ES - We are back

[Fearghus]

Just to add to what Sean said, not only did the Arthurian Company do well,
we were rewarded with the the Kings Battle Ribbon that had been held by the
Lion Dragon Guard for the last two Gulf Wars. And Marmaduke broke his heel
in one foot and brused the other going over the castle wall. Vivat the
Arthurian Company.
