[Ansteorra-announce] Trials of St Anthony- Barony of Bjornsborg Oct. 18-20, 2013

[Elisava Illiesca]

Countries from around the world have been vying for a Holy Relic of St. 
Anthony of Padua that has been proven to be of utmost importance to all of 
Christendom. The Relic has been entrusted to Their Excellencies Philippe and 
Suzanne of Bjornsborg, who have decided to host a Grand Tournament to decide 
the rightful owner of the Relic and end the bloodshed.

Teams representing various countries will vie for possession of the Relic. 
Teams will be built using a point system as well as the opportunity to 
choose the country that you wish to represent. Choice of country is on a 
first come, first served basis. Teams are required to include or sponsor one 
artist who will donate an item to their Excellencies. The Country deemed 
most deserving will be awarded the War Chest and other gifts from Their 
Excellencies, as well as the opportunity to host the Relic in their country, 
and build a Cathedral for pilgrims to visit.

Other activities include; a static Arts and Sciences competition, an Archery 
Competition, and a Performing Arts Competition. Their Excellencies will 
reward Fantastic Prizes and Gifts to all victors. A delicious feast will be 
provided in the evening by HL Amerinda Di Praga, as well as a tavern hosted 
by Master Iago and Mistress Lucia. The Ansteorran Longship Company will 
serve their famous omelette breakfast on Sunday morning
