For what it's worth, I don't like the idea of making the Queen's Champion
tourney for Dons only. That is like saying they are the only ones worthy.
I have never held a belt, but when I fought heavy in Calontir, I was Queen's
Champion there several times.
Are the wearers of belts and scarves the only who may stand in the name of
honor? I don't think so.
Don't misunderstand, this may sound like I'm angry... I'm not. I just
wanted to point this out.
