Barony of Storvik Post Pennsic Dessert Revel
August 28, 2004

As autumn approaches and the winds of War fade in the west, another sound is
heard echoing throughout the fair lands of Atlantia. No, it’s not the sound
of frozen cicada’s dropping from the trees. It’s the lilt of laughter and
merriment carried on warm desert breezes across sun-caressed dunes.

The Barony of Storvik, jewel of Atlantia, invites you to join the fun and
frivolity of their Post Pennsic Dessert Revel, or, One Last Night at the
Casbah. Tune up your dumbek, wear your yelek, and shimmy for the Ladies of
Storvik as we celebrate that belly dancer in all of us.

The traditional "Best Pennsic Story" bardic competition will be held as well
a “Best Pennsic War Treasure” contest. Although there will be no martial
activities, come and show off your war wounds for the “Best Pennsic Bruises”
contest (combatant and non-combatant entries will be judged, but all bruises
must be documentable). All brave lords are also invited to participate in
the “Best Male Belly Dancer” competition. No experience or rhythm required,
just a great sense of humor.

A light day board will be provided for all to enjoy, and a competition in
the culinary arts will be held for the best period dessert. Please bring
pillows, throws, and wall hangings to enhance that Oasis feel.

Drumming, dancing, and games of daring do for the whole family! Come and
play “Pin the Fish on the Peer” (no actual fish will be harmed during this
game), “Who Wants to Be An Aristocrat”, and wonder at “Blindman’s
Pillowfight” (please bring your own list legal pillow).

A & S Activities

All are invited to display their arts and sciences learned or practiced at
Pennsic War XXXIII. Works in progress also are welcome.

A call to all bards and drummers: there will be a bardic, and drumming
circle. We would also request drummers to play for the delight of the Ladies
of Storvik during the Male Belly Dance contest.

Cooks and Bakers are invited to tempt Her Excellency with an entry in the
"Best Period Dessert" competition, as the traditional Storvik Post Pennsic
Dessert Potluck continues. Take advantage of a $1.00 lower troll fee for
