Just as Winter is exhaling her final frosty breaths, the much anticipated competition of strength, skill, and feats known as the Highman Games is held every year on Jirkirl's Hilltop. Generally known as a contest between the various giantman clans, the event and its fairgrounds draw thousands of visitors to take part in or observe the annual marvel.
This year, the dwarves are being invited to participate in the annual games in honor and memory of the Sunfist Pact.
Following the opening speech on Leyan, the games will be open for all competitors to practice on, as well as for the visitors to give their skills a try. They are encouraged during this time to enter into friendly competition. Official runs of each game are at pre-scheduled times -- found in the FESTIVAL schedule -- and these official runs are only open to the giantmen and dwarves.
Don't forget that there are other activites to participate in! There are the opening of the games, arm wrestling, local shops, the annual picnic, the closing (awards) ceremonies, the storytelling competition, and, of course, plenty to drink and eat while you wander the fairgrounds!
To serve the transportation needs of many visitors, several inventive gnomes have opened up their special travel system in various cities throughout the continent. The only such system that is for public use (and not privately contracted), will be located in Icemule Trace, just outside of the western gate.
Please utilize the FESTIVAL schedule for further information on the times of events, as well as for directions both to the event and around the event.
We look forward to seeing you at Jirkirl's Hilltop!
The Highman Games run February 3 - 9, 2010.
