>
> HRM Lochlan and HRH Aaron standing alone on a bridge issued the challenge, 
> "Send as many as you need to fight us"
> The enemy sent their whole force in a massive charge, hundreds against 
> two. They should've brought more, for when a hold was called and the dust 
> settled our valient leaders still stood!
> Single combat was again offered by our King, then the Prince, and then by 
> Sir Kief. No one was brave enough to face them.
> In the field battles, units twice our size tried to crush us and failed 
> over & over. Some units tried to run from us but could not escape from our 
> blades. Against far superior numbers, the Ansteorran line stood strong. 
> Even when we were stretched so thin that each man had to cover huge gaps, 
> we all did our job and single fighters were able to repulse entire units.
> Crown & Heir with sword and shield lay waste to noble foes up and down the 
> line, going to where they were needed, killing & then moving on. Sir 
> Gaston & Sir Wilhelm's commands rang loud as our spearmen destroyed all 
> who came near.
> Our younger fighters, such as Orion & Thorsson proved their might and 
> stood as rocks against the battering tide of the foe.
> On the Rapier field, the story was similar. Our brave fighters were 
> outnumbered but not outclassed. Her Majesty led such a valient charge 
> against terrible odds and her warriors were so deadly that the enemy 
> actually applauded!
> Such feats as were done at Pennsic this year were a credit to our noble 
> heritage and would not shame the memory of those who have gone before us. 
> I stood in the line with as fine a band of brothers as I have ever had the 
> honor to serve with.
> Proud to be an Ansteorran!
