[Bryn-gwlad] The White Coney Welcomes You

[Lauren Tapia]

The Queen has called for celebration! With the Armada sent back to
Spain, the ships have been brought into port, and the streets are
littered with sailors! Taverns are full of song, drinking, and
gaming... with the occasional brawl. And with the guards busy with the
havoc outside the tavern doors.... who knows what to expect!
The White Coney invites you to join them for fun. Bring your favorite
games, songs, and insults!
