Glymm Mere Requests
Aid
Once again the stores of honey in the Barony of Glymm
Mere are running low. The honey rightfully won by our fair
barony last year was “missing” as our most honorable Baron
Godric attempted to savor a drop from the cask supplied by
Blatha An Oir. It would seem that maybe the taste for honey
runs strong with the residents of Blatha An Oir.
Glymm Mere has been honored with many visits from her
neighbors to the north over the past year. The barony has
welcomed these visitors with warmth and gladness. Oddly
enough, the honey supply in Glymm Mere has dwindled soon
after these visits.
Coincidence? Perhaps. Then again….?
The righteous Baron Godric, fair
Baroness Kara and the Barony of Glymm Mere invite one and all
to Honey War. Help Glymm Mere protect what is left of her
honey!!

98576 is approximately 20 minutes south of Olympia and has
ample room
for everyone to spread out and enjoy themselves while staying
close to
home. Merchants will be set up in a courtyard type
setting with some
seating available in the center courtyard. Spaces are
the typical 10
foot frontage by 20 foot depth with the possibility of
additional
depth on request. Merchant fees are steep however,
we’re asking

various
competitions occurring at the War. This
“fee” is valid for a 10 x 20
space or a 20 x 20 space, anything larger will have to be
re-
negotiated.
So, Come to the Honey War! Merchant! Have fun! We’ll
look forward to
seeing you there!
