[Bordermarch] BAM

[Lathrop, Dave]

We have cast aside M'Lord and now heap accolades upon Kingdom Ansteorra's newest Lord, Lord Chrestien Brule; Vivat! 

When you stepped into TRM court to receive your AOA, you looked like a drowned rat, which is only appropriate for a mariner.

Good luck with your upcoming shoulder injury, but I was wondering, do you think the surgery will affect your brain stem what with it being so close to your shoulder and all?

HE Santiago

Ok folks., BAM was wet and nasty but I shall tell of my experience of
the time I was there.

I got there in time to unload my vehicle, get dressed and report to gate
for my shift. I was informed that I would NOT be the one taking the
cash..I was almost hurt, BUT then I realized that I would not be
responsible for it if I had nothing to do with it. SO Sewallis Seward de
Shirley , my First Mate, was assigned that position. I was left to visit
with those coming in and visit with the lovely Karen. Although she
stills owes me a name to a story she shared with me. I was present when
His Majesty arrived and was able to speak with him and welcome him to
the Barony of Bordermarch.

After my gate shift, I shared spirits with many people around a nice
fire.  My lady and I retired to fight for comfort with only one sleeping
bag. Although I was able to hold my lady tight, room to move was
extremely limited. We awoke to a very cold and wet morning and a tent
with a few leaks. Someone kicked one of our tents stakes loose during
the night and water entered and soaked a pillow and a cloak..

I made a few rounds in the rain and was honored when the Baron himself
asked me to notify the Barony's guest that court would begin at 10am. I
then walked the site telling all the news. I picked up a couple of
helpers along the way that assisted me during my trek. 

After court,the rain stopped and the fighting began. Due to an injury I
was unable to fight but was pleased to be allowed to marshal the rapier
fighters castle battles. After to battles the rain returned. 

I returned to my camp to find all 3 of my demons....children soaked to
the bone and all miserable. I knew that I needed to take my leave and
get them to warmer and drier conditions. I said my goodbyes and was then
told I would not be able to leave just yet. I began packing up and was
told I needed report to the Royal Pavilion by the battle field. When I
arrived, Her Majesties court was called to session and I was ordered to
appear before the court. I think I did was was expected since the
Queen's Champion didn't kill me. I was given an AoA. My eyes almost
began to leak or was that the rain? We shall never know.

After court we loaded up and headed home. I didn't realize how wet I
truly was. My boots were holding water and I still have water coming out
of my ears.

I had a wonderful time. I hope that all those that attened enjoyed it as
well.

In Service to the Dream,

Lord Chrestien Brule

Captain of "The Phoenix"
