This is my favorite picture from the weekend... I dont know why considering it is inside doesnt show the full scope of what was accomplished during the Topeka Renaissance Fall Festival 🤔
But it shows all the towns people of Flinthaven and a dream that was built through so many ideas, meetings and accomplishments.
