros. It was there that Videtta collapsed.

At first it was suspected that perhaps bad mead had lead to her illness, however it was soon discovered to be something far worse. Videtta, who originally hails from the village of Green Cliffs, was showing signs of the horrible bazi plague that had run rampant through the streets of that village. The plague had grown so out of control there that the citizens of Green Cliffs felt their only option was to burn their village to the ground and rebuild.

Quickly Videtta was moved to the infirmary at the top of the city, and birds were sent looking for a Physician to treat her condition. Given the suspicion that she did have bazi plague, all her clothing was removed and burned, and her body was inspected for lice and fleas. We all waited with concern for a Physician to arrive. Though through the valiant efforts of Trisha Ireton, and the slaves of our Regent, gypsy and mae, they were able to lower Videtta’s fever and stabilize her.

Hulapop Mahoney, a Physician of Lara arrived to assess the situation. He soon confirmed our worst fears that Videtta was indeed suffering from the bazi plague. Using his impressive skills he was able to treat her condition. After her fever broke and the danger had passed, all that had helped Videtta had to destroy their clothing by fire, and bathe completely and thoroughly. Fortunately the Priest Kings smiled upon the Isle of Tyros and plague has not spread any further.

Videtta fully recovered and has assumed her new duties as one of the Ambassadors of Tyros. All of those of Tyros are reminded to keep things as clean as possible and to remove any pests or fleas immediately. The plague did not spread this time, but we all must be eternally vigilant so that the fate of Green Cliffs does not befall our homestone.

Assassination attempt at Port Kar
By Videtta Kiranov, Reporter for the Tyros Times
************************************************
The alarm bells rang in the early morning hours at Port Kar and an assassin climbed the outer walls entering the city. The warriors of Port Kar responded chasing down the member of the black caste but at a high cost as the first sword received a near fatal wound.
The physicians at the infirmary worked tirelessly attempting to save the mans life and in the end succeeded. They moved about the infirmary with a quiet efficiency that spoke volumes about how often this city is attacked.
Port Kar opens it gates to everyone, but surviving there is difficult. Pirate raids, assassins often plague and roam the streets. The dress for free women is very lax, and unlike Tyros, it remains a dangerous place. More from its own citizens than from any outside raider.

The trouble will continue for a long time as long as they continue to be a refuge for outlaws and pirates. Until then, it is an exciting city with merchants scurrying for their rooms and everyone keeping an eye on everything. With the clinic running a medical school because of the many wounded that come through their doors.

**************************************************
New Citizens pledge their allegiance to Tyros
By Trenton Childs, Publisher and Editor of the Tyros Times
**************************************************
A ceremony was held on Sunday to welcome the new citizens of the growing family of Tyros. The ceremony started with the inspiring words of the Head Scribe of Tyros, Emuna Zamani. With grace and flourish she spoke these words to all who attended, “This day is a joyous one for Tyros. The Swearing of Oaths is normally for the young man or woman that has come of age to take an oath upon themselves in the defense of the city and its inhabitants. It is rare that goreans swear to a new HomeStone. The loyalty is for life! But here, today we recognize those that lost their city to siege and those who have had to make the hard decision to separate from their families for a better life.

So today, we are young and the Tyros that looks to the future. For as we look upon the HomeStone that has been brought before us, we see more than just a stone. We see the ones that have made the pledge before us and the ones that will make after us. These are the people we share salt, bread and fire with . . . This is Tyros and as you follow the instructions of our leader and accept the laurel wreath, you are conferred as a true citizen of Tyros.” Emuna’s words spoke to the heart and soul of all there.
The Ubar of Tyros, the great Theodoric Delphis, spoke next. He spoke of Homestone, and what it means to Tyros, “To a Gorean, the homestone oath is the most sacred thing that can be done. There is nothing more meaningful there is no higher bond. Once taken it is never broken Do not take the oath lightly. Do so if you are ready to be a Tyrosean for the rest the days that the Priest Kings grant you. Where we stand is symbolic. Tyros has always been different and our homestone ceremony will follow on that vein. The security of Tyros is based on the fact that we are an island and that we are at the end of the world . Therefore it is appropriate that this very island is our homestone, This small stone is symbolic and I place it upon a lager rock. In truth all the rocks of Tyros are sacred.”

