 Since the beloved Sultana has talked her way into the heart of the
Sultan for 1001 days, she is very tired. The Sultan has kindly opened
the floor to hear tales from others to entertain his lady, and he will
personally judge a winner of Storytelling.

Our Glorious Sultan has sent this correspondence to explain his wishes:

The Sultan desires to hear tales that fit one of the following categories:
 1. Any tale from Alf Laila wa Laila* (interpretation or adaptation allowed)
 2. A tale in the style of Alf Laila wa Laila* (an original work)
 3. A tale in a period style.
*A Thousand Nights and a Night

Tales that exceed three turns of the Sultan's Glass (9 minutes total)
may be penalized for inflicting harm on the Sultan's diwan and will be
dealt with according to custom.

Judging will be arbitrary, perhaps swayed by the response of those
near to the Sultan. Bribes are beneath the Sultan, but gifts may be
considered.

The event will be held by the Shire of Gryffyn's Keep on Saturday,
October 19, 2013 from 10:00am until 8:00pm at Burrell Lake Park,
Fisher Hall, 201 Delberta Rd., Lower Burrell, PA 15068.

YIS,
Alime bint Yorgi
