[Ansteorra] re:Amass Great Wealth at Queen's Champion!

[amberd at flash.net]

Dearest Don Eule

My, my... That will be quite a sum of coinage floating around Queen's
Champion Tournament. I am heartened to know that Bryn Gwlad has such
a worthy guard to help protect us from cutpurses. I do worry about
betting getting out of hand with all those courtiers sporting
blades... chuckle... of course, I plan on being one of those
courtiers so I suppose I shouldn't speak ill of them.

I am confident that between Bryn Gwlad's Guard, the Queen's Guard,
and the King's Guard all should go without incident.