Many pledged that day. The list is long, and speaks to growing strength of Tyros. Those pledging that day were (in order of pledging): Ranger Flow Ambassador of Tyros, Elana Clarity, Vylixan Fallon Magistrate of Tyros, Izzabella Romano, Trenton Childs Historian of Tyros, Emuna Zamani Head Scribe of Tyros, Miranda Marjeta Ubara of Tyros, and Zmilla Rehula. All were welcomed with open arms by the Ubar as he said, “You are all now those who have sworn my brothers and sisters. I honor you all and cherish your commitment.”

Many words were spoken by those who pledged. They all spoke of their commitment to Tyros and their Brothers and Sisters. From those who newly arrived, such as myself, to the Ubara who helped build Tyros into the great Homestone that it is. All that spoke, spoke from their heart and soul.

**************************************************
Green Cliffs is being rebuilt
By Videtta Kiranov, Reporter for the Tyros Times
**************************************************
From the ashes of destruction and fire the village of Green Cliffs struggles to place their homestone. The building has just restarted led by Akita Osnomochi and Darki has begun. The buildings were all burned to the ground to stop the spread of fleas that had plagued the livestock and forest animals jumping to the human population.

Fredrick Carson, the village head man, took the homestone and the village burned and the villagers stood on a bluff watching as all of their possessions disappear in a puff of smoke.

In the following time, life for the village has not been easy, living in a cave in the wilds of Corcyrus Hills. But with the homestone in their possession, they have survived. The spirit of the tiny village lives on in the rebuilding of the houses, and who knows maybe they will soon return to their native lands. But for now the builders have started the surveying and clean up in anticipation of their return.

Tyros – Hunjer talks
By Trenton Childs, Publisher and Editor of the Tyros Times
**************************************************
Representatives from Hunjer traveled to the Isle of Tyros seeking trade and alliance. The distinguished dignitaries met with The Regent of Tyros, Galahad Huet. A banquet was held in their honor, and representatives of the various parts of Tyrosean society were in attendance, including this reporter.

A huge feast was served, and talks progressed. It was decided that many of Tyros would travel to Hunjer for a tour. When negotiations are final, and we can all proudly proclaim the Tyros – Hunjer alliance, a formal signing ceremony will be held in Hunjer. I look forward to traveling to Hunjer and reporting back on the splendors of it. All of Tyros look forward to welcoming those of Hunjer as Brothers and Sisters.

Position for assisting the Head Slaver
**************************************************
The Head Slaver of Isles of Tyros has allowed me to aid him in acquiring a "special" assistant for his administrative needs. Although the man is highly intelligent and has a substantial number of years experience, he just can't seem to find the time to learn to read.

This is where YOU come in. If you can read, write, aren't afraid to wrestle a captured panther to the ground to get her name so you can ultimately change it and can work in the worst of conditions, please contact myself, Emuna Zamani, so that I may set up an interview with the Head Slaver and Kennel Mistress *wonders if she should mention to any female applicants that he . . . Naaah. I'll let the whip find them*

COMMENTARY
A Gorean Free Woman’s Views
By Videtta Kiranov, Reporter for the Tyros Times
**************************************************
It has been a few weeks since I started the paper with Trenton Childs. And it has been an insightful and interesting experience. Many citizens have seen me moving around town in my robes of concealment along with Lady Trisha Ireton. We glide through the city covered from head to toe in our thick robes hidden from sight.

In a city that is known for allowing free women to go unveiled if they chose why would we choose full robes of concealment. We can go back to a very practical reason. Our beauty is our own. We conceal it for our safety. Why would a raider kidnapped us when it is unknown what our physical features are when they can kidnap a beautiful kajira whose charms are open and out there for anyone to see.

I remember to my first week here when Lady Heather had been kidnapped injured severely and left for dead on the docks. Would this have happened if she had been covered in our shapeless robes her hair bound up under her heavy veils that even shaded her eyes. If she had maintained the stoic discipline that is known to free women. It is a question to ponder.

Do we as Gorean’s want to put the cities most precious treasure’s, their free women of high caste in such jeopardy that they are easily targeted? Is the simple light veil that most free women wear enough to keep them safe, or just enough for custom? How would the streets of Gor look with free women clad in their caste colors covered from head to toe moving around stately and mysterious? Think about these questions as we strive to make Gor more Gor and watch the challenges that those fully concealed enjoy and the ease with which we can keep our secrets.

Kajira creative christmas contest

Tis the season of giving. Christmas is upon us. A wonderful feeling, chilly weather, snow on the ground...warm fires, rushing around gathering items, putting up decorations, creating a festive mood.

Everyone knowsa that a kajira cannot own anything. That doesn't mean that a kajira can't still give a gift, still can't show her love and devotion, to a Master, a Mistress, or to a fellow slave.

