Renowned Assassin Sieglinde: 'I serve you only'

Sieglinde has attained the title of Greatest Assassin for his professionalism and fame among ladies, for his bad-boy image characterized by his sharpened katar; a handsome man that lives a life of romantic loneliness. Recently this assassin-turned-celebrity has made a true confession with a smile on his face: he has been secretly going out with a lady, and they are planning to wed next year. The lady in question is known as Priestess M and she works in the Prontera church, but he refused to give us more information about his fiancée for the sake of her safety. As soon as the news spread, his female fans showed a negative reaction saying, 'This is ridiculous. Assassins must live alone under the shadows.' Hopefully the fans' reaction won't cause too much worry to Sieglinde and his soon-to-be wife.

Odin's Warning: A Secret Lab Reduced to Ashes

The smoke clouding the sky of Juno last night turned out to be from a secret laboratory set on fire.

Scientist Sion, the accident scene investigator, suspects from the remnants of machines inside that the laboratory must have been used to test biotechnology projects, and expressed his belief that the fire was the wrath of Odin, righteous punishment for trifling with His creations.
