As the World Burns Scriptorium Episode 52

On this Episode we find the Heroine has hosted a Scriptorium for the Barony of Shattered Crystal. 6 Persons were in attendance. It has been decided that it shall happen monthly as a traveling gathering, being hosted by different people each time. As long as it is a weekend that the Heroine is available she can be a back up house for if something falls though on whom ever planned to host that month.
Scrolls were brought out and shown paper and paint were discussed and sushi rolls were shown (to wrap brushes in with a hair tie so they stay safe in travel and storage) The goal of the Traveling Scriptorium is to inspire new scribes and give seasoned scribes a chance to make scrolls.
Next We find the Heroine and the Gallant Bard at Queens Prize Tourney of The Middle Kingdom Hosted at the event The Valentines Massacre. There the Gallant Bard spent time with the Pied Piper of Siri who turned him on to the Bass Recorder. The Gallant Bard had such a great time playing music both during court and after court for dancing. 
Mean while our Heroine judged for Queens Prize Tourney. It was great to see all the craftsmen. Staying with Our Duo was the David of the Hot Branding Iron, who hosted a a class that was both well attended and seemed like every one had a great time. 
Both David of the Hot Branding Iron and Our Heroine felt not well matched with judging but I think we both gave gentle feed back (We hope) and encouraged craft persons. 
Tune in next time when the Gallant Bard moved heaven and earth for our heroine, well really just earth, dirt to be exact. on As the World Burns.

Today the Heroine and Gallant Bard went on travel to the Ville of E and signed the Bard up for Uke lessons. Then they stopped an consumed nutrition at Clean Eatz and were very pleased. Came home with Popeyes for the Bro in law. Then the Gallant Bard cut a board and mounted it to the out side soffit to keep the raccoon out we hope. The heroine helped plan the strategy for this endeavor. However in general the Bard doesn't want help
The next day the Heoine slept late and is feeling off her game. The Bard worked on electrical after it was decided that the basement stove braker could be tapped into for power for the kilns in the studio. The heroine cleared off a shelf and brought it down stairs but then just got out of the way because the Bard was grumpy and didnt want help at all.
