[MR] Waterbearing at Pennsic

[Gypsy Bast]

To all Good Atlantians and Most Gracious Waterbearers!

Sadly I can not assist in waterbearing at Pennsic do to prior engagements.  
However, I have made a considerable amount of Sekanjabin in preparation for 
the war and upcomming tourney season.  For those unaware of what Sekanjabin 
is, it is period "Gatorade" from the Middle East, that tastes better than 
gatorade.  A syrup is made then diluted with water, and a little bit goes a 
very long way!!  I have half a dozen quarts of syrup and am willing to 
donate one quart or two for the Atlantian Rapier fighters at Pennsic.  
Frequently at Atlantian events, I welcome all fighters in my camp (which is 
often beside the tourney field) for water, Sekanjabin & refreshments and 
only the Rapier fighters accept, with the exception of a select few Heavies. 
  For these thankful fighters, I would like to assist in ensuring they have 
plenty of refreshments so as not to have any difficulties with dehydration 
at Pennsic.  Please contact me if you accept my offer so as to make 
arrangements to get the jars.  Thank you for your time and consideration.  
Good luck in filling your ranks, your work is greatly appreciated.  I shall 
do my best to assist as I am able.

In Service to the Dream;
Saidhah Roxanna, the Lady Bast
