Strange Metal-shod Bull Rampages Though Midtown
In another strange occurrence in our fair city, a massive metal bull went on a rampage through midtown late yesterday evening. Several dozen shops were damaged, some irreparably, and according to city officials speaking off the record, some entire buildings will need to be rebuilt. Gloria Findler, a local glassblower, arrived this morning to find every single item in her shop destroyed.
"At least I can melt down all the pieces and remake them into something still saleable. You should talk to Charlie down at Igman's Fine Pottery and China, this must be a waking nightmare for him. Hopefully they figure out what happened, between this and that crazy android the other day, things are getting weird around here.
Indeed, the two occurrences both featured metallic-based beings of one sort or another. Although the android issue was traced to corrosion damage altering its logic circuits, the true nature of the metal bull has not yet been identified as the creature escaped pursuit as it smashed its way out of town.
Given its sudden appearance and the lack of any eyewitnesses seeing it arrive in midtown, current theories suggest the beast came from underground. There had been rumours of noises coming from the sewers for several days before the incident. The Constabulary is currently investigating these leads.
Strange Starfall Startles Citizens
Over the course of three nights in the last week, lights were seen falling from the southern sky over the Raysco Range. Several scared citizens approached the Council of Barons during their session yesterday to seek answers. A representative of the council, under condition of anonymity, told the Gazette that the Council has sent a small team of scouts to determine if the event bears any consequence to the city or her citizens.
The spokesperson for the Council of Barons, Valory Telynride, has declined to make an official statement on the matter. Using some connections, we managed to contact a figure from the Dark Eternals known as a Dark Astologer, they gave no formal name, in the hopes that they could shed some light on the subject.
"Answers for the lights in the darkness? This I do not know. Answers from whence the darkness comes? This I can tell you and much... much... more."
This quote was delivered by messenger, our reporter has not yet returned.
Noxious Fumes Have Residents Fuming
Odorous fumes in several residential districts have forced nearly a dozen families from their homes. The smells seem to be emanating from the sewers in the area but have yet to be identified. Those affected have been treated in a triage centre set up in Daelon Park.
Main symptoms include nausea, vomiting, blurred vision and slurred speech. All affected residents are expected to make full recoveries. The cause of the fumes has not yet been located.
