[Elfsea] Feast--Was Answers to Questions about Guardian of the Tor Site

[Chris Davidson]

Simone,

why don't you pose the suggestion to the group that those who have a feast
token get the good seats under the perminant pavilion and those who are
coming to enjoy the atmospher and be with thier friends get the tables on
the outside edge of  the pavilion so the servers know can and cannot eat
feast.
