* kinda want a subscription for Sand as well, but how you'll deliver to Tathaigh Isle I do not know.

So I'll rob from the cradle, and I'll rob from the grave; it's just human traffic, and I'm just a slave.

We shall call upon the Eagles!

We'll have to wait until trade relations are established between a kingdom of the mainland and Tathaigh that we can jump on.

It be more interesting if Tathaigh was more cut off from the world, aside from the occasional capsule filled with newspapers sent floating.

Odessa Nightingale / 27 / Avarrocka

As many of us will recall, for such matters tend to linger in the short-term memory of the people, the Vampyre Invasion of Misthalin in the early sixth age was a terrible ordeal for the general populace. No less for the royalty, who suffered even as greatly as many of their supporters. However, in these times of renewed prosperity, I believe it to be an important quest to look back and look upon those who were captured by the Invasion Force, mindful of their ordeal.

We should reach out to those fortunate, or unfortunate, few instead of ignoring their plight in the personal life by simply placing a statue to commemorate their suffering. After all, the statue will do nothing to help ease the difficulties the escapees are facing in their quest to readjust to a normal life after their experience.
My existence is debatable, but likely.

Please write an article about a topic of your choosing.

Those of us who have been following the recent political and military upheavals may have had a number of questions and concerns, mostly to do with the fate of the common man and the relations of the new grouping of kingdoms across what used to be a unified Kandarin and a disparate Asgarnia. Rightly, these questions are the first to be asked; but once the dust has cleared, we must ask other questions.

In the old tales, the story would end when the new king took the throne and lived happily ever after. But in the real world we must ask: how will these kingdoms survive? In particular, I am talking of cold, hard currency.

No merchant, tax man or tradesman can have failed to notice the recent dearth of new businesses. These businesses form the lion's share of many kingdoms' treasuries, but where are they? Avery Enterprises, once a welcome sight on any tax collector's ledger, has not been heard of for many months. The smiths of Ardougne, Falador and Varrock, world-renowned for their abilities, have gone quiet; their adverts and flyers have not been seen for a long while. Travelling traders do not advertise their routes, however much business it may drum up to do so, due to fear of opportunistic bandits and footpads. The trade routes between kingdoms, likewise, are quieter than they should be if prosperity is what's desired.

Will these new rulers invest time and money in new, budding entrepreneurs and artisans? Or are we on the cusp of a return to the dark old days, where tyrants like the dreaded Garth Downey funded their economies through an irresistible process of conquest and exploitation of seized resources? I believe we all hope for the former, but if something does not change soon, I fear for the fate of us all should the latter come to pass.
One man's trash is another's treasure, and one man's cash buys another's pleasure.
So I'll rob from the cradle, and I'll rob from the grave; it's just human traffic, and I'm just a slave.

Both accepted - Welcome back! I'll be contacting you as soon as I can to get you both settled.

Just noticed that in the staff app it doesn't ask what you're applying for. Doh.


Sorry for the lack of updates on my part, this week has been more busy than I expected!

So, there'll be some updated tomorrow for y'all.

Firstly, I'd like to apologize for my lack of organisation this week.
The Gielinor Times is back permanently
, I've just been super busy at the start of this week with college and everything.

*
Next publication?
Sunday
.

The staff app will be changing with the addition of an 'Applying For?' slot.

We'll be taking
guest contributors
who will be
paid
for a successful submission soon!

Competitions will be added to the next issue with
huge cash prizes
.

Details on the
staff payment
scheme and other finance details will be published soon via the thread.

'But there isn't a task list!' I head you cry. Because of my poor organisation this week - I wont make staff submit articles with such short notice. If you have one, great! Feel free to pass it over and I'll edit + publish it. But a task list will come soon for issue 27.
