Quest for Camelot

Post by Elias mac Griogair »

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 :D

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... :lol:

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.

The current plan has me going. It's a long freakin' drive, but I've never been, so it should be fun!

I make no guarantees. The harpy is an impetuous creature and deserving really has little to do with it. :twisted:

(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!
