In the interests of extending a form of olive branch, and at the same time bringing a little bit of home to this place, I am wondering if I could make a small imposition. I have heard that your parents were interested in Dentorian culture, and I assume by proxy they have made some others interested in it as well. The day where we would be celebrating Spring Fair is fast approaching, and I was wondering if having a small informal competition assembled in Cleraine would be possible. I have done some work in setting up the necessary materials to host one so long as it doesn't grow overlarge. Though I admit a lot of it is far less fancy than would be expected at a true event hosted in Dentoria.

Traditionally, there is an archery and a sword contest. However, I have been thinking of expanding to some other forms of weaponry in the melee. After all, restricting it to swords would lead to far less of a turnout in the list all things considered. I was thinking of expanding to all traditional Dentorian melee weapons, and perhaps the whip if enough practicioners turn out. I don't think whips have ever been used in a Dentorian contest, however I am quite interested to see how one is used in this context. I would include magic, but it would hardly be fair. If the practitioner doesn't chant fast enough, the one with the physical weapon will strike them down easily. If the practitioner chants fast enough the battle is practically over, because at that skill level it is rarely not threatening the target's life.

As it is informal, the reward for winning will not be as grand as one would expect from one hosted directly from the seat of power over an area. Though I am quite sure I can convince my wife to make a fine cake to the victor's specifications. All that would be required of you would be a space sufficently large enough for two people to move around without tripping over the people gathered to watch. All safety measures will be followed to the letter of the law.

I am hopeful that this will do much to raise the spirits of everyone in the area. It is after all, the least I can do.
