[Ansteorra] Nordsteorra

[Jolene Graves]

Greetings,

While I understand the passion that drives this topic, I do not believe we
should feel compelled to ignore a very natural development in our
organization. The very discussion of principality should not be viewed with
derision nor should the individuals be anathematized.

The discussion--and plausible formulation--of a Principality in northern
Ansteorra is the natural consequence of people finding a common, local
identity and allowing it to grow at whatever pace it will. Such discussions
are not treason--they are growth.

I am not a fan of email discussions of this gravity...I much prefer seeing
and hearing people. In token of this, I will discuss this matter only
face-to-face in the future--and I for one will not discuss principality in
fear or in shame. Hopefully, others will feel as comfortable.

Regards,
H.L. Tadhg

p.s. Her Grace is right...Nordsteorra really doesn't scan!
