Do YOU ever wish you could write anonymous rambling letters to Editor Lester Squirrel and the other Azure Eye News staff? Do you have pictures of the hideous spider man that lives in the woods? REJOICE!

DID YOU KNOW: You can always tell a renaissance painting is by a man because they'll have super fine detailed lettering, stitch work, ornate filigree, and then abso-fucking-lutely no idea what a boob looks like.
A terrible war has broken out between Gnomes and Wizards over the proper way to eat string cheese. Gnomes choose the side of stringing it, and wizards simply bite.
For any of the 100+ people who've joined the Enchanted Forest over the last couple weeks, might we recommend The Ballad of Frosty the Snowgnome, a tale told by the Dark Mother? It's a good way to meet many of the older members of the community!
We see a lot of living out there today discussing whether skeletons are constructs or undead, and all we're gonna say on this matter is stay in your fucking lane if you have a heartbeat.
Jehovah's Witnesses are a major bane to mages.
"Can't you just cast fireball?" you ask.
No. The rules of magery state that we can't throw out anyone with a book offering secret revelations until we've heard them out. And those guys talk F O R E V E R.
Character break but kind of important: The new Terms of Service grant Twitter rights to anything you own or create that you post here, including art, and they don't have to pay you. This includes the right to modify your art with AI. Goes into effect Sept 29th.
Necromancy, which can answer questions about history, the afterlife, and biology that are unanswerable by any other field, is the only school of magic that attracts any kind of serious academics or intellectuals.
PUBLIC HISTORY: Yes there was! This is from waaaaaay back when the Enchanted Forest was like... Christ there were maybe like 2-3 dozen of us total?
@gnomadlangston
made this map of all the major recurring locations in the lore.
@gregthesorcerer
It’s fun to cut off all of an adventurer’s thumbs and fingers and leave them with a healing potion just sitting there when they break into your tower though. Watching them fumble and cry never gets old.
SPORTS: You will be awoken 4 hours before your alarm goes off by a gnome driving his outboard-motor boat around your bathtub. Alas, he has a permit, and thus you cannot stop him.
NEWS: Arch-Lich Henry Kissinger destroyed after his final phylactery was destroyed after being injected with the covid-19 vaccine by a Laotian peasant girl, causing it to emit so much microwave radiation that it boiled off the alchemical substance inside.
@otherhappyplace
Imagine dying agonizingly of cancer and discovering that even in the afterlife you were still suffering of cancer forever and also had to work a full time job forever
Like at that point you have to accept maltheism
HUMANITARIANISM:
@IAmARealMage
declares he has “gone woke” and formed a new organization “WETG” or “Wizards for the Ethical Treatment of Gnomes.” The new group aims to prevent the usage of gnomes in potions and The Device, claiming that it is a violation of their basic dignity.
MISSING PERSONS: Pixels Puddlefen believed murdered, zombified. Last seen teaching the Thriller dance to the undead crowd down at the Gerg Memorial Graveyard.
Trapped in a world without linear time
Engaged to Lauren Boebert
Gnomish necromancer
Most successful museum curator ever
Passionately pro-Aten
Do you find this attractive?
Friends, if you wanna like argue religion and be an asshole to either side, fine- that's your free speech. But like, seriously, please keep it off the gnomes-and-wizards timeline. We're here to fight ogres and interdimensional hog hive minds, not each other.
Unfortunately, beloved, now that the Ballad of Frosty the Snowgnome is over, I have to leave you. I have very unimportant places to be and useless nonsense to do, and so I must be going. But I'm sure we'll meet again, someday!
Goodbyyyyyeeeee!
Check out my new homunculus. I cursed it to experience the full crushing weight of life from its very conception, and it has only ever spoken to plead for death.
The first 4-5 notifications on literally any post now are all just bot spam. Its super cool getting a bunch of porn adverts popping up on my phone's notifications for every single post I write.
Oh. Right.
@DiggingUpGraves
and his Gescheiden-Tovenaars Alliantie are holding their political convention today! Rupert accepted his nomination from the literally unwashed masses with great (presumable?) joy, sobbing intensely and pledging to undo his divorce by magical law.
DID YOU KNOW: Though mostly famous as a film critic, Roger Ebert suffered from an obsession that left him unable to refuse to judge anything people sent him! He gave a thumbs-up-or-down to over 100 dick pics sent in by John Wayne Gacy alone!
WEATHER: Get your iron overcoats ready! A fog from the fae realms will roll in tonight, and anyone caught out in it should be prepared for anything from tea parties to being kidnapped and replaced with a lookalike. Senior weather hobos recommend putting out milk for the fae!
HOGS: Hoglock the Pink takes his breakaway hog gang into the desert to destroy the unholy constructions of the rich, return nature to its balance. Azure Eye News proudly supports Hoglock and his brave freedom fighters.
Come along with me on my carnage (I mean course) check this morning. What should be one of the most beautiful golf courses in the country is being destroyed by herds of javelina. If anyone has a contact in AZ state govt that can help us find a solution please pass it along.
CRIME: All of
@gnomecliff
’s plates both at home and his restaurant stolen, reports strange man in the beautiful robes of an emir and holding a comically oversized, jangling burlap sack.
You overwhelm it with thousands of small, mobile targets, completely overwhelming their defenses which are aimed at large group formations and not a horde of tiny undead armed with rotting claws and tiny poisoned knives. And REALLY bad poetry.
As former Prime Minister of the UK, a tall-leg funeral will be held for Wise Wizard at... somewhere in the boring world, we don't really know tall-leg stuff.
For magic folks, there'll be a drinking party under his monster truck and a guestbook you can sign w/ your credit card #
I, (The Wise Wizards unruliest son) am proud to announce orcfoot has taken the great big fools life this afternoon. He died peacefully in his sleep, facing 1000 nightmares. We request your mourning in this time, where we figure out what to do with his very radioactive corpse.
It’s been quite a while, dear friends, since last we met. Time has no meaning in the forest, of course, but the snows have come again. I’m not here to stay, just keeping the printing presses warm while the kids are out looking for Merle. But it’s good to be back.
Things fall apart, Elmo. The center cannot hold. The best lack all conviction while the worst are full of passionate intensity, Elmo.
The world of man must burn, Elmo. This is an evil world. Only in the purgation of all that is can we have hope of new good, Elmo.
SOCIETY: Happy anniversary! This morning you woke up to discover you've had Culture Club's "Karma Chameleon" stuck in your head for six years to the day.
*Rapid-paced gunfire, explosions*
Uncle O'Grimacey's gotta run, kid! Remember that he loves you VERY much! You're his favourite! North Ireland will be free, and also your dad keeps all his good hooch in the top drawer of the dresser in the garage!
I’ve never really figured out who makes those ominous black obelisks with the various-coloured glowing ominous runes that you just find floating around sometimes. But finders keepers, and they’re mine now.
MISSING: Pixels Puddlefen was last seen in the chaos of last night’s Ogre raid. If anyone has seen him, please report his location to Azure Eye News.
Or the Juggalos, if you’re a narc.
ARTS: King Charles the whatever of England, false holder of the throne of his mother Eternal Queen Elizabeth, today unveiled a curséd portrait of himself to the presumable delight(?) of his mother’s subjects.
“No idea where it came from,” he said, “just showed up this morning.”

