The Serenade Chronicle is a major daily newspaper published in Serenade, with superregional circulation. Readers in the northern and central reaches of Illuminatia consider The Chronicle a newspaper-of-record for news originating from the greater Serenade metropolitan area and throughout the Anglo-Russo-Hungarian Megalopolitan Complex.
The Chronicle publishes three editions: a local edition for readers in the greater Serenade metropolitan area, which nets a circulation of 1,589,100; a regional edition for the greater megalopolitan complex with a circulation of 1,120,000; and a "Territorial Edition" drawing a circulation of 495,000, catered to readers in a super-region roughly defined by the Transilluminatian Range to the west, the Lucidian Range to the east, and the Adamopolitan River valley and its tributaries to the south.
The Territorial Edition of The Chronical carries news of importance and interest to the greater region, including top stories from places around the super-region as well as developments out of Serenade that have regional implications. As the region's dominant economic and trade center, the political and economic stories originating out of Serenade are of interest to readers throughout this portion of the continent.

Within the megalopolitan complex, The Chronicle faces spirited competition from fellow local dailies, Serenade Tomorrow and Serenade Yesterday.
