A joint missive from the Pennsic Royals
Unto the Known World do the Heirs of the East, the Middle, Atlantia, and Æthelmearc
send greetings as we herald a New Year filled with promise, glory, and fellowship!
We turn our eyes to the jewel of our Society’s calendar, the illustrious Pennsic War.
Each year, Pennsic combines the clash of arms, the harmony of song, and a vibrant
array of cultures to forge our collective medieval dream. It is with great joy and
anticipation that we extend our heartfelt welcome to all who would partake in this grand
adventure. The preparations for this year’s Pennsic are well underway, and our hearts
are set on a singular mission: to craft an experience so unforgettable that every
participant will carry it forward, yearning for the return of next summer’s gathering. This
year, the principles of the East and Middle Kingdoms have forged a bond of unity with
each other and our noble cousins, the mighty Atlantia and our glorious host
Æthelmearc. We have pledged to shape the Pennsic War’s structure, rules and events
with the virtues of inclusivity and fairness in the spirit of noble competition. Our goal is to
weave a tapestry of shared adventures and traditions that will stand as a testament to
the enduring legacy of Pennsic.
To those who join us for the first time, we offer our welcome to a world where history
and imagination merge into a living, breathing experience. May your journey into the
heart of Pennsic be one of awe and inspiration, and a place where dreams of chivalry,
artistry, and camaraderie come alive. For those who return, bearing the memories of
past Pennsics, we eagerly await the tales you will add to this ever-growing saga. We
strive to ensure that every person finds their place within this living dream, and we call
upon you, the populace, to lend your voices, your ideas, and your hearts to help us
shape this year’s war into the most inclusive and joyous Pennsic yet.
Prepare yourselves for days of splendor and nights of revelry. Whether you march into
battle, partake in the arts, or simply bask in the ambiance of this wondrous event, know
that you are part of a community that thrives together. Let us gather as one, bound by
our love for history and imagination and the life we breathe into it.
Raise your banners, don your armor, and prepare your hearts, for the Pennsic War
beckons. Let us step forward into this New Year courageous and united, ready to create
memories that will endure for generations to come.
In service and anticipation,
The Heirs of The East, The Middle, Atlantia, and Æthelmearc
