Nevermind we are living in the 21st century, there are still people that see the world in its ancient colours and dream about epic battles, secrets of the past and of course the bards and their songs.

The guild is a fast growing society, which embraces in itself all those fantasy art and literature lovers, the music of Blind Guardian, the beauty of nature and last but not least J. R. R. Tolkien's world.
With the help of such a society, which in no way can be called secret or closed, people with common interests can share their views on books, movies, music, art, games and everything that is considered fantasy. For those who cannot attend Guild's regular meeting on Friday night at Adams's Pub in Sofia, there is a special forum created.
The guild is built on strict hierarchy consisting of six ranks. To climb a level up members have to fight in some way to get one of the eight prizes. One can grab a prize by publishing his own works on Guild's site.
Of course those are just a few of the things the Guild represents. Its members from all over Bulgaria take part in several interesting projects, one of them being the LARP game, which is a long-term initiative.
The people behind this amazing organization are Nikolay Petkov, aka Odin, Petar Dedinski, better known as Kalandor and Kiedis - Emilian Parvanov.
And if you feel like plunging into the startling world of fantasy, magic and art, you can just go and look for them in the woods. Or just look around you.
