VINEWARD'S BOUNTY

[milkyi 1987]

 

On the 8th day of  Horen’s Calling of 1938

 

 

TO FELLOW PEERS, LOYAL SUBJECTS, AND ALLIES,

 

The Vineward's Bounty, an ode to the noble grape, emerges as the fallow's vines relinquish their abundant fruits. The denizens of Adria, entwined with the earth, labour to press concord grapes into wines of distinction and variety. A clarion call beckons all to partake in the harvest's bountiful yield, wherein wine-tasting orchestrates a spectrum of tastes, accompanied by sumptuous grape pies, tarts, jams, jellies, and locally-sourced honey, each serving as a testament to the marriage between soil and soul. 

 

The sounds of joy resound over time-honoured drinking games, weaving bonds of fellowship. Guided by the seasoned hands of the Sarkozic women, the gathering delves into the artistic realm of wine-stained portraiture. Those hailing from distant lands are welcomed with arms wide open and hearts akin to chalices, their offerings of wines intertwining their cultural threads with those of the Adriafolk atop the lofty Eagle's Peak.
