FIRES OF SPRING
Morning to Evending Thursday


FREE SKIP - Morning to Evening Thursday - Warm & Partly Cloudy till Evening - Dry night. Low Humidity Expected.





Fires of Spring



The Fire festival of Sol begins.

As the spring light begins, and life begins to return to the world, plants grow and the birds return.

An old tradition of Sol dating back to the founding of the city, the great fire where the spring is celebrated, burning the worries of the past and starting afresh. "In writing and casting them unto the flames of spring, let the light you be reborn anew"

Now it's grown, changed but the tradition remains down the generations of burning the past worries upon the spring fire. The great fire lighting up the sky at dusk, and declaring the start of spring and a new beginning for the city.

Cast off your worries and make a fresh start, explore the small stalls, historic reenactments and enjoy the atmosphere of the fair. Embrace old fashioned foods, historical accessories, stalls and all manner of oddities and intriguing items.

As always. Any questions or help required feel free to contact us in thread, PM or Discord.

City Hall faces Light Lane Resistance.

In the news of the potential demolition of Lightlane, the Run and several other areas in a major redevelopment of Sol City and businesses deals regarding a new sports team being established, the reaction of locals in the area has been less than welcoming.

A collective of business, private citizens and voluntary donations from various sources have started to put to together a case to challenge the decision and keep the bulldozers and wrecking balls away. "This city, this is one of the few areas where big businesses do not dominate, it's all families and local owned and run. The loss to the city's character would be immense.

My father worked hard to establish our restaurant, the Shawarma Palace food is genuine, and made with pride and care not just price per serving minimum cost. Sol City risks losing one of jewels, please help us protect Sol, and keep it open for everyone, big, small and independent. This is not just a building, or a sign with a name we can move. It's years of effort, hard times, good times and sacrifices to get this far.``
An emotional quote from Daniel Jackson, Owner of Shawarma Palace and retired Military consultant for the United States Air Force.

I got similar sentiments when I spoke to many businesses, somewhere afraid to talk openly, citing the involvement and rumored criminal connections of some of the project's backers.

We reached out to the people behind the proposal to redevelop the area however we got very little new information, that "All would be well compensated above market values" and "Everything is legal, and will be done as per the book down to the last permit. Rumors always exist. Our conduct will be of highest standard, as befitting our values and ethos."

So, where do you stand?
Let us know your opinions on the project, light lane and the cities desire to attract big business to Sol City. We will publish responses in a future edition if you give permission.

Sol City Vampire turned out to be false. Cult of Sangus disbands
Claims of Vampires in Sol City Unfounded. Expert study finds no cause for concern.




In less weighty events the Cult of Sangus have disbanded after the founder William Compton "Pointy" was caught attending a lunchtime Yoga class in Corona Park. While the Cult has a degree of suspension of disbelief, this event has caused a collapse in their membership.

I have been following this group for a few years now, their niche group has been at the center of some stranger events such as the protest over undead rights, blood banks equal rights and the garlic ban of 2017.

Right now Mr Compton was last seen fleeing the scene and boarding a flight to Sunnydale, Calafornia with I quote his rather jilted if a little deluded lover. "A Loony Toons skanky bitch with a British accent. (Redacted)... She turned up all blonde, short skirt draping all over him like some skanky blanket.". Her remaining comments were too colourful to print but she I suspect she might be a sailor in another life.

Finally to address the million blood drop question. No, there are no Vampires in Sol City. That was just a slightly strange goth who really needs some vitamin D. So stay safe, and enjoy the coming spring free knowing Sol is yet to attract the undead. Umbrella Corp please don't make me retract that claim.
(claim not valid for Sunnydale. We all know Calafornia is Crazy, Sunnydale takes the cake. High school there was like living over a hell portal!)

BONE raids - Crystal Skull recovered in South Side.

Bone, Bureau of Necromancy Experiments have mounted a dramatic raid in which several were detained and a Crystal Skull thought lost during a robbery in 1997 was recovered in Southside. The group where stated to be attempting to raise a goldfish named blinky and empower it to "lay waste to there foes like a godzilla on a rag"

BONE have stated there was no danger, and that the group were basically some rich bored and edgy teenagers acting up and their actions were unviable. No formal charges were filed but were warned that Necromancy without a federal General Residential Arcane Violations Exemptions, GRAVE was illegal, and further violation may risk registration on the Total Occupational Magic Ban, TOMB list.

Part of the combined international task force set up to keep the living living and dread dead, BONE works regularly alongside the Slayers Council, PYRE of Russia and GRIM who remit to protect the boundaries of living and dead are internationally empowered as part of the REAPER Convention of 2017.
