The Search for Fact, Not Truth

• There's a longstanding rumor in Aveh that Noah Hawthorne is linked in some way to the character at the center of a dreadful series of books -- Jack Dove. They're horribly written things, borderline bodice-rippers, and so of course they sell like mad. Then again, recent rumor says that the character is based on one Vin Barrett, whose face lately graces the lurid covers. Who can say which is true?

• It wasn't more than a day after Noah arrived in eastern Ignas before the Mamma Mia riverboat casino sank straight to the bottom of a canyon river.

• He appears to have taken up traveling with a ferret he's taken to calling Lio (shortened from 'Imbroglio,' which is much to do with the circumstances of their first meeting). He never wanted a ferret, but he doesn't seem to have the heart to get rid of it after it was foisted on him -- on his face, specifically -- by a blonde in a tragic dress.

• There was an incident in the Starfall Saloon involving bees that he swears was not his fault.

• He's been telling a wild story about delving into the Grotto in Port Timney. He swears there was a blind tentacle-monster wielding a bearcat, and that the water that runs through the cavern is sentient and has an agenda. He also says he wasn't drunk at the time it happened and that he isn't drunk at the time of the retelling, either. Not many people believe him.
