Hillshire is named for Hillthelstan the Bold, a warrior of great virtue and repute, who saved our village from a monster. Hillthelstan's great combat with the creature is honored each year at the 3 Barons Fair where the Barons Red, Green and Blue, compete for the privilege of winning the relic associated with him, the Spear of Hillthelstan the Bold and holding it for the coming year. It is said a successful competition for the relic insures a good harvest and prosperity, not only for the barony that holds it, but the village as well.
