1. New Releases:
SHOPS STOCK UP!
You asked for it... look for new arrivals in some of your favorite, most
frequented shops. Special goods available to our merchant's valued customers
are arriving shortly and will provide interesting shopping experiences! Might
be that certain something you've been waiting for!
IMPROVED CALTROPS!
Don't let critters step all over you -- set a few of the new and improved
caltrops around and experience a new kind of fighting freedom! The craftsmen
who supply caltrops for the merchants of Athens and the surrounding territories
have announced that they are now using a new method to forge caltrops. The
result is a much smaller trap that is easier to conceal in all terrains and
is much sharper, too. Supply may vary from town to town, so see your local
dealer.

2. The Grapevine:
AUTOLYCUS VANISHES!
The King of Thieves -- zapped into oblivion?! That's what we heard, anyway.
Autolycus, King of Thieves, was last seen at the Hero's Welcome, fondling
a glittering stone. Claiming it was a shard of the time-warping kronos stone,
Autolycus showed it off before quite the crowd. Then...Pooft!...he vanished
without a trace. Could he have gotten a head start in the search for the
missing crew vest from Renaissance Pictures? Only time will tell...

3. Premium News:
SPECIAL PERFORMANCE!
We're looking forward with bells on our toes to the arrival of none other
than the Widow Twanky herself! On June 12, the Widow will join Estate Successors
at their monthly Diamond Estate meeting to demonstrate the famous dance --
the Pandango! Be sure to bring your dancing shoes and Premium suggestions.
To keep up with all the latest Premium news, read the in-game GAZETTE.
