[Jararvellir] Calling all artisans and craftsmen (should that be crafters?... oh, well) All y'all!

[BDoyle at mge.com]

Greetings to the list,

I know that out there there?s a huge variety of things that relate to 
armor combat!  An example is: what research is there to show what a 
chiurgeon would  do to treat ?it?s only a flesh? wound?  What kind of 
thing might a warrior carry to remind him or her of home?  What depictions 
of conflict or valor might have been created?  What meal might have been 
offered at a triumphant return home?  If our warrior had sent word ahead, 
what would our warrior?s family have worn to welcome him or her home? What 
fighting songs might have been sung to keep morale up?  Well, here?s to 
bringing all those things into the open for display! 
 
It?s my honor to manage the display of Arts and Sciences at the event 
known as It?s Only A Flesh Wound.  There will be both a display area and 
an area for bean-count competition, with 2 kinds of beans used as votes: 
one to be used by any royalty present, and the other to be used by the 
general populace.  The artist or craftsman will bring their item to me 
before noon on the day of the event, and we will arrange the item, and any 
written documentation, for view or competition.  By the way, if you have a 
videotaped version of a song or play, let me know in advance and I?ll 
bring my TV that runs VHS so we can see that on the day. 
 
I say ?it ain?t braggin if you done it? and ?let?s show off?!  This event 
is, after all, meant to be a celebration of the culture around armored 
combat.
 
Kristyan, the event autocrat, has informed me that there will be an hour 
set aside for active arts (singing, dancing, music making, and such like - 
maybe a play about combat???), and I'll have there a sign-up sheet for 
gentles wanting to take advantage of the opportunity.

So!  If yours is an art or science you would like to add to the enjoyment 
of this event, feel welcomed to contact me and/or bring it to the event.

In Service,
Ermina of Jararvellir, AoA
