[!] A messenger sends out the invitations to each district of the Holy Orenian Empire.

 

After several years of undergoing construction, it is with great pleasure and honor that Lord Stahl-Elendil, Proprietor of Redenford, announces the formal opening and settling of residences within the municipality.

 

In honor of St. Thomas and the prosperity of the countryside, the Proprietor hereby extends a warm invitation to all citizens of the Holy Orenian Empire, to the first Grand Festival of Redenford. 

 

Take time to enjoy the booze and merriment as you set your eyes on the farms of the South.

THE MACE CATCHING

To honor the ancestry of Proprietor Lord Stahl-Elendil, a competition of mace catching will be held. Each participant will be given two opportunities to catch four toy maces. The person who catches the most will be the winner of the competition, and will be given a small mace-shaped locket by Lord Stahl-Elendil himself.

 

THE GRAND TOURNAMENT

During the short-lived rebellion of Sedan, many valiant heroes of the Empire defended this same small outpost under the mountains. In recognition of these warriors, Redenford will host a showcase of the Empire’s mightiest fighters. Participants will enter in groups of three as they spar in the town square, the denizens Redenford watching.

 

The winning group of this tournament will be titled as the Defenders of Redenford, prized with 20 minas each.

 

THE BOAT RACE

The River Reden, surrounding the small town, has served as a source of freshwater for the large expanse of numerous patches of farms of the municipality, connecting the lands of Cathalon and Rosemoor to Redenford.

 

As such, a boat race will be held, spanning from the front of Redenford, to the shore of Cathalon - but with a twist. Before the sailors embark on the race, they will have to drink two bottles of Armas whiskey beforehand. The winner of this race will be awarded with a statue on the edge of the docks.

 

It is hereby noted that any affiliating injuries caused by their participation is not held liable by the organizers of  this event. Race at your own discretion.

 

THE ARCHER’S TILT

Residents of Upper Petra are keenly known for their eyesight and sharp aim. In order to test one’s sharpness of aim, an archery competition will be held, where competitors will take three shots at a target.

 

The best scorer will be given the Silver Arrow of Redenford for their marksmanship, alongside a prize of 15 minas.

 

 

Signed,

Fr. Vinzant var Ruthern, Steward of Redenford

 

Lord Stahl-Elendil, Proprietor of Redenford

"Dazzling fineries, harvest a'plenty, succor in the form of sweetened wine, pride these folk of merry stock! Faith, love, bounty, the three tenants of the south, so learns this young prince!" Says Prince Robert upon hearing word of the upcoming festival in Redenford.

[Itz_Cookie 1974]

A young heiress looked up from a plate of cookies as the invitation reached her gaze within the County of Halstaig. An excited smile apearing on the girls face while vaugely reading over it. "I bet mama will let me and Auden go! Especially since its for grandpapa! " Lady Iduna chimed to herself prior to continuing to enjoy her treat!

"Huh." Says Ostromir, recalling his idea of a macecatching event for the Dobrov Festival. He scratches his head.
