class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Century;">The Year
is 1425, and in Paris, France, a huge revival of Greek and Roman
Mythology are being enjoyed by all. Please join Their Ursine
Excellencies, Philippe and Suzanne, and the Barony of Bjornsborg
as they host a Pas d'Armes to celebrate the myth of the Judgment
of Paris on the weekend of October 15-17th at the Seguin Outdoor
Learning Center.<span class="Apple-converted-space"></span><br>
<br>
When Paris was given the decision to choose the fairest goddess,
Hera, Athena, or Aphrodite, he based his decision on the
proposed gifts that were offered. Bjornsborg's Pas will allow
the goddesses to determine their own champions, based on each of
their individual virtues:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>
<br>
- Hera will choose a champion based on Loyalty and Prowess.<span
class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>
- Athena will choose a champion based on Wisdom and Strategy.<br>
- Aphrodite will choose a champion based on Love and Courtesy.<span
class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>