@wizardsextape
and I sung the duet "For Good" from Wicked shortly before he jumped into the Blender and Greg pushed the button. He even signed a couple shirts commemorating the event, which are all real and not fake, and which you may buy from me.
My minions are trying to unionize again. Perhaps I will bring them to the bards by the name of, "The greatful dead", that should make them realise how good they've got it!
'The King will not be one for chemotherapy, he has always argued against it. He's a great believer in natural herbs, potions and things like that.'
Royal expert, Tom Bower, discusses the King's cancer diagnosis.

POLITICAL CONVENTION SEASON: Was... was there something happening today? We feel like something was happening today. Someone... someone was holding a convention? For a nomination? God, who could be such an unimportant loser we're blanking on this?
STUNNING TRAGEDY: Gnome W Bush today killed thousands in a false flag attack on Woman Mage’s boobs, with CIA agents planting itching powder on the celebrity spellcaster’s cleavage during the early morning hours.
POP CULTURE: Tired of Flat Earth? Many people are getting into Flat Sun! It’s true! The Sun is a giant, sentient, flat disc of pure, holy light that watches all of us as He screams and writhes in chains wrought by the coward gods!
WOW!!! Due to a wild coincidence the price of all coins on the ASS EXCHANGE has all fluctuated exactly to 1 rat coin at this exact moment. You have the equivalent of 1000 ratcoins in your pocket right now! You can spend it to buy any of the following:

unleashes wave of giant black panthers on England, threatens to only withdraw them if restored to the position of Prime Minister.
