[Ansteorra] iso european dancers ??

[Rose]

Her name is Mistress Adena Terricsdottir of Namron, and the dancing was planned and on the schedule. I've CC'd her on this so she sees it.

As for dancing in general, I seem to recall a lot more court dancing going on when I was younger than we see now, but that may be nostalgia talking. :P
