[Northkeep] looking for stories...

S'okay Etienne - I thought he was too.  We can always use Sir Simon from
Bordermarch as an example.......  I believe he's Count Sir Master Master
Baron Don, isn't he?

Unless you are talking to Sir Finn about a knightly or marshallate matter,
or to Master Finn about a Laurelate or Pelicanate matter, or (as is always
the case) he expresses a preference in conversation with you, use the
highest ranking title. If you communicate with Count Finn, you can not
really go wrong. He can ask you you use a lesser title without any cause for
offence.

Ansteorra, Master of the Order of...", etc.
