Ales and Tales
Ales and Tales is a weekly event originally conceived by Galenswerd, held on Landroval Server and hosted by Harperella of the Lonely Mountain Band. Each week, we meet and enjoy the pleasures of food and drink, music, dancing, tales and fine companionship. The entertainment is provided by the audience themselves, as individuals and groups come forward to offer tales, poems, and songs. Those in the audience may participate by drinking, smoking, sitting quietly and listening, kibitzing, dancing, giving out drinks and food, or whatever seems appropriate for your character to do in a pub. Its a great place to unwind after a hard day of fighting the shadow, as you kick back with a mug of ale and socialize with your fellow adventurers.
Date and Time
Ales and Tales is held every Monday at 9:30pm EST. It usually goes for 1-2 hours.
Nibbles and Nobs
The hour prior to Ales and Tales is Nibbles and Nobs, a chance to socialize and make a little music prior to the official event of Ales and Tales. Hobnob with the other patrons before the official event begins while you nibble on various snacks of your choice.
Location
Ales and Tales is a roving event. Each week sees a new location throughout middle earth. Some of the past locations have included such diverse locales as: The Prancing Pony, The Oak N Barrel (a player run inn), the Mathom Society, and the burnt remains of the Mad Badger. The very first Ales & Tales took place at the Green Dragon Inn on August 17th, where all proper adventures begin.
