    after our recent success in developing the marvelous new hand-disentigrator, I am pround to announce a new project.
    The new project is one of very massive importance as it deals with the current lack of good/durable, portable power sources. As many good folks of Arcanum have not failed to notice, Their electrical lights, require charges, as does the hand-disentigrator. It's only difference lies with the ammount, our product requires an ample amount of charges, often it's not really possible to be in possesion of quite a large amount, as the standard charges are heavy and come with a long price tag. Well, your troubles are over! We, at The House Of Lords, are now in progress of bringing you a cheaper, more efficient, and alot more less bulky way of portable charges. Unfortunetly our new technological marvel is still in development so I cannot say further at the moment, But have no fear, soon, charges will no longer be any problem. This will truly revolutionise the industry. I will bring you Good Folks of Arcanum upto date when It the project is finished.
    Oh my GOD! That man! Stop That man! He's a MAGE! Get him out of here! What is he doing here!? Security, escort that man to the gate!
    Uhm, Sorry about that Folks, We had a bit of an ancident with another of those unwashed brute mages. Can't be too careful with them.
    Thank you all and have a good day.

    As a FORMER user of the now infamous hand-disintegrator, I must protest at letting these maniacs operate within our city.

    Okay, the hand-disintegrator works. It does what it says. As of 5 minutes after opening the box - which was a gift from my dear sister, by the way - I am one-handed!

    I want to know what kind of safeguards are in place to prevent these maniacs releasing dangerous products onto the market. Surely we need a system of regulation and licensing?

    I'd feel much safer if I knew there was a bureacratic system, with the requisite levels of paperwork and form-filling, between me and the next crazy gimcrack or geegaw!

    I urge you all - write to your government representative demanding action before YOU lose extremities.

    If the government won't protect us, let's storm the workshops of these 'mad professors' and drive them and their abominations from our city!

    Dear Sir,
    I have received your letter, and I have to say I am indeed sorry for your loss, however there is lot to be discussed.
    1. The disentigrator is hald held, it does not disentigrate your hand, it is only a minor adjustment in our publishing section.
    Secondly it is only designed to affect those of high magical aptitude, only to be used by those of high technological background. Within your package there should be a safety manual aswell as first step instruction. If you my good Sir would take your time reading it, and following the steps stated in those two manuals your tragedy if it even accured, would never take place. I suggest you spend more time with books rather than playing foolish games with your mage sister. thus proving you a phony. I suggest you withdraw your false accusasions or explain you will have to explain it all to the constable.
    Have a nice day and thank you for your support
    Travis Wittaker
    Director of the House Of Lords

    *fumbles awkwardly in hip pocket and pulls out a book of matches*

    Here, take one of these. I'd light it for you but, well ... *nods towards stump*

    I assume you're here for the protest? No right-thinking gentelman would let these maniacs continue, after all.

    Out with the nutty prof's, I say! Let's introduce 'em to the toes of our boots.

    Sad news reaches us today. Travis Wittaker at the house of lords, currently, is on a leave. He ledt this statemnet:
    Dear coworkers

    I was recently saw some adventurers pass by. I could not resist, I thought I could settle for a life of science and research. But alas my adventure craving blood got the best of me. I am off to pursue those adventurers in hopes they are pursuing a dangerous quest. What's better, they could use a fearless gunsighter like me. I leave the projects future in your hands. Please do not look for me, I will return when the time is right.

    Sincerly yours Travis Wittaker

    I announce that the house of lords will continue to be operational. And we will not stop to bring the latest technological inquires to the light of day in the Tarantian society.
    Travis Wittaker, Me and my comrades wish you the very best of luck on your journey
