[Moo] FW: [Atlantia-Announce] Chalice of the Sun God: Feast of the Minotaur

[Rhonwen verch Tuder]

We will be defending our title as Chalice Champions again this year.  If you
are interested in being on a team to keep the Chalice of Ponte Alto here in
Stierbach (or heck because you want to have fun!) please see one of us to
get a slot.  The more the merrier!  If there is enough interest we can put
together more than one team.

Chalice of the Sun God: Feast of the Minotaur

October 22, 2011

Barony of Ponte Alto

Long did the world suffer under the yoke of Crete.  Thanks to Theseus, we no
longer must send our sons and daughters as tribute for the vile Minotaur.
Join us as we celebrate Theseus' slaying of the beast and decide this year's
Chalice Champions.
