The Original "War Without Enemies"[edit | edit source]
War of the Lilies is a week-long event held in the center of the Kingdom of Calontir near Kansas City, Missouri, in the middle of June. It has been said that Lilies is so much like a vacation, you may forget it is a war!
Lilies War is held at the Kelsey Short Youth Camp on the beautiful shores of Smithville Lake - about 30 minutes north of downtown Kansas City (and even closer to the KC airport). The site features open fields, separated by wooded areas and is nearly surrounded by a swimming lake that never closes.
Come join us for a week of battles, tournaments, classes, archery, medieval games, shopping, and nights of singing, dancing and reveling.

Seige Weapons[edit | edit source]
The siege community will be hosting a siege weapon building competition at Lilies War this year. If you are participating, you will bring your weapon or engine to the siege field to demonstrate its capabilities and show off your talents. Though of course we would love to see what it can do, it does not have to be a completed weapon nor does it have to be functional, so don’t worry if there’s still some progress that needs to be made. Works in progress deserve to be celebrated too!
Prizes for “Best in Show” and “Most Unique” to be given out and please don’t hesitate to reach out to me if you have questions about materials and building specifications if you intend on making your weapon able to be authorized on the battlefield or used for target siege.
I can’t wait to see what all of the amazingly talented artisans in this kingdom can do and I’m looking forward to seeing everyone for all of the siege activities we have planned for Lilies this year!
Yours in Service, Morgana
