Hello Wonderfolk of the World,

Gosh! Late again – Many apologies for the delay, we’ll go into why momentarily but for the immediateness of now we’ll start with the hope that this message finds you in fine form, fetlock and fettle and that you had an excellent couple of weeks wherever you were and whatever you were doing. 

Let’s kick off with our usual thanks to all of the Patreons and Subs that have stuck with us so far this year and made life better for a bundle of folks who are benefitting from the counselling service, food and other facilities that The Rising provides. With the coming energy and cost of living crisis facing people these contributions are more and more vital with poverty being, possibly, the largest cause of Mental Health problems.

On top of that we also get to say thank you to the frontline emergency services by offering free tickets and priority bookings to our games. You have always been outstanding and under the current system we will do what we can to support you in any way possible.

Ok – Let’s move onto some updates.

The massive upheaval that we spoke about is still ongoing and we are having a little trouble trying to keep our feet on the ground. Real life work changes, physical and mental health issues and generally the difficulties that the world is throwing out there has cut down the regular office staff from 7 or 8 to 1 who is covering all of the Rising Offices at the moment. We are almost through this but we are thin on the ground or indeed, thin in the air really.

So…

The Monday Morning Meeting will roll out as the new, improved, Sunday Evening Get Together between 7ish and 8ish pm BST on Twitch as all Rising  team members meet up to discuss the plans of the week, the month and generally natter. Feel free to chime in with questions and comments – That’s here on Sunday Evenings. Have your say, ask questions and help us shape the future of what we are doing together.

Regardless: Each of our Rising sections are covered by our various organisers who you can contact and talk to via our Discord Server or just a straightforward e-mail.

All we can say right now is we are full steam ahead for the Tharinos’ events that are coming up at the end of the year! Tharinos events? Yes there are more than one of the buggers this year in a break to the norm of 25 years: Cleyn, Cadosagh and Haunt are all a go and so are we in this 25 year anniversary special in which, however many of you there are, we are pulling out all of the stops 

Tharinos – Celyn tickets available here: 2nd September – 4th September 2022

and

Tharinos – Cadosagh tickets available here: 30th September – 2nd October 2022

This week on CODA:

We will be setting up the booking pages for the games and getting ourselves to the end of the year and we will be hammering out the downtime a little more behind the scenes. We are hopeful that we can manage the debrief as a spoken thing for youtube now that tech is working but the week is very full on.

LARPing up that Hill returns on Thursday this time with a NEW TIME SLOT of 5pm -6pm so if you want some hometime listening come and join Holly, Mark and Stephen for the weekly pod.

Ok – So that is probably us for the week – Thank you for reading! We’ll try not to leave it so long next time.

You can find us easily enough:

Till the next time we talk: Have a Foxes and Crows week people, we look forward to seeing all of you somewhere in the world whether that be in the woods or on Discord. 

Much Love

Take Care of Each Other

Team RoC
