Mistress Xene Theriane.

I have been both remiss in sending forth my personal invitation to all
Gentles and Nobles of this fair Kingdom to join with me in a small
transplanted campground from just outside the walls of Constantinople.
Please forgive me in my tardiness.

All Romaioi, Greeks, Petchnegs, Syrians, Moslems, Jews, Rus, and Varangians
are invited to stay on this magical ground at the upcoming event called
"Elfsea Defender".  Crusaders are also welcome, but they must promise to
leave everything where they found it and be tolerant of others.  There will
be no jihads, nor any crusades within our peaceful boundaries.

Bring your banners, your icons, your personal prayer rugs, your camels, and
your goats to our own little piece of "The Jewel of the East".  Chirurgeons
are also quite welcome to teach and share their knowledge of medicine and
the humours.  Silk Merchants will be quite popular as well!

Stylites need to bring their own columns to sit upon.  Clothing is not
optional.

Our encampment will be providing a small luncheon for the Royals and Nobles
at Defender.  If you would like to contribute victuals to this luncheon,
please reply directly to me and not through the great herald that delivers
this message to you.  Even if you are not able to contribute, but would like
to camp with us, please let me know so that we can have our architects
properly plan the streets and aqueducts.

Pavillions such as those existing prior to 1453 are welcomed, as are other
tenting facilities.  Yurts are also welcomed, as they remind me of the
buildings of my homeland. Spinners and weavers are invited to set up their
looms so that all may see the industry of Constantinople.  It is this
industry, the fruitfulness of the harvest, and the blessing of the Almighty
that keeps this Empire great.

In most abject Humility, I am Forever a Servant to God and Ansteorra,

Mistress Xene
