**** House Taivassalama's Annual St Urho's Tourney ****
(House Taivassalama translates to House Sky Lighting in Finnish)
Know that long ago, in far Finland, the wine crop was threatened by
hoards of Grasshoppers. Into the malstrom of Vinter's difficulty stepped a Giant
of a Man, Urho, Mighty Urho, who with his pitchfork chased the evil Grasshoppers from
all of Finland. Forever earning him the love and honor due a Finnish Saint...Saint Urho!!!
His Heroic deed is commemorated every 16th of March, the day before St Patricks Day
(some 2nd rate Irish Saint) and we, the members of House Taivassalama, hold a
Wonderous Medieval Tournament in his honor WITH FABULOUS PRIZES!!!!
Mighty Saint Urho
