From Baron Malcolm:
After the success of Yule 86 our reputation of feeding the populace until they nearly burst and roll them out the doors preceded us, however there was one group that didn’t understand the fasting warning. In a effort to win the table setting contest they had their table groaning with appetizers. They did not seem to understand that they were the source of a lot or jokes that evening. Maybe they did by the time I served the wafer thin after dinner mints at the end of the meal.(it is a sad statement that some people feel they need to bring food to a banquet)
What I remember most was the peoples reaction when Aladric and I carried in the flaming subtletie high over our heads, a cake in the shape of a dragon with armored knights in its jaws and live flames emitting from mouth. I think it was the girls running in screaming for help before us that really made the presentation.
