NEWSPAPER - BIWEEKLY EDITION
[Did you subscribe to The Genessia Tribune? Did you even remotely wish you had a newspaper or some other form of media to refer to for news, weather, and current events? Then you're in luck! There's a paperboy riding through the streets of Genessia flinging newspapers onto doorsteps or, if you're unlucky, through your window. Even remote locations in the other cities will still get a paper if one of the residents ever wanted one. The Paperboy is just that dedicated.]
[And if you're one of the following people, and you happen to subscribe to the newspaper, the Paperboy may or may not have flung the newspaper through that person's window, at the person, and/or broke something in the area: Izanami, Charlotte, Blake Belladonna, Zelos Wilder, Pascal, Patchouli Knowledge.]
Nova City Spookfest
With Halloween coming up next month, the Nova City movie theater “Megaplex Cineplex” will be playing horror movies all month in Theater 6.

A coupon will be included in the last paper of this month that you can use to get in half off, so if you have a hankering to see a movie with spooky Zombies, creepy Vampires or just any horror movie monster, then you will be able to satisfy that urge all month long!
See you there, readers!
Summer’s End Festival
With Summer coming to an end, citizens of Genessia City want to get together and send it out with a bad. There will be a Festival September 26th in Genessia City.

There will also be food of all kinds provided by people that wish to set up shop. So come and enjoy the final days of Summer with your fellow Genessians!
Fayren Crops
Farmers in Fayren are reporting that they are having an unusually great growing season this year. The reason for that isn’t known, but nothing nefarious or magical in nature is suspected to be behind this. Shops are reporting that prices for vegetables and fruit will be at an all time low this year just so they aren’t stuck with an excess of inventory! This is good news for fruit and vegetables loves. Fayren will be the place to get the best prices in the coming months!
