<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=675153400-29082007>It was
created to be like a Lion of Ansteorra, but for those of the Barony of Elfsea
who have served greatly and create the dream through their research, dress, and
actions. This was done during the reign of Llywelyn and Xene (yup, that's me).
We already had the badge of the blue chalice with two gold wavies on it and it
wasn't being used by a tavern or guild at the time, so.....we used it. And, in
keeping with the Arthurian theme based on our founding Baron, Sir Arthur of the
Fenn and HE Robin, we decided that the Azure Grail of Elfsea was appropriate.
That's also where we got the idea for the Arthurian Company, the elite fighting
unit that was sworn in at Highland Games and released from service at
SpringFaire.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
