FRIEDEN UND SEGEN,

 

The Principality hereby invites the United Kingdom of Aaun and its friends, from noble to common man to participate in the Merryweather Pie Day. All are invited to Apfelberg to participate. As we have more than entered the summer, many fruits and vegetables have already ripened, ready to be put to use! What other way than to participate in a celebration of summer, harvest and of course pie!

The day shall begin in the newly constructed fairgrounds, where farmers and merchants may peddle their wares. Some time after the event has begun, once people have arrived the pie day begins in earnest. 

 

The first event on the list is naturally; how to make a pie. Mister Berthold will call upon the pie day-goers and give everyone a crash course in pie making. These pies may be used for the other festivity on the list!

 

The second event is the pie eating contest! Aspiring-contestants will have to purchase a pie for a mere five marks (also the entry fee that goes into the prize pool), once entered into the contest, one must compete with two others, the fastest pie-eater wins. Contestants will compete against one another until there is only one competitor left! The winner takes half of the prize money!

 

The second competition is that of the best or most unusual pie! Competitors either have made the pies prior to the festival or make them during it, for example at the crash course. Each pie is carefully examined; first it is looked at, smelled and finally tasted by three judges. The best pie-maker in the kingdom wins a golden pie trophy and a bag of minae! The second best a silver pie and the third best a bronze trophy - A badge of honor, for who else can claim to have made the best pies ever?
