Greetings fellow h(H)eralds and all others who scan these words. This past
weekend at Tempio's Samhain Stew I heralded Court for Their Majesties with
Her Excellency Regina
residing in their absence. The question I have is in closing the court. I
really flubbed up and would LOVE to know the correct procedure. I closed as
follows:
VIVAT REX
VIVAT REGINA
(LONG PAUSE, was I to Vivat Her Excellency for having run the Court?)
VIVAT TEMPIO
VIVAT ANSTEORRA
As I froze after vivating Her Majesty (and looked very silly) the populace
began shouting the Vivats for Tempio and Ansteorra. Gin turned to me and
said "Let's try again," so I did.
The Real question: DOES A COURT HERALD ASK A VIVAT FOR THE NOBLE HOLDING
COURT FOR THEIR MAJESTIES, and if so, WHERE DOES IT COME IN AT?
MANY, MANY thanks from a very flustered and highly embarrassed "acting"
court herald..
