<DIV>Greetings Elfsea and unto Her Grace, Duchess Julia!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I agree wholeheartedly with your words. Lady Cassandra has indeed done a
marvelous job, during a challenging time, and has our sincere thanks! We wish
you a prosperous future and look forward to seeing you as often as your schedule
allows.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Likewise, the number of quality candidates who showed an
interest in serving Elfsea in this vital capacity was inspiring and we have no
doubt that our barony will thrive with so many supportive, talented
individuals ready to lend assistance.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We are confident that HL Rixende will continue to enrich Elfsea as
Seneschal, just as she did while serving as Arts & Sciences minister.
Her time here in Elfsea has been one of constant work and dedication to Kingdom,
Crown and Barony. We are delighted to have her fire and vitality brought
to this important position. We look forward to a
close, productive relationship and invite all to help her, help the barony
achieve all it can.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Armand & Ameline</DIV>
<DIV>Baron & Baroness of Elfsea</DIV>

<DIV>Greetings, Elfsea!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>First, I would like to begin by thanking Lady Cassandra for her service
to Elfsea. She served your Barony well and performed her duties
brilliantly! </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Secondly, I would also like to thank all of the candidates who applied
for the Elfsea seneschal position. It is wonderful to witness
so many people willing to step forward to take this office. (It is
not always an easy task.) Elfsea should be very proud of its populace!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>All the resumes were impressive with each candidate possessing
virtues which would have most certainly led Elfsea to a higher standard.
And while only one could be chosen to succeed Lady Cassandra, it was
decided to give the office to the HL Rixende.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The chief duty of a seneschal is to promote harmony and provide support
so that a group may continue to grow and prosper. I am certain the
peers, nobles, and populace of Elfsea will lend the HL Rixende the
support and guidance necessary to ensure the success of the Barony.
For my part, I am confident that the HL Rixende will be a very effective
Seneschal and will serve Elfsea to the best of her abilities. I have
faith in her and in Elfsea!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>In Service, I remain,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Duchess Julia</DIV>
<DIV>Central Regional Seneschal</DIV>
<DIV>Emergency Replacement Kingdom Seneschal</DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
