In the growing debate regarding Mayor Walkar and the uprising of angry citizens, many well known local merchants have also taken a stand on both sides of the argument.

To the surprise of many, the merchants Tykel, Dakris and even Larton signed the petition outside of Moot Hall. While Tykel refused to comment, Dakris did say the mayor's Jantalarian past played a role in his opposition, and Larton expressed his deep seeded hatred for orcs and questioned the mayor's decisions involving them.

On the other hand, many town merchants have now also openly expressed their support for Mayor Walkar.

Beldrin, the Gaming Hall owner replied, "Walkar captures the true spirit of this town. I don't care for the rumors. I judge the leader I see and I see a warrior who will die if necessary to defend our town, and of course keep gambling taxes low."

Brother Wuldreth, the cleric shop proprietor defended the mayor as well, saying, "Mayor Walkar, along with our courageous people, have stood up against the evil that has threatened this town. To sign a petition against Walkar is a slap in the face of our heroes and their sacrifice. I pray the shadows will be lifted from the eyes of the misguided sheep."

Even Edwina, Lartons' ex-wife threw her support behind the Mayor, "Larton's a fool for signing that petition. If we weren't divorced already, we'd be divorced now. I heard a rumor some citizens are putting together their own petition to keep Walkar? You tell me when and where, I'll be there to sign it."

Other merchants, such as Murdos, Aznell and Iron Jack confirmed they supported the mayor but would not add their names to any petition.

Due to the request of players, I will be setting up a pro-mayor petition outside of Thrak's Inn tonight, when I get home from work and able to log in. The petition can hold 100 names. I will add another petition if it gets full. Remember to READ the heading on the petition before you WRITE on the petition.

Happy signing!
