1.13 The Apple Festival: Part One

DodoBorne: A Daggerheart Actual Play Podcast

Show Notes

Welcome to the Brackenroad Apple Festival! We are so thrilled to have you! Although our Apples are all year round, the festival is the most exciting part of our season! What's so great about apples you ask? The apple has been called the loveliest of all fruits. It is also one of the most important agricultural crops grown in the Algenubi Province, and has been a part of the province's culture and heritage for nearly 250 years. Algenubi is the largest producer of apples in Voldaen, and Brackenroad accounts for 80% of the province's crops. Needless to say, we're crazy about apples, and want to celebrate them with you! Visit our nearly 40 acres of orchards and pick your own apples! Take some seeds and plant your own! Though I can't promise they aren't magic beans; nor can I promise that your apples will be as good as here. The soil is just different here, blessed by Sage itself they say! Visit our many food vendors! Want some fresh milk from a haggard cow named Milky White? Want some bread to give to your poor old granny in the woods? How about some ash-free lentils? All that can be found here! I'll even throw a sticky bun in there for you. Visit our fantastic games. You'll find classics such as Applejacks, Appletoss, Appletiles, and more! We're thrilled to announce the release of a new game this year: Apple Daggerheart! We've got a volunteer with an apple in front of their chest, and we've got a set of three throwing knives here. I'm sure you can figure the rest out. Just launch it as hard as you can! Don't worry, they're wearing armor. See how high of a score you can hit!
