FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - In the Realm of "Michigan" at "RenFest" - August 26, 2006
Ga'kuct Arrested by the High Sheriff !! Orc Ga'kuct bribes jailor with shinies and threats to feed horsie-stew to all of the festival people.... result... all of Chesapeake companions jailed and placed on stage for hanging!!! There was massive confusion in the streets as all attempted to use shinies to further bribe the jailor and executor, but to no avail.
Ga'kuct was heard yelling, "Gak uwd framid!! deze humies ib tuu smellie fur Gak tu bi ere!!"
Sentence almost carried out against the companions, but the High Sheriff had mercy on them when several were able to properly sing "itsy bitsy spider went up the water spout" and successfully perform various 'antics' on stage for the entire audience.
Later, with the survival of the Chesapeake companions, a Pirate ordered them to the archery range to launch an attack against a bear, tree dwarf and deer. Reports from the pirate (after much yelling at the companions) indicated only three of 45 arrows hit the targets and several landed in a nearby tree.
Thrown out of the archery range, the companions went on to fight against each other in a fighting pit where several companions were dismounted from a wooden rail, fell in bails of hay, and another pirate declared "the best fight of the season!"
Much more to report later.... including the Death Certificates issued on various Chesapeake companions ... so the murderers of Chesapeake will no longer target these companions. (yes, such real Certificates were issued by the undertaker at the Festival).
The plans for Sunday include at least a boat trip on the River which may lead to fishing for Big Fish and much throwing of "cardboard" nets into the water.
From "Michigan", the Chesapeake companions send their "Hail" to all.
