Server: Laurelin
Time: 3pm EST/8pm GMT
Location: Green Dragon Inn, Bywater, The Shire
Description: The regular weekly Green Dragon Friday will take on a pie theme this week, so be sure to bring your pie related songs, poems, stories, and of course some of that lovely baked good. Green Dragon Friday features light RP chat, heavy drinking, much music and dance, perhaps some riddles, many a pie, definitely a poem, ever so often a story, always the latest in hobbit news and gossip, sometimes a few surprises. This is a hobbit event–a few visiting dwarves are welcome, but the planners request that the crowd remain mostly hobbit only. All chat is in-character and songs should be appropriate to the atmosphere.