This contest is open to all, but is from the viewpoint of a slave. Using your creativity, submit a notecard detailing your idea....do you do extra chores? Have you written a poem? did you use your best silks to create a purse for your Mistress? Did you trade chores to someone, to get the items to create a rose-scent for their bathwater? Did you spend your time, to just make a lop-sided half-baked coffee mug?

There are so many things that can happen from the viewpoint of a slave...we were allowed some items from our Masters...or could find ways of getting them otherwise...show your creativity, and show how you would express your Holiday Spirit.

So, come to House of the Axe Gorean Market, and stop in the tavern building next to Treasured Lily Designs...look at the board for the current sponsors, and up-to-date prizes. Place your submission in the mailbox there. This can be in any format....perhaps you have written a story about it? Roleplayed it out with a sister? Written a poem about it? Use all of your creativity, to let us know...impress us!

If you speak another language, or know someone else who speaks another language, do not let this stop you (or them) from entering. I will ask for translations of any entries in other languages, I hope that ANYONE will enter.

Contest runs from Monday, 12/8, to Friday, 12/19. Announcements should be made by Sunday, 12/21. There will also be random awards from various merchants, awarded then.

There is a red box, marked "Letters to Santa". This is where you need to drop your notecard. Please write up your submission on there, and include a full-perm copy of your picture, and any items necessary (if you made an item for your Master, include a picture, or a full-perm copy of the item, if you want to give it to everyone. Did you sing a song? include a fullperm copy of the sound file). I will take these cards, and place them up on the board. Then you wil be up for vote!

There will be 3 ways to earn a prize. First, there will be a judgement of a panel of 5 judges (to be determined). With this, there will be prizes of 1st, 2d, and 3d place. 2d, there will be a popular vote contest. This contest will have 1st, 2d, and 3d places, also. The 3d will be a merchant's favorite. Those merchants that are located here in House of the Axe, and other merchants, may choose to sponsor a prize, choosing whom THEY feel was the best, most original, most heartfelt, quirky, written in their language...whatever they decide to base their decision on.

Please check the boards, to find out what the most current prizes are. Starting out, the prizes are:

5-judge panel:
$1000 - 1st
$500 - 2d
$300 - 3d

Popularity:
$500 - 1st
$300 - 2d
$200 - 3d
plus, will divide the $L earned with the popularity 50%, 30%, 20%

If you have any questions, please let kittyn fuhr know, and i will help you as soon as possible. To follow along with the contest, to see latest entries/etc, you can view http://sl-kccc.blogspot.com/

Happy Holidays!

SUICIDE OF THE DISHONORABLE BRAYDON PARX
By Trenton Childs, Publisher and Editor of the Tyros Times
*************************************************
Braydon Parx a member of the blue caste of Tyros committed suicide, the last dishonorable act in a trail of dishonor that started with the fraudulent filling of a doctored free companionship paper, and ended at the bottom of a cliff. The man, if one can call someone who acts with such dishonor a man, entered quickly into a free companionship with fellow scribe Barbi Sciarri. While we can debate the proper amount of time one should court before a companionship, no one can debate that falsifying documents and fraud is ever proper.

The crux of the fraud lay in the altering of key terms at the end of the contract. The Tyros Times acquired copies of the unaltered and altered documents. These excerpts show the fraud.

Actual Document:
“All properties of Both parties are to Be Held with in their respective rights of Ownership i.e property, houses ,apartments, slaves , gold ,silver, gems or jewels, shall be jointly owned.

~It is understood by both parties that Lady Barbi Sciarri will remain in Tyros with her companion Braydon Parx.”

Fraudulent Document:
“It is understood by both parties that Lady Barbi Sciarri will remain in Tyros with her companion Braydon Parx. The following terms have been established under the initiation of this Free Companionship contract, Lady Barbi is hearby forbidden to leave the gates of Tyros without the escort of her companion Sir B.Parx or by someone that has been given full permission and authority to take his companion from the city by Sir B.Parx. Any action that B.Sciarri takes part in that can be seen as unfaithful to her beloved Braydon Parx will result in direct punishment and a possible force collaring. Jointly owned properties include all of, except, Braydon Parx's; 1. Living Quarters, 2.Furniture, 3. Possible OffSpring, 4. Entire Wealth. All secrets must be revealed to Braydon Parx, any reason to believe that B.Sciarri is hiding something can result in a trial and if found guilty will result in serious consequences. Lastly, by entering this companionship both persons invloved promise to keep each other loved and protected as long as the companionship term is valid, unless one of the above terms which has been mentioned takes place, and therefore will result in further actions being taken by Sir Braydon Parx.”

