To the citizens of Hanseti-Ruska and honourable invitees below, In celebration of Their Majesties, King Sigismund III and Queen Emma Karenina’s tour of vassalage, House Baruch graciously announces their festival of Ayr and invites the people of Hanseti-Ruska to partake in the Aryian culture. A series of revelries and entertainment that take influence from historic traditions will be basked in on the Saint’s Day. I. PERFORMANCES & TRADES To begin the festivities, those in attendance are asked to gather by the Lake Voron docks, where they will be greeted with stalls displaying traditional Ayrian crafts and goods, allowing for guests to indulge in the delectable dishes whilst learning about the culture of Valwyck. Alongside getting to know about the Ayrian lifestyle, there will be opportunities to purchase a sketch by the Duchy's local artist for a small fee, or to watch and request as the resident jester performs stunts. II. ANGLER’S CONTEST All prospective fishermen will gather on the banks of Lake Voron, where they shall cast their lines and fish for exactly five Saint’s Minutes. He who gathers the most fish by the end of this period will be awarded a purse of 100 minae. Any who wish to participate are encouraged to bring their own rods, though the House of Baruch shall supply them if needed. III. BOAT RACING After the angler’s contest draws to its close, a boat race shall be held on the waters of Lake Voron. Competitors will begin at the docks of Lallybroch before setting off on three laps around the designated course. Teams will consist of two men per boat, in which one will row, while the other shall fire blunted arrows to disrupt their opponents. The team which first completes their rounds shall be awarded a purse of 100 minae, split evenly between them. IV. TRIVIA OF HAENSE The night will conclude with a game of trivia, once more hosted at the docks. The questions will centre around the history of Haenseti-Ruska, as well as the Ayrian people and House Baruch. The winner of this contest shall receive a fine horse, bred and reared by the Duke’s finest Ayrian stablehands.
