Today we traveled out to the Harrowgate Heath meeting with the hope of discussing the upcoming Demos in Kemptville and Upper Canada Village. As it turns out meetings in "The Heath" are very short, so the formal meeting was ending just as we arrived. Anyway we had the chance to speak to a number of people individually about the demos and will continue the conversations on-line.
One of the best parts of the trip was the ride home. A stroke of inspiration hit us and we came up with a fun way to encourage travel within the Barony. We should all set out on a Skraeling Pilgrimage! If selected as the next Baron and Baroness we would set up a make believe route, including "shrines" at an event in each canton over the course of a few months. Any one who completes the entire pilgrimage will be rewarded with a special pilgrim's badge. Visitor's to the shrines will perform short (5min or less) ritual such as drinking from the sacred fountain, reciting a verse while climbing the steps, and other silly tasks based on historical examples.
This is an example of the creativity we offer to the Barony. A Skraeling Althing pilgrim's route achieves a number of our goals: it would be fun, it makes the game feel more medieval, and it encourages members from across the barony to visit one another.
