The Lost Cities News
On this edition of the Lost Cities News we bring exciting news of who will be the new Councillor! I know everyone has been super (super...) upset that Alina stepped down. But remember to be supportive of her decision!
And now... for the big reveal...
Lady Zillah!
I've heard people say she shouldn't be trusted because she's a shade... but come on, she's worked as a teacher at Foxfire! I think she has the qualifications needed to excel as a great leader of the Lost Cities. Her speech really moved me to be a huge fan and she will certainly make the necessary decisions to make the Losr Cities a better place!

That Councillor Election party sure was something! You should have seen what Alina was wearing! It knocked everyone's stars off. In fact, we even got an interview with Alina before she left.
"Hey, Alina, do you mind if I ask you a few questions for The Daily Atlantis Post?"
"Sure thing!"
"First off... where did you get those earrings? They are dazzling! The way they shine in the light!"
"Ah! They were a gift from my mother. I would have to ask her, she has the best taste you know."
"I'm sure she does."
Alina rambled on for a while about fashion, then she glanced at her watch and said she was late for something. So I unfortunately didn't get to ask her for anything else.
Recently there have been whispers of shadowy figures skulking around the Lost Cities... some even say they're Neverseen members! Remember to stay safe out there everyone and stay tuned.
Why did we have a department for this again? It's not like anyone even buys our newspapers anyway... nor would we ever be so stupid to reveal our plans to the public. Unlike the Black Swan with their ridiculously named Swan Lake Observer.

To everyone sending us mail asking us if we have lost against the Neverseen again: no we didn't, and we didn't lose a secret hideout either. I don't even know how a rumor like that even started. We will neither confirm nor deny if Sophie Foster is alive. Yes, we have plans for the future. No, we will not tell you.
In the meantime, stay observant, learn new skills, and if you're really so bored that you feel compelled to spam us with mail twenty times in one week (you know who you are) then have fun solving this word search.

"Hmm..." Mr. Forkle sighed as he placed the papers down on his rather messy desk. "Kids these days don't know how to write proper newspapers."
"Says the one with the world's messiest desk," Physic snickered as Forkle sighed and shoved an assortment of pens into drawers and other bits and bobs.
"I didn't leave it like this."
"Yeah, sure you didn't..."
Mr. Forkle rotated his chair towards her. "What did you just say?"
Physic stepped away. "I said when are you going to have that talk with Oralie?"
Mr. Forkle started clicking a pen he found on his desk. "Yeah... about that... I was thinking Sophie should do it."
"Why not just do it yourself?" Physic said, in a completely deadpan tone.
He stopped clicking the pen. "Maybe you'd rather tell her instead?"
"..." She said nothing, her eyes darting elsewhere.
"That's what I thought," Mr. Forkle said, his desk now semi organized again.
