Sacred Stone Winter Solstice
(2007-12-15 - Site opens at 10 AM & Closes at 8 PM)
Sacred Stone
Good friends, on this day in the year 1547 in Venice Italy, you are cordially invited to join us for a wedding celebration! The well-to-do family has laid on an amazing day of festivities, highlighted by a feast guaranteed to delight, prepared by His Grace Duke Lucius Aurelius Valharic. Unfortunately, this happy day is destined to be marred by murder(s) most foul!
But this wedding is more than a stage play, and you dear friends are more than celebrants. We are counting on you to answer the age old questions “Whodunit?” and “why”? At the end of the afternoon, each guest will be asked to fill out a sheet of paper describing their interpretation of the mystery, and who the culprit(s) is(are). After evaluating the detectives’ work, the murderer(s) will be hauled off in chains to face the King’s Justice, and the detective who solved the crime most correctly will win a prize.
In addition to the wedding feast, we will have gaming in the morning and court dancing to celebrate the (we hope!) happy nuptials after the meal. The meal and murder will start promptly at 1 pm. Feast gear will be provided.
For dietary concerns, please contact His Grace at valharic@hotmail.com.
The Mistress of Murder is Viscountess Jeanmaire Ilaria Beatrice du Domremy. Attendance restrictions: Due to the focused nature of this event, attendance is limited to the first 80 gentles who pre-register. So, please plan to register quickly in order to reserve a space! Cost:
