Sliiiight hickup - due to IRL I had to postpone the “art” for the prices, they will be delivered after the event unfortunately.

Rest assured, we will still hand out lovely prizes IC - only that the winner art will be given slightly delayed after tonight :wink:

See you soon! / Morg

In response to my own statement earlier about not wanting to live on this world anymore if a Wildhammer didn’t win the hammer throw, I am glad to report that I am alive and well after having taken first place myself.

Dwarf RPers really are amazing people, as I have said before. You can learn all that there is to know about their characters in a month, and yet after a hundred events they can still surprise you at a pinch. - Gandalf :man_mage:t2:

The event is still ongoing as I write this with the rewards being distributed… but… CAN I JUST SAY–

This was one of the best Dwarf themed server event -ever-! It was so memorable, there was so much laughs and stories shared, and I am forever thankful for these amazing hosts! BIG props to you for bringing love to the Dwarf Community…

I really enjoyed the festival. Got the chance to interact with awesome people.
Unfortunately could not stay for the final celebration, had to hit the sack.
But it was worth staying late for it, even though I have to survive at work on roughly 4 hours of sleep fueled by coffee.

A massive thank you to Morgrim (& All organizers!) for this fantastic event.

Fond memories of this event and glad to see the community out in force.
Also a great time to debut my newest concept in the form of Stone & Sonnet poetry, which I thought worked brilliantly and thanks for those of whom I had the best interactions with!

Below is the recited poem from last nights closing ceremony, in honor of the festival:

Bul’ghaz Khara’kaz

Horn!
Life rushed through the sleepy town,
Dwarf of every clan came forth to put on a show,
With promise of kegs to be drunk and hammers to be thrown,
This is the tale of the years Borkaz in Modan.

Ale!
The festival begins with the constant flow,
Welcomed races of the Alliance from Pandaren to Elf and Gnome,
Here comes the judge, Morgrim and Co’:
“Each contestant will compete upon Dun Moroghs snow!”

Music!
Intermissions of joy and partnership,
Traditional steps to a rhythm many came to learn,
Story through movement,
Danced by those with newly created tales of fellowship.

Coin!
Each corner hosted a stall,
Dwarven craft and forged,
Goods to be traded and prices to fall,
Each day we walk away with a healthy haul.

Unity!
Forged within the flames of the Entertainer,
A bond to be shared by all who arrived,
The stories of the years Bul’ghaz Khara’kaz,
Brought to you by Morgrim, Unity’s Retainer.
