We're honoured to, once again, host this fantastic group of people.

Bjarni is hosting the 4th year with the Midgard Vikings Brotherhood at Moorforge Viking Settlement. This year is an international meeting, so a lot more people. We're nearly set up for the first feast tomorrow night. It should be a fantastic weekend.