The obvious fraud was caught by Galahad Huet the Regent of Tyros. When the despicable free man brought the scroll to the Regent for his seal, he thought the terms to be quite unusual, and sought out Barbi Sciarri to confirm she had read the document before signing it. She nearly fainted when she read the terms that were added to the scroll, after she had already signed it, according to the Regent. At that point this became a legal matter for the Magistrate of Tyros. The Magistrate found Braydon Parx guilty and ordered all his property to be seized and given to Barbi Sciarri. He was then stripped of his position and ordered to the service of the Ambassador of Tyros, Ranger Flow, for rehabilitation into the blue caste. It was a more then fair sentence. Once again, showing the even handed strength and justice of the city of Tyros.

Later that night, the dishonorable man took his life by jumping from a high place, but not before he dishonored himself yet again, by professing his love for another woman, and blaming all of Tyros for his dishonor. The end of a very undistinguished life, one that will only be remembered for dishonor. The Ubar and Regent of Tyros have ordered that Braydon Parx name must never be mentioned in the city limits of Tyros.

THE SOCIAL EVENT OF THE SEASON WILL BE HELD IN
GREEN CLIFFS
By Videtta Kiranov, Reporter for the Tyros Times
************************************************
The companionship ceremony of Sean Wiesel apprentice physician to Stormy Brunson physician of Green Cliffs is scheduled for this Sunday. Notices have been sent out and many dignitaries from all over Gor will be attending this event.

Tyros's own Foxxie Okina has been a tutor and a mentor to Stormy for awhile. Trenton Childs publisher of the Tyros Times will be performing the ceremony. Green Cliffs is part of Coccyrus which is an ally of Tyros, and Stormy sits on the council of Green cliffs.

This is a joyful event that all of Gor should celebrate with toasts and well wishes even if they are not able to attend. May the Priest Kings look favorably upon this union.

COWBOY IS CAPTURED
By Trenton Childs, Publisher and Editor of the Tyros Times
**************************************************
(Story still developing)
Cowboy Cooperstone, the Master of Arms of Tyros, was captured by panthers earlier today. Details are sketchy at the moment. The valiant warriors of Tyros have mounted an effort to free their captured comrade. All of Tyros wish our forces well as they move forward with their mission of honor. May the valiant forces of Tyros wipe out the panther scum and return Cowboy safely to the city that he serves so well.

(Update)
Cowboy Cooperstone has been freed and is now in the process of dealing with the panther scum that captured him. Our most sincere thanks go out to all the warriors of Tyros that defend us so well.

*************************************************
STRANGER IN THE CAVE
By Lady Barbi Sciarri, Reporter for the Tyros Times
*************************************************
As I was taking a walk near the river one evening under the three moons, I encountered a strange and frightening apparition. As he neared me, I could make out his appearance in the moonlight...he had long, shaggy hair and beard, was dirty and shirtless, and looked disoriented. I froze. He approached me, and my fear lessened as he related his story.

It seems he had woken up in our caves, unable to recall how he got there, and barely able to speak. He was hungry and weak. I took pity on the man, and at first suggested he obtain work in the vineyards, as it was honest work, and would quickly provide him nourishment. As I watched him, I realized he was quite muscular and had the build and look of a warrior. I had a better idea.

Since I have recently come into a large sum of money, I decided to help this unfortunate man, and offer him a position as my personal guard. He accepted, and I gave him a silver coin as a retainer. He promises to groom and dress himself properly, and be available to protect me when I travel, or take moonlit walks alone. Please welcome him (Minollo Menges.) He may not be able to speak much, but my instincts tell me this man was once a great warrior.

The Physicians Caste of Gor and the new Serum

Come to the disscussion 4SLT Sunday 12-8 in Port Verdenne on the latest of John Normans novel, Prize of Gor. Come hear how we now administer the drug.

"There has been a new development in the Stabilization Serums,” he said. “In this development, though there are dangers associated with it, and it is not always effective, it is often possible to reverse the typical aging process, to an earlier point, and then stabilize it at that point."

Midgaard/Rive Update

We have decided Midgaard and Rive will become seperate entities from CEC. There have been many disagreements and we feel it is time to go our own way. While we will not be physically pulling away, we WILL be running by our own laws and weapons lists from here out. We know there are many that enjoy large rp area but we do not feel we should fully give control of our sims over to people who do not have our own citizens best interests in mind.
