Trial by Fire and Royal Archer
(2021-10-01 - 2021-10-03 - Site opens at 3:00 PM & Closes at 1:00 PM)
Bright Hills
With two major activities
happening in one place, no
one will want to miss a minute
of this event!
Trial by Fire, sponsored by the
Bright Hills Cooks Guild, tests
the skill and knowledge of the
finest cooks in the Knowne
World. With four categories,
Main dish, Vegetable, Grains
and Desserts, to choose from,
our competitors must create a
period recipe using only those
methods that do not require
electricity. What started out
as a challenge within the
Guild more than two decades
ago is now open to both the
populace of Atlantia and the
rest of the Knowne World. There are special guidelines for the cooking competition due to COVID this year which are posted at https://www.eventatbrighthills.com/rules-for-tbf
The Royal Archery competition features many and varied
stations based on Myths and Legends for archers young,
old, and in-between to test
themselves and prove that
they are worthy to become the
next Atlantian Royal Archer. There will prizes for both
activities.
