Return to Spider’s Rest
An Empire LRP Player Event
Return to Spider’s Rest is a Varushka-centred event, featuring optional combat and exploration of a Vale, long since left abandoned.
Written by Heather Clayton and David Sifford, we anticipate all sorts of things that go bump in the night – and a reminder of why exactly it is Varushkans are so keen on warding…
“In conclusion there is no obvious reason why the Vale Of Spiders Tears would be anymore difficult to repopulate than any other vale in Miekerova…”
Having stood empty for nearly forty years, interest in the vale has been reignited by Father Drakov declaring it his ancestral homeland and pronouncing himself boyar.
As a wedding gift from The Boyarina, a team of Wardens of nearby Strascovia were tasked with conducting an initial survey of the vale in early Autumn 384.
Now, as Autumn draws to a close, Father Drakov leads a gathering at a nearby wayhouse to head into the vale, deal with whatever threats have been identified and learn more about why it was abandoned so many years ago…
Important Info:
Return to Spiders rest is a FYE and Vale Tale collaboration, running from Friday 13th to Sunday 15th January 2023.
The event will take place at the award winning EYELarp site, Gunman Airsoft Eversley Alpha in Hampshire, an hour outside of London. The closest railway station is fleet.
Tickets are £85, with a £45 part payment to secure your place, with the £40 balance due on the Friday of the event.
As with previous Vale Tale events it will be generally optional combat. There is still plenty of opportunity to get your character killed but this is more likely to be through back chatting an eldritch horror than in a random combat…
Saturday and Sunday catering will be available as a meal ticket from feast your eyes at a price of £30.
The site is completely off-grid, so please bring adequate drinking water for yourself for the weekend – we recommend at least 2 litres per day. There are several shops a short drive away at the village of Hartley Wintney and the towns of Yatley, Hook and Fleet if you need to pick up additional supplies after arrival.
Tickets will be released at 7.30pm on the 2nd November 2022, restricted to 40 players and 30 crew.
