ANST - Royal Huntsman

[harry billings]

Ok my turn and this is not ment vindictiv, just my side. I drive some times
meany hours sit through 2 courts fix some sort of meal if feast dosen't
appeal try to watch some of the fighting be a cold day when I am in a circle
meet with the kingdom marshal if he wishes try to help new archers. All
archery shoots that I hold that are at a stated time are scheduled so that
most of the fighters can also shoot can you say mid to late afternoon.
