Further Event Information:
Their Excellencies of Eskalya, Gavin and Celstria, and Their Excellencies of Selviergard, Lyneya and Anastasia, extend a warm seasonal invitation to the Bi-Baronial Yule. We celebrate the ending of the year by sharing good times and memorable stories from the months past and prepare ourselves for the future as we look to the stars for inspiration. We ask our Populace to outshine the stars with your best garb and to help decorate the hall with arts displayed around the site and decorating the feasting hall tables. We are encouraging artist to bring items that warm their hearts to display and share, even if it is from events held in years past and we ask that everyone help make the feasting table spectacular with your Yule table decorations. In the spirit of celebration there will only be two contests that our traditional at our Yule. Eskalya will choose a Master or Mistress of Ambrosia with the judges comparing the best period sweet dish or dessert. Documentation is not required but strongly encouraged. Selviergard will choose their Lord or Lady of Misrule. Entrants from all areas are welcome in both contests. A Yule Feasting Hall should be filled with music, song and laughter so all Bards are invited to share a tale, a song or a poem. Their Excellencies reserve the right to declare any outstanding performer the Yule Bard. The feast will be a potluck style with an emphasis on finger foods. We want you to bring your favorite dishes that are served as small easily handled treats to share with each other. The planning of this event will utilize the larger room for the feast with the smaller room setup for Court. Their Excellencies will join the Populace at the feast and we will not have a High Table to have as much room as possible for an enjoyable Yule. Rumor has it that Santa, Mrs. Clause and an Elf from the North Pole will join our festivities for pictures.
