Greetings

       This is going to be hard.  Short of having people die this is about as
bad a thing as can happen to a Barony.  People are going to be very angry.  I
know I am.  My first reaction was to say "The Hell with it" and walk away.
I'm sure that a lot of other people feel the same.  Please Don't, we need
you.  This Barony has given me too much for me to turn away in it's time of
need.
       Ian.  I can't imagine how you must be feeling right now.  The burden
of leading us through this is going to fall largely on your shoulders.  I
know that you can do it.  I hope that you know that you can do it.  You have
my full support.  I'll help you in any way I can.
       We like to say that Northkeep is the Greatest Barony in the Known
World.  That's easy to say in the good times.  But it's the bad times that
show our true character.  Everyone is going to be watching to see how we deal
with this.  It's time to show Ansteorra that we really are as good as we
think we are.
       This could hardly have happened at a worse time.  We have an event to
run in two weeks.  We have a Crown coming to visit that I expect that most of
the barony is going to be very angry with.  Though we are hurting we have
guests coming.  Let's pull together and see to it that they have a good time.

       Northkeep is the Greatest Barony in the Known World.  It's time to
prove it.
