A strangely dressed woman enters the tavern. Her face is covered in a veil and she wears long, light garments that barely brush the tops of her delicate feet, which are strapped into an intricate sandal. She drops the veil and you notice her olive skin and dark hair give her an exotic appearance.
She announces herself immediately after drawing the attention of everyone sitting in the tavern, "My name is Alifa Marembe and I have traveled here on behalf of Helgrim Enterprises."
With a closer look at her garments, you notice a badge hanging from a loop in her belt. It is a golden compass rose with a large H embroidered into the center of it. For those who are knowledgeable of such things, it represents her membership to the Helgrim Seeker Society.
She continues her announcement. "It should be known that on the 23rd of May of the year 2017 from 6-9 CST, Helgrim Enterprises will be hosting a derby. The Hartland Derby will be held, as its name indicates, in Hartland County. There shall be open registration for the races and any horse or ursaphant breeder who wishes to enter their beasts should travel to Helgrim (https://discord.gg/E46PhFw) in order to register and participate. Any registrants should contact myself, Baron Viktor Galliand, or Countess Rheika for details.
She pauses a moment, waiting for the murmurs of excitement to subside. "In addition. Any who do not own a beast to enter in the competition may still enjoy the races. Helgrim supplied bookies will be monitoring bets and Helgrim supplied food and beverages will be sure to entice anyone's interests."
"If you do decide to come, those of us at Helgrim Enterprises (https://chroniclesofelyria.com/forum/topic/1893/NA-Helgrim-Enterprises) will be ecstatic to host you all."
With a flourish she sweeps out of the tavern, leaving the mutterings and murmurings of the locals behind her.
