Come one, come all to the Barony of Adiantum this October and celebrate the camaraderie of friends!
The leaves are changing colors, and the air is crisp. The bear prepares for the long winter and the ripe apples are ready for harvesting. The Baronies of Adiantum and Terra Pomaria once again welcome you into the Bear and Apple to witness skill, prowess and creativity as championships are challenged. This year, we are privileged to host the Kingdom of An Tir’s Heraldic and Scribal Symposium and welcome participants with open arms and a warm hearth.
Nestled away on Pitcher Creek, a stone’s throw from the peaceful Row River, Baroun Evan and Baronin Ayla have staged this year’s festivities on a quiet manor. They, and Their Cousins Thegn Clovis and Baronessa Ximena of Terra Pomaria, cordially invite all to come and witness five different competitions:
Along with these activities, there will be a wealth of classes offered on a wide variety of subjects. Watch this space for further details for classes offered at the Kingdom Heraldic and Scribal Symposium and the Bear and Apple.
