We would like to formally invite the heroes of the Realms to Goldenhall in Ashenmark for another Ashen Bounty celebration. This year, without threats abound, we have time to relax and enjoy the company of one another in the fall weather. Join us for tounaments, questing, and a great deal of delicious food.

Anyone may enter and try any of the appetizers, writing a review for as many as they like. The best review for each appetizer will win a gold prize and they will present their review with the monsterous appetizers being server to the general public.

A new threat becomes clear. What will the future hold?
Early Arrivals
For those of you who arrive on Friday, we'll be serving light refreshments and fine drinks to share around the fire. The Saurabian Casino will be running Blackjack and Saurian Sprint, and they encourage you to bring your tree fiddies for a new side bet!
Court
Ashenmark court will be held for the first time in several years during the dinner break. See Raynor for questions or for time during court.
A New Format
This year will start a new tradition at Ashen Bounty. With the fall questing season being so busy, we have decided to move the focus of Ashen Bounty from questing back to the feast. In its earliest incarnation Ashen Bounty was a blend of both, however as the years went on we started to focus more on the questing as our resources to do both didn't grow with the events attendence. However, that does not mean that there will be absence of questing entirely. The following is the, tentative, schedule of events for the weekend.
Friday
- Food, mocktails, gambling, board games, camp fire (7-12)
Saturday
- Feasting (12-8)
