Hidden Mountain
The time is upon us for the great warriors of Atlantia to become familiar with our vast coastlines. Renew your spirit listening to the clashing of steal; renew your soul listening to the lapping sea upon the shore. Make your presence known! Allow your heraldic display to be seen by our enemies across the sea to warn them of the now well guarded Atlantian shores. Bring your small ones so they begin their training or help us find our misplaced treasure. Our populace has spent many weeks hunting so that we may have an abundance of pheasant and quail to satisfy the grandest of appetites along with other surprises. Remember your tankards and drums, for upon the setting of the sun grand merry making shall commence.
Martial Activities: Will include sea themed combat scenarios for heavy fighters and for the youth combatants. Archery and rapier will be available depending on availability of marshals and interest.
Arts & Sciences Activities: There are several A&S competitions scheduled throughout the day; prizes will be awarded during court. Topics will include: New Comer Baskets: Everything a newcomer would need for their first event should be included. There is a $ 25 maximum limit. Your price list is your documentation. These baskets will be donated to the Barony of Hidden Mountain to aid the Chatelaine’s in their quest to help our newest members feel welcome.
