Jonathan and Willow had decided to give me a Court Barony at Queen's 
Champion.  Then they discovered that I was moving to Trimaris before then, 
and would not be at an event before leaving.

So Queen Willow came to Dance Guild with a scroll proclaiming me a Court 
Baron from that moment, but with precedence to date from the Queen's 
Championship one month later.  The Barony was re-given at Queen's Champion 
(yes, OF COURSE I came back to Ansteorra for Queen's).

So I was allowed to wear a coronet, and to be called "Your Excellency", 
starting on September 20, but it was made official on October 13.  I 
receieved a Zinaida scroll at Queen's, and both scrolls are currently 
hanging on my wall.
