[Event] Gala of Physics 2719

For the first time in 539 years, the Gala of Physics is offering much of its exhibition to the general public of lower races in the Stacks of Brunnhold instead of simply being a galdori-only exclusive affair hidden away in grandeur on campus proper.

Gala of Physics

Introducing the Locomotive
by Crispin Urhat
Brunnhold Station's grand opening will occur on the 5th of Yaris at 10 o'clock in the morning, 2719. The Bastian-made locomotive will arrive on its debut voyage from Vienda Central Station along with the Anaxi Parliament, Brunnhold's Chairs, and a very dignified host of dignitaries and politicians from all across the Six Kingdoms.

While the Grand Opening is open to all races, the arrival of the train will be a galdori-only hosted event.

Tours of the station and viewings of the Kingdom's first sponsored and official locomotive for non-galdori will be after midday. Special tickets must be purchased and all writs must be officially approved before participating. Some restrictions apply (see page 3 for details).

All are
Welcome
by Johann Dinwiddle
For the first time in over 300 years, the Annual Gala of Physics held within the beautiful and ancient red walls of the Kingdom of Anaxas' own Brunnhold will be open to all races. As a show of goodwill toward the lower races, Gala events will be held in various locations in the Stacks (see Fig. 1, map, in the special inset within this paper), including but not limited to: the grand opening of Brunnhold Station which will reveal the new locomotive line from Vienda to Brunnhold, the famed Bastian Ferris Wheel, the Mugrobi Worshipful Company of Pipefitters' steam-powered rides and entertainment, an International Food Court and Vendors, games, and both magical and scientific discovery displays.

Brunnhold campus is still off-limits to non-galdori, and any offenders caught attempting to make their way into the Gala of Physics proper will be arrested and prosecuted according to the full extent of the law.
Science and
Sorcery's Greatest
Gathering

Join the most accomplished academics, magisters, researchers, and scientists from across the Six Kingdoms in this week-long event celebrating their intellectual and experimental achievements!

This year, the Gala of Physics two main focuses will be on electricity and steam power, so be prepared to be amazed by displays of powerful wonder and wonderful power!

Students and visitors alike can also be wowed by various other exhibits. Patent clerks and politicians will be on hand to hear brilliant new ideas and make sure budding inventors will have all the resources they could ever desire to pursue their passions with success!

ABBC3_OFFTOPIC
This year, with booths, displays, games, rides, and vendors spilling into the Stacks, the Gala of Physics is open to both galdorkind and the lower races for the first time in its 539 year history. While most of the more important scientific and magical events are still exclusive to galdori and closely guarded on Brunnhold's sacred Campus proper, there is plenty to do for everyone (though trying anything illegal will certainly get you arrested)!

Great minds from across all the Six Kingdoms have gathered for a week of showmanship, patented discoveries, invention, and, of course, debate and discussion. There are rumors of magical tears in the ley fabric of the world and whispers of hatchers discovered deep in the mountains of Gior. The first train tracks in the Kingdom of Anaxas have been laid with much controversy over lives lost during the rainy season work, stretching from Vienda to Brunnhold.

While the King and most of Parliament depart from Vienda Central Station and arrive safely in Brunnhold General Station on the 5th of Yaris, 2719, the Queen is conspicuously absent.

This is an Open event taking place in Brunnhold from Yaris 1-Yaris 10, 2719. Please tag your threads appropriately and use the [Event] Prefix in your thread title(s). Those who are not galdori are not allowed on campus but still have a variety of options to choose from: they can enjoy the fair-like atmosphere complete with a Ferris wheel that offers a scandalously tantalizing view of Brunnhold's Field of Practical Application from the top, they can visit any number of fantastic industrial, pseudo-scientific, and even magical displays, they can enjoy performances of various skills and art forms from all across the Six Kingdoms, they can eat all kinds of food, and they can hear whispers of strange rumors of magical turmoil in Gior.

The grand opening of Brunnhold's first train station is open to all races but the lower races are not welcome until after the Opening Ceremonies are over and the government officials have left the station.

Galdori, of course, are privileged to enjoy all the Gala of Physics has to offer, which is more or less like a World's Fair but with a lot more magical exploration. Industrial inventions are booming. Whispers are circulating. Politics is roiling at the end of Anaxas' place as seat of the Symvoulio. It's an electric affair so many ways!
