In the days leading up to the legendary hunt for the White Hart, the populace of Port Oasis prepares a feast and celebration in their local lodge. These festivities meant to prepare them for the long days ahead, tracking the ever elusive and elegant White Hart, will take place over several days. It will begin on Friday, March 1st, A.S. LVIII, by welcoming travelers from far and wide with some warm and filling food and drink, and a good night’s rest. Early morning on Saturday, March 2nd, the day’s events will begin with a hearty breakfast and lunch intermingled with tournaments and activities for all. A magnificent feast will be had in the evening, followed by more merriment. On the morning of Sunday, March 3rd, we will send forth our hunters until next year.
The Lord and Lady of the White Hart, Lord Samuel of Great Oaks and Lady Fina the Huntress, would like to invite the Known World to join them in a celebration of rebirth, adventure, love, and chivalry at the Tournament of the White Hart XXIV in the Shire of Port Oasis, where they will again host a tournament of swords and pageantry and would challenge all comers to display their honor, their love, and their arms for all the Known World to see. Competitions will be held for the Champion in heavy fighting, the Defender in fencing, the Yeoman in archery, and for the Artisan in A&S.
