The Celebration Festival of the Sithire's Wedding

Post by Nymphetamine »

On Sundas, the 20th of Last Seed, civic employees and volunteers began the set up of multiple tables and benches in the Black Dragon District and Market Square to host the sumptuous array of food. Stalls were erected by various merchants of the city and those that came to ply their wares. A dance floor was made by spreading out several boards across the cobblestones in Market Square. Multiple but small stages were arranged at various positions throughout both areas to provide constant music by numerous minstrels and performing troupes.

Finger foods are arrayed enticingly on platters and serving dishes. Pastries and hand pies are a big draw. There are no plates, so festival goers are encouraged to return to the tables as often as they'd like. Festival staff are quick to retrieve empty serving dishes and return with platters heaped with more food. They run back and forth between nearby hostelries, including the famed Black Dragon Inn, to cater to the demand.

Local merchants were permitted to sell their wares, provided they donate half of all proceeds to the Drachean charity groups to provide for the poor and needy. Some merchants, such as Baroque's General Store are donating an additional, exceedingly charitable twenty five percent as well.

The festival is to last throughout the week and likely to continue through all hours.

The Tournament of Martial Prowess began that Sundas and will run through the week as bouts are hosted to whittle down the number of participants eager to compete for the Champion's Purse of three thousand crowns and the title of Knight Champion.
