<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Messaging rapidly as we speak;
am on the phone with a loved one who called from field-side at Crown Tournament,
Rosenfeld!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Victory is won! We have Heirs
Apparent!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Aaron and Britta! The
Brides-Maid Aaron is now the Bride. He's come in "second"
in how many recent Crown Tournaments? Headed now to Duke-dom.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Britta was a bit injured in the chin,
if I got this correct, and is being carried in rather than walking on her
own.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Much roar of crowd in approval.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Final round was between Gunthar
and Aaron. Gunthar was fighting again for Sara Penrose, I believe... and
wouldn't *that* have also been a wonderful thing had they won
again?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>I am speaking briefly with
Her Radiant Majesty Valeria on phone who sends her love to all her precious
populace with the news that Her labor pains are complete and She has Her
heirs now! Her Majesty Ansteorra proclaims that all the rounds were very
clean.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Also Her Majesty is feeling so much
better now. She and Her Princess Heir Britta are receiving the best care
and attentions possible with help getting around.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Vivat Heirs!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Vivat Crown!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Vivat Ansteorra!</FONT></DIV>
