Fionnuala’s Fashions: Drinking in the Midsummer Days

The Summer Festival is here!

Midsummer toast

Whenever a festival comes around I break out my Warden, Etaoine (pictured above), and send her all over Eriador delivering drinks for the Inn League and the Ale Association. Each delivery (there are 11 for each faction) gives her either one Badge of Taste (for the Inn League) or Badge of Dishonor (for the Ale Association). These can be turned in for 3 festival tokens each. So for an hour’s travel (once you accept the quests you have an hour to complete them) she earns 66 festival tokens each day. Not bad.

Midsummer drink

Etaoine likes to dress for summer in a dress of soft green accented with yellow. Her cloak shows a sun motif with bright orange rays and she wears flowers in her hair. While visiting various inns in the Shire and other lands to collect drinks for delivery she brings along her trusty tankard, just in case any friendly inn-keepers want to fill it. Her brand new Horse of the Midsummer is her favorite mount to ride during festival time.

Etaoine has managed to achieve kindred status with both the Inn League and the Ale Association and continues to play both sides against the middle for the maximum rewards. What a tricksy Warden.

    A lovely outfit, and a good idea to spy on the Ale Association while pretending to be of service to them 🙂
