competition for the Chivalric Defender (or Warlord) of the Steppes, our own
Lord Lochlann Dunn faced Count Timotheos Kalamanos in an exciting fight. Lord
Lochlann did win the title becoming, I’m told, only the second non-knight
to win it (the first being Duke Inman MacMoore).<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

style='font-size:11.0pt'>HL Ker Megan of Taransay, known as Pyro, won the
Novice Shoot on Saturday. Not being content with that, she went on to enter the
finals of the Warlord Archery Defender against Sir Carl and Gavin the Younger.
In the finals they shot a dummy knight in armor (choose your own name here)
with a helm that had two eye slits that were about 1 inch by 3 inches
horizontally each. This was at about 30 yards. Only an arrow in the eye slit
counted and the first one to accomplish that won. It took four rounds with the
competitors getting tighter and tighter groupings around the eyes before Pyro
finally landed in the eye slit. The Baroness of the Steppes said she is the
only person to ever win both the Novice and the Defender competitions at the
same event. She thought Pyro was also the first woman to win that title.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
