Sergeants and Scholars training nobles in the arts of strategy and science of
defense is alive in Roxbury Mill.  We are
hosting a day of hands on training for the noble populace of Atlantia with
martial and collegial classes.  Our
market fields at the abbey are adorned with list fields for warriors to make
ready to answer our liege lord’s call to arms, or win the favor of your
lady.  The forest edge is arranged with
tented places in which to study the arts and sciences and prepare for the
collegial competitions showcasing the knowledge and skills of our people.
