Rumors
Slim Ostren will share a rumor for 10 Councils.
“Did I ever tell you I was kicked out of the bard college for playing too much?
Long story short: if you want to do the Full-Day-Performance Challenge, you shouldn't do it within earshot of the dean's office.
I mean, he did give me two warnings, but THREE warnings is the standard amount.
“I never graduated from the bard college, but at least I didn't get killed by the initiation process! I just had to perform a song. I've heard they replaced it with a combat initiation. And that several students have been seriously injured, and one killed. But you'll never find proof of that. Dean Leon is too smart for that.
“The latest news from the bard college is that they hired a fairy as a teacher. Supposedly her music is amazing, but the REAL reason they hired her is to get her engineering help with a special teleportation machine.
“You know the bard college's secretary, Rebeccah? She was a star pupil who went on some famous adventures after she graduated. But she lost her voice fighting a Councilmember! The foolish woman!
The bard school took pity on her and gave her a job after that. Or did she have the job before she lost her voice? I can't remember. But either way, she showed poor judgement fighting a Council wizard. I'm not sure why they trust her to be an administrator of any kind!
“I heard a great rumor about the bard college that really shows how they've fallen on hard times. There used to be a dance-analysis golem in the basement as part of the initiation test. That golem was repurposed, but its old analysis eye was struck in a pot down there. If you dance for the eye, it does something.
“It's just a fact that the bard college has never vocally renounced Denton Razor. You know, the famous thief of Vidaria? Yeah! He spent a decade in schools before becoming a thief. He graduated from the bard school, among others, and nobody's renounced him.
They obviously can't take their knowledge back, but they could strike his name from the list of graduates, right? Is it so much to ask that the bard school not promote vigilantism?
“I hear that old Ormond -- you know, Ormond Neth at the college? He's infatuated with the new fairy girl they hired.
I mean, good for him, I guess! I always thought he was gay! But it turns out he's just a ... what's the derogatory phrase for it? I guess I'll have to make up my own. He's a butterflapper! No, that's awful. He's a bugfucker? No, not clever. He's a nectarlicker? ...eugh. Let me ponder this one.
But it says something that I'm not sure which is more shameful in the eyes of the public: wanting to shag another man, or wanting to shag an entirely different species.
Who am I kidding? Shagging another man is definitely more shameful.

Conversations
“Have you tried a kettle of the black? Only for those who know the secret tune, eh?
“Ah, the Bard College days! I may not have graduated, but I certainly made my mark.
“(Slim smiles thinly)
Sometimes you need to learn a few tunes before you get to hear the secrets of the stage. If you catch me.
“They say the Duke of Flapbule flies in every full moon, just to check out the new tunes.
“Jenny took the night off. She loves to go on nature outings while the moon is full, so it's easier to hike at night. She hikes pretty far, too! She'll probably have some new stories when she gets back.— Slim Ostren (Full Moon)
