May your holiday be full of love, peace, and joy,

The Duke and Duchess of Valwyck have, within the spirit of the Tuvmas season upon us, decided to host a grand affair in the Duchy of Valwyck, building upon Haeseni traditions of yore. From St. Karlsburg to Karosgrad, those in the snowier parts of the realm have always utilised sleds as a method of transporting themselves around. 

 

Though, this shall be no traditional day of sledding, for this shall be no one other than a race. A snowy and icy track shall be constructed, with difficult hairpin turns, amicable apexes, and straights of immense speed, upon which those who desire to do so shall be given the chance to show their prowess atop a sled.

 

This affair shall take place in Tov and Yermey of 403 E.S., and for those who wishes not to be participate in the sled race itself, there shall be served traditional Ayrian Tuvmas drinks from the Baruch’s very own brewery, and for the romantics there’ll be a mistletoe for them to drag their partner under, as well as other cosy Tuvmas activities for old and young.

 

Trophies shall be handed out to the top three in the sled race, which they can take home and keep as a family heirloom until the end of days. Additionally, they shall be given a prize sum of 250 mina, 150 mina, and 100 mina, respectively.

His Grace, Eirik Baruch, Deputy Palatine of Hanseti-Ruska, Duke of Valwyck, Count of Ayr, Viscount of Voron, Baron of Gant, Laval, and Riveryn.

Her Royal Highness, Anastasya Isabel, Duchess of Karlsburg, Duchess-Consort of Valwyck.

Emma Karenina, having started an extensive training program for both her and Georgi the Corgi to take part, wiped a brow. As she completed her last round of star-jumps, the very floor beneath her seemed to shake. Outside her window, faint scraping could be heard... she peeked out. Teams of servants were constructing her very own mini ice-track, snaking around the Nikirala's courtyard! 

 

"Anastasya! ANA!" She cried, all sweaty, and beckoned her sister-in-law @shay to look. "Have vy got a SLED?"

The prettiest princess Anastasya, having spent the last month exclusively trying to avoid her sister-in-law following her declaration of her newfound love for baking would immediately make her return to the Duchy of Valwyck after hearing the beckon.
