PLEASE NOTE: The world of Hynafol is only brought to life and made magical by the full participation and investment of each attendee. Therefore, all participants will be required to dress, act, and live as though in a medieval fantasy setting. Everyone in attendance must be in medieval clothing for the entirety of the event. A basic rule of thumb: if it looks or sounds like it’s from the modern world – it isn’t allowed!
