Date: Event Name: Description:
7/23/06 Loss of Faith A wave of disbelief has been sweeping through Valhalla these past few months, creating an unprecedented level of apathy and disregard for all things holy.  As a result, all deities, priests and mages are temporarily banished from the land.  Some experts have theorized that this is an after affect of the troubles last fall, known to many as "The Fall of Magic" while others have suggested something more permanent has happened and that all things magical are going to wither and die in Valhalla, never to return.  Only time will tell. 
(A  moratorium on repops is in effect until Sunday, August 6th)
10/31/05 VNN Special Report - "The Fall of Magic"  THE GRANDE FINALE?!
VIA Finally Successful!!!- The Valhalla Immigration Authority announced moments ago that they have successfully located the cause of the magical disruptions through out Valhalla and eliminated the problem, but not until a final burst of wild magical energies surged through Valhalla once again destroying spirits on a massive scale.  VIA initial reports are that virtually all mythical creatures, and magic based spirits have been destroyed.  An additional affect of this last event seems to have been an unexpected side affect of the magical process used to repair what was nothing less the a tear in the magical fabric of Valhalla.  The VIA states that the side affect seems to have targeted nearly all spirits that utilize ranged attacks.

VIA officials state that they will be working around the clock to speed up immigration to reinvigorate the Kingdoms of Valhalla and that all inhabitants need to be patient gusty a little longer as our world returns to it's normal rhythms.

 (Repop Moratorium through 11/21/05)

10/20/05 VNN Special Report - "The Fall of Magic" MAGIC DESTROYED!
All Magic Destroyed in Valhalla - Valhalla suffered yet another below this morning when all Magic type spirits suddenly disappeared from, Valhalla along with a majority of the Mythical creatures.  The VIA immediately went into crisis mode and has managed to entice some magical spirits back into the populations of Valhalla, but officials say it will be a long time before things return to normal, but that small kingdom populations should encourage additional spirits to migrate into the Kingdoms.

10/13/05 VNN Special Report - "The Fall of Magic" Decimates Spirit Populations again!
Worst Case of Disappearances to Date - Valhalla was once again struck by strange disappearances of spirits through the night.  VIA Officials stated that the initial reports indicate that ALL Deities, Priests, and Mages have disappeared from Valhalla.  Magical and Mythical spirits seem to have been hit hard as well, but there is no definite reporting as to how hard.  Fearing that the disappearances may be caused by some mythical or magical disease, the VIA has placed a 1 week restriction on large migrations into Valhalla.

(Repop Moratorium through 10/20/05)

10/8/05 VNN Special Report - "The Fall of Magic" Continues
Disappearances Reach Catastrophic Levels - Reports of spirits missing from kingdoms throughout Valhalla reached an all-time high last night.  The VIA refuse to make an official comments on just how much of the overall population has been destroyed, but some outside sources estimate that if the current pace of losses continues, nearly all Magic in Valhalla will be gone within 2 weeks time.
9/22/05 VNN Special Report - "The Fall of Magic"
Disappearances Continue Throughout Valhalla - Reports of widespread disappearances in Valhalla continue to pour in to the VIA offices.  There was a short respite while new spirits appeared in Valhalla shoring up flagging populations but the relief seems to have only been temporary.  There are theories abound about as to the cause of the disappearances, from the mundane to the extreme.  One of the wildest claims made suggests that the overuse of magic in Valhalla has caused a destabilization in the very fabric of magic which is causing the random appearance and disappearance of spirits with a magical nature.
9/16/05 VNN Special Report
Further Deaths and Disappearances reported in Valhalla. - More reports were received today about spirits disappearing throughout the Kingdoms of Valhalla.  Reports of large scale disappearance of Magical Spirits have been confirmed, especially those of the spell and mythical persuasion.  there have also been several confirmed reports of Deities, Priests, and Mages disappearing.  An unidentified source inside the VIA has revealed that the VIA are at a loss for what is happening, and have called in help from areas outside Valhalla to assist with the sudden drops in population.  Other sources have revealed that some of the more radical elements within the VIA have taken to calling these disappearances, the "Fall of Magic".
9/11/05 VNN Special Report
Valhalla News Network - Reports have been received from various regions over the past few weeks of seemingly random disappearance of spirits throughout the Kingdoms of Valhalla.  Although these reports are still as of yet unconfirmed, they have started to cause a stir among the citizens of Valhalla.  The VIA was contacted for their comments on this subject, but as of yet, there has been no official response.  Unidentified sources have stated that it is their impression that the VIA have no idea what may have happened.
7/4/05 Independence Day
Following in the age old tradition of slaves throughout history, the slaves of Valhalla stages a massive revolt this morning resulting in the all slaves gaining their freedom from the various populations.  in the process some of the infrastructure of the Kingdoms of Valhalla were damaged (10% loss of energy type spirits) and many of the slave masters were injured or killed (15% loss of Leader type spirits)
