Flameborn Feast Ends in Fire
An annual Flameborn celebration has once again ended with damaged furniture, missing mead and a suspicious amount of fire. Family representatives insist everything proceeded exactly as planned
Rumours continue to circulate following last week’s Flameborn gathering, which ended with what witnesses are describing as “a completely avoidable amount of fire.”
The evening began peacefully enough, with members of the Flameborn family gathering to celebrate the annual Ember Feast. However, festivities reportedly took a turn when a debate broke out regarding who possessed the finest cloak in the realm.
Several eyewitnesses claim the discussion remained civil for almost seven minutes before escalating dramatically.
One attendee, speaking anonymously, stated:
“One minute they were complimenting each other’s embroidery. The next, someone challenged someone else to a duel and a decorative banner was on fire.”
Flameborn representatives have denied any wrongdoing, insisting that the incident was merely a “spirited exchange of opinions.”
Questions have also been raised regarding the disappearance of three barrels of mead and a ceremonial chair. Sources close to the family suggest the chair may have been launched from a balcony during the celebrations.
Despite the chaos, the event was declared a success by organisers.
“It was one of our calmer gatherings,” said a family spokesperson while extinguishing a smouldering tablecloth.
At the time of publication, repairs are ongoing and investigators have confirmed that no dragons were involved.
For once.
