Brialla’s JourneyOriginally posted January 28th, 2015 by EM Elizabella on the Great Lakes EM Site:

Brialla of the Seven Tears was the first to chart the mysterious north lands of Britannia. Brialla set out from Yew, in her humble brown monk’s robe and bare feet, to push back the dark corners of the map. Her journals are rich with illustrations and detailed descriptions of the terrain, its plants and animals, and the nomads she met along the way. She even found the mineral deposits in the mountains by what would become Minoc.

Every year, in late January, the people of Britannia celebrate Brialla’s journey by donning monks’ robes and walking barefoot from Yew to Minoc. There, they toast to her memory in the tavern. All are encouraged to tell whatever legends they’ve heard of Brialla’s journey or to describe their own adventures.

Meet Louisa Clark in front of Empath Abbey on Friday, January 30th, at 8 p.m. CST. The traditional robe can be acquired, for a nominal donation, from the monks in the Yew Winery. This year, journeyers are asked to be armored and armed under their robes.

The Great Lakes Event Moderators would like to thank all the players of Great Lakes for making 2014 another amazing year! I would also like to congratulate my partner Elizabella on her fifth year anniversary.

A brief list of some of what happened this year: Spy Mission #200, meddling in gargoyle politics, the slaying of Balinor at Stonegate, Bordermarch, Foulwell’s bitter humor, our new Award Hall, Zox’s Museum of Fish, the Well of Souls, a haunted circus, criminal conspiracies, and the defeat of Flain the White Rose Killer. A very full twelve months!

Happy New Year’s and keep your swords sharp for 2015!

–Malachi
