[Ansteorra] Ravensfort Artisan Equestrian Quest and Activities

[David Brown]

Actually...that was our thought...but....We want every fighter to come and enter the arts and sciences. Every artisan / fighter who enters one of the 3 competitions will receive 4 ribbons. You will be able to sponsor ONE fighter/competitor in each of the 4 martial tourneys.
