Now that she has been kidnapped, it is clear that the Arcanum was not the only dupe!

Town Crier Rumors
- Town Crier tells you, "I heard of some new houses northwest of Zaikhal and in the far northeast of Osteth. With Spring on the way the weather should be pleasant there now."
- Town Crier tells you, "I can tell that Spring has come at last! Have you seen all the beautiful sunflowers growing in the meadows yet? I can't wait to pick some to decorate my house!"
- Town Crier tells you, "Something seems to be wrong with the Agents of the Arcanum. I've heard some nasty rumors about their leader. Did you know what she did to her most trusted advisor? Well, I'm not going to get in the middle of this."
- Town Crier tells you, "A traveller from the Plateau Village informed me he spotted some fine, new houses southeast of there. Abundant hunting in that locale. But are you the hunter or the hunted?"
- Town Crier tells you, "I bought a rumor at a tavern about a man who is trying to track down what happened to his older sister. He offers a reward. His name is Glysander Cartoth and he lives in Cragstone."
- Town Crier tells you, "My cousin said something about finding odd amulets from some creatures that he had been hunting... They look pretty useless. There is a Royal Guard outside of Lin guarding a warehouse though--he might know something about them."
- Town Crier tells you, "The Agents of the Arcanum have provided us with residential quarters for communal defense! Remember, there is safety in numbers! You can get to them through portals from the capitol towns of Zaikhal, Hebian-To and Cragstone."
- The Town Crier turns to you with an air of panic and starts to whisper hoarsely.
- Town Crier tells you, "Have you seen the statues lately? I was walking past one to my post this morning, and I could swear it looked as if it was getting ready to pounce! They've gone...bad...somehow..."
- Town Crier tells you, "The Arcanum promised they were there for our good! They said they were our reward!"
- The Town Crier looks ready to burst into tears.
- Town Crier tells you, "How could they have done this to us?"
- Town Crier tells you, "Wedding planners have joined the Arcanum Agents in the nine Nexus towns. All that you might want for the wedding of your dreams are now available in their inventories."
- Town Crier tells you, "Glysander Cartoth of Cragstone is looking for help in tracking down some letters that Elysa Strathelar wrote to his older sister. His sister is missing and he offers a reward."

Live Events
- The Arcanum Researcher turns to you with an air of efficiency and calm.
- Arcanum Researcher tells you, "I must give you a general debriefing of the statue affair as it stands. Nuhimidira was so fervent in her persuasion that the Arcanum, believing that they were for the people's good, allowed them to be presented to the town centers. Now that she has been kidnapped, it is clear that the Arcanum was not the only dupe! Nuhmidira has stopped the dreadful sacrifices that gave these abominations life...but it appears it is too late--now they have gained sentience, they have started to take sacrifices of their own!"
