Well m'Lady has informed me that we are going to go to Northshield for Quest for Camelot.
First off any of yall gonna be there?
and more significantly, anything done differently as far as heavy fighting is concerned? Customs or traditions that are different from what we do here in Artemisia that I might need to be aware of?
I am lookin forward to a fun event and really hope to be able to meet some of yall there

I'll be there, however I don't fight heavy. I'm usually too busy with a hands on bladesmithing class that I run.
We have a good sense of humor here in Northshield, as long as you sit with us and eat your fill first...

Its a really fun event, im really looking forward to it.

The current plan is that we arrive sometime on Friday. so if its then hopefully can make it in time.
Otherwise if I can get a chance to meet any of yall I will be in the area of the Artemisian Royals as my lady is part of their retinue.

I normally have my class both days, Friday from roughly 10 until 6ish and Saturday until 5 ish. Sometimes later depending on how I'm bribed (food works really well).

Awwww, that all from the archive thats coming? I know a good bunch of us outlanders are showing up this year, would be a pity if northshield was outnumbered in their own kingdom.

We would LIKE to go, but I have a family commitment and Valerius needs to go down to the open shop on the 17th to work on armour.

I make no guarantees. The harpy is an impetuous creature and deserving really has little to do with it.
(Oh, and as an aside: never tell a harpy that she's NOT going to squirt ketchup in your ear)
Looking forward to it.

Had a great time out there. The drive to site was absolutely gorgeous!Next time I'll try to get out earlier for more fighting AND I'll see if I can't get some more Calontiri to join in.
Thanks to all for the great event and hospitality!
