She presides over the bar with an air of aggrieved wistfulness. She's one of the few people in the Locks not affiliated with the Guild – she may be a source of less partial gossip.

The description varies based on your level of 
Rumours in Jericho.
| Rumours | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 - 9 | She's heard of silver-spurred hunters in the night, riding west. A battle in a forest not far from the canals. No survivors, but the canals ran red this morning. |
| 10 - 19 | There's tell of a bargeman lost somewhere near the Persephone. The funeral was yesterday: seven fiddlers sailed with the empty coffin to the falls. |
| 20 - 28 (29?) | News from London has the senior gondoliers in a terrible mood. Visits to the city are being curtailed, shifts extended by months. The Masters hedge their bets on the new railroads. |
| 30 - 39 | The Nostalgic Landlady is in good spirits. A bargeman came in who'd studied at Aberdeen. He discoursed with her on the Romantics well into the night. |
| 41 - 49 | Rumour has it that the waters around a confluence upriver grow ever more unwholesome. The Gonfalionere has left instruction to purge the canals, but it never seems to stop the poison currents from spreading. |
| 50 - 59 | One of Hell's agents came to stay at the pub recently. She was very interested in the faces on the gates of the Locks. She would not be drawn on the purpose of her visit, but witnesses say they saw her chipping at the metal with a device. |
| 60 - 69 | The Nostalgic Landlady is groggy today. Everyone in the Locks was assailed by vivid dreams last night. Roses falling, a feast of songs. They were celebrating something – something like a return. |
| 72 (70?) - 79 | She's heard that a lonesome viol was heard in the westward canals. […] gondoliers went to investigate but found nothing but an empty barge, rotten by years on the water. Whispers speak of ghosts sailing the canals in the dead watches of the night. |
| 80 - 85 (89?) | There was a brightness on the horizon this morning. A radiance from Hell? Or some new technology tested on the borders. The Guild grows watchful. |
| 90 - 99 | The canals ran red this morning. Something blocks their course further upriver. A Doleful Poleman has taken a flotilla of bargemen to ferret it out. |
| 100 | Horns sounded in the night, golden and loud as churchbells. Watchmen say they saw movements in the western forests, shadows that slipped away as devils entered the woods in pursuit. |
