As Namron's outgoing bard, I wish to second all that His Excellency
has said here. Especially the part about the brewers... er, I mean,
um... no, no, that is exactly what I mean. *snicker*
At any rate, it has truly been an honor to represent the fine Barony
of Namron as Bard for the past year, and I encourage all who are able
to come!

...SO looking forward to it! :D

check carefully - you might have blacked out and killed it.
