First, let me apologize for the late post and thank everyone for the fantastic events and weekends we’ve had at Sherwood Forest Faire so far this season. We are meeting our goal of being good neighbors and are getting real traction in becoming established members of the clan community. Best of all, we’ve made hundreds of new friends and several of which may join our ranks.
I had the pleasure of Raid Leading our first event, Hugin’s Quest: The Search for Munin. Odin, the Allfather of the gods, had two Raven familiars, Hugin and Munin (thought and memory), that traveled the nine realms and reported all things to Odin. It is said the Allfather feared one day they would not return. He worries for Hugin, but he worries more for Munin. And this was weekend Munin did not return.
The Heirs of Asgard and their allies knew Munin was last seen near Nottingham Castle, an area known well to only a few heirs. Their quest was to map out Sherwood Forest’s clan camp grounds, make friends, and bring Munin back to camp. Throughout the weekend our adventurers visited 30 different camps, met hundreds of midgardians, and ultimately brought Munin home.
Congratulations to Melinda and Doug from Odin’s Children for finding Munin, who was lost in Mug and Flame, and to Britt and PJ for mapping the most clans and residents! Special thanks to Joe, Peter, and the Brew Crew for the full tap wall; to our dedicated TABC certified bar tenders; and to our Odin Chef, Jenn Treadway, for the wonderful meals!
One day, hopefully far in thet future, our memories will struggle to return. But, perhaps all we need is a little help from our friends to bring them back. I hope never to forget these wonderful weekends we get to enjoy together. Thank you for being part of them.
Together we are Tanks!
