Greetings fair populace of the Kingdom of Lochac. We would be honoured to invite you to witness those who wish to partake in the Spring Crown Tournament to choose the future Heirs of Lochac. The weekend's theme is 'Along the Coffee Trail' and as such the menu will include delicacies from the regions that the bittersweet liquid spread. Coffee is thought to have spread from Ethiopia to Egypt and Yemen where it was first roasted, and then by the 16th century it spread throughout the Middle East, Türkiye, Persia, and into northern Africa. Later coffee spread from the Muslim regions to Italy and Hungary in the 17th Century. The first coffee house was in Constantinople. There will be a market bazaar set for those who wish to sell goods during the weekend and a young merchant will be selling Turkish coffee over both days. The event has dorm and camping options, with catered and offboard pricing.
