Who can say Elfsea shirks on taxes? :-) From a delicious lunch to highly
entertaining combat scenarios, to top-notch Artisan and Bardic competitions,
not to mention Archery....er....yes, don't mention archery. (Still a bit
traumatized there.) Speaking of traumatized, I believe the King of
Fools competition may have imparted a bit of that trauma to all. Some sights
were just too vivid. Hamish, you're a wee bit twisted, but
congratulations all the same on being named Elfsea's latest King of Fools.
(Perhaps a good physician can help diminish your unfortunate features
that bear striking similarity to one Lord Daniel Stewart.)

Elfsea's new Titled Artisan - HL Melisenda de Barcelona of Tempio, with
a marvelously documented Funeral Feast, with tasty, attractive samples
to boot. There were 12 competitors with many, many expert-level entries that
upheld the quality and standards we seek in our champions. Well done
all!</SPAN></FONT></SPAN></DIV>

not only for the titled champions, but also other competitors as well in
evening court. Sir Tomas, for his dedication and protection of Elfsea's
borders. A fair maiden, whose name will soon be reported, made
many a deal to dominate the Rapier lists, and was almost undermined by Lord
Lochlan Dung, (who never fought a single Rapier bought by the way), bartered
a deal with His Majesty. Once again, young Gavin turned in an impressive
showing, finishing 2nd in the adult Archery competition and received a
Letter of Marque for the effort.</SPAN></FONT></SPAN></DIV>

accomplishing what no one else has, actually getting me into Rapier armor
for the first time ever and then providing a bit of instruction. A fine
memory I shall cherish for many moons to come..Sister Mea Culpa, the
pregnant lady of the cloth, Anastasia, "borrowing" the Star of Elfsea, under
the nose of the King, being impaled by young archers in a William Tell
shoot, and many many more memories (Jocelyn) will keep me smiling for a long
time to come. I trust the autocrats and coordinators can give proper credit
where it's due. from Lady Ker Megan at gate, to HL Druinne preparing lunch,
HL Aislyn, HL Fearghus & Lady Elspeth for a memorable archery shoot,
Lord Lochlan Dunn for a rowdy Heavy List and Lord Dirk for a lively Rapier
list and all the good folks who provided water, medical assistance and more.
Master Darius for heralding our courts and Donald, Rua, Master Oxlade,
Centurion Daire and everyone who helped with setup and tear down. Please
know you are all appreciated tremendously, Aaarrrrg. I know there are more
to thank and ask that everyone help me do so.</SPAN></FONT></SPAN></DIV>
