You know, I've heard nothing but good things about the Laurel Prize
Tourney, and I remember the first one being a great deal of fun even
though I didn't participate in the displays or the fighting. There's a
need for it, and it _is_ different from the A&S competition routine
which so many people dislike. I wish they would have more like it.

Not entirely true. I remember. Interkingdom, wasn't it? And you
won your own prize, those marvelous embroidered circles.
I was thrilled. :-)
