LitFest Tours Part 4: Tales from Sanoria

Over the course of the Faire, Fairelanders are joining tours of individual lands and telling stories about them. These we will be preserving on this website – and some will be made into special tales to be recorded for Fantasy Faire radio. We’re also going to share some of these stories here, and here are stories from the fourth tour, to Sanoria.

(Please note – these are the writing we have received to date. You can also read them on the LitFest Sanoria page here – where any further works inspired by Sanoria will be published)

Daily Recap: Tuesday

The Halls of Story – picture by Caitlin Tobias.

Tuesday morning smelled of coffee, croissants, wootberry juice and just a whiff of incense in the morning breeze, like a promise of things to come. The Fairelanders packed their daily survival gear in the various forms of caffeine and snacks, made sure their Teleport HUDs were at hand, that emergency pixie GPS system was online and that party outfits were well chosen in advance. Then it was time to head out for another adventurous day in the Fairelands!

Who is winning the contest for King, Queen and Chancellor of Fantasy Faire?

The contest is well under way now, and votes are beginning to come in – enough so that we’ve taken an early exit poll to show you the state of the candidates.

In the contest for King, Jareth the Goblin King (a popular winner in 2016), has taken an early lead. Loki is making an effort to challenge him, but the good guys (Jon Snow, Gandalf and Han Solo) are trailing here. Will anyone help them out?

Every year, the Fairelands has a special Day where we celebrate the works of a great fantasy author.

In the past we have celebrated the works of Terry Pratchett, William Shakespeare and JRR Tolkien.

This year, for the first time, Fantasy Faire will be celebrating the works of a living writer – George RR Martin with a program of events – and a special party!
