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: Balthier, Gou Matsuoka, Masayuki Hori, Jason Bourne, Ike, Aqua.]
Resistance is a brewing
There have been reports of an underground ring in Everglade simply known at the Necromancy Gang. Posters have been going up and around Everglade simply saying 'Say yes to Necromancy.' No one knows who these people are or even their numbers, but it is known that they exist and are letting their thoughts be known. Maybe they'll be happy when Guardian elections come back around in a couple months time. Though one worries that things might get worse before then, who knows
Bouncy Cakes
A report of cakes that can bounce had been reported today at a Fayren bakery. When asked about how the cakes were made the chef who created them simply stated that it was a family secret. However this doesn't mean that people aren't trying to find out. Scientists have been trying hard to figure out what is within these delicious bouncy balls of fluff, but so far they have been unable to find the answer they so desperately want.

All who reported this wish to see her either brought to justice or a explanation of why this was going on..Although a few warn that it might be difficult to get to her.
(This is mainly in Everglade but can be used in other places as well as Flandre just ran when the fear took hold.)
