Hear ye, hear ye! Come gather ‘round to hear of the mysterious, cryptic, and the oh so beautiful whimsy that is the Voynich Manuscript! Come, come, hurry now! Come lean your ear close as the Damsel Nikki of Rae and the Maiden Samara of Lei Dawn speak of the wonders of this mystical codex and of a tantalizing reward for a few lucky participants. To wet ye whistle, the Damsel Nikki will tell of her travels to the great metropolis of Seattle and the trinkets she procured at the market, before the Maiden Samara fantasizes of a great journey across the sea. They shall battle boredom with plague ridden rats, create a codex of their own, or perhaps just tell the crowd about one. Well, perhaps it best if it is just the latter. Do any of ye ladies or hoppers believe themselves wise enough to crack the mysterious text? To be brave, nay, foolish enough to try their hand? Come, gawk at the fine drawings of the Voynich Manuscript! The reward will be sitting on the stand next to the Snake Oil in the land of Instagram.
