Whether distractions or misdirection. The Tournaments have been held and the Codex, Faction histories and other items of history or lore have been published. They cannot be ignored and there should no room for complacency.
Similarly articles in The Herald that, at first sight appear innocuous, may hold important information. I may be wrong, but it seems to me that the method of communication between the GM's on the one hand and the gaming community on the other has changed and instead of direct updates we are now moving towards an unfolding narrative that reflects the world of Illyriad.

I am having trouble understanding the lore. Are you guys just making it up or is that what the system sent to you?

So basically, the humans rule and all the other races are treated as slaves and do all the work? I'm sure that'll go over well...

It is not the loyalty of the (so-called) Kings men that bothers me, but more their abilities.
A number of his elite soldiers came to serve in my capital, as reward for a large shipment of animal parts and I have watched these men closely.
In the training grounds, these men fight with an agression and agility that can rarely be matched by my greatest commanders. Yet above this I have been shocked by the speed at which they can move. They seem to glide across battle grounds with the speed of the wind.
These 'men' dressed in armour, can out run some of my finest cavalry, infact it is only my mounted commanders that have been able to keep up with them in a race.
Such speed and agility reminds me of stories I was told as a child, stories that my Grandfather told me of magical creatures called the Fae.
Could it be that this so called 'King of Illyriad' shares lineage with these creatures, or that his men of science have discovered the secrets of their magic.

Don't tell anyone but that's why we infiltraded the ranks of Sigurd's army. The blind King can't even see past his wife cleavage... Together we shall overthrow the pretender and create a new Kingdom, one where true Men rule, Dwarfs craft, Orcs hunt and Elfs do whatever it is they do...
