<DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Subject:</B> [Ravensfort] Seawinds
Defender</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>This past weekend Thalassa and I traveled South to the lands of
Seawinds to support their Defender event. The site was gorgeous, nice
trees all around, and the weather proved to be fantastic!! It was a
small event, about 75 people or so in attendance, so it was very close and
intimate for all involved.<BR>Thalassa and I were honored to do the list
mistressing for the Rapier Tournament. There were 8 fighters signed up,
and it was a great tournament!!! The Chivlaric had about as many, and
from our position they seemed to be having a good time! There was a good
turn out for Archery as well where Thalassa was also list mistress, a good
time was also had by all there! <BR>Also during court Mistress Hillary
received a Sable Thistle and your very own Mirabelis received her Sable Crane!
<BR><BR>Because I am not quite the writer, I am going to copy the event report
from Lord Wayland:<BR><BR><PRE>Seawinds Defender Champions:<BR>Chivalirc: Centurion Alexius!<BR> <BR>Rapier: Don Mateo Montero de Madrid!<BR> <BR>Arts and Sciences: Honorable Lady Caitriona inghen mhic Lochlainn!<BR> <BR>Gustatory: Honorable Lady Oksana Goncharova<BR> <BR>Archery: Lord Kurosh al-Din<BR> <BR>Bardic: Lord Hallgeirr Olafsson<BR> <BR>Also, a stick horse challenge was held to entertain the Ladies Tea. The <BR>competitors were blindfolded and had to ride through a Saracen head <BR>course, guided by the enthusiastic cheers of the Ladies. Riders were <BR>timed and the fastest was none other than the son of Their Excellencies <BR>from Loch Soilleir.<BR>-Our newest and probably youngest ever, Equestrian Defender - Connor <BR>MacCaelin,<BR> <BR>Congratulations to all of our newest champions!<BR> <BR> <BR> Duke Kein MacEwan did a great job of running the chivalric list. We <BR>fought in a wonderful variety of scenarios. A truly challenging and <BR>exciting tourney!!!!!<BR> <BR>His Excellency Don Caelan and Lorenzo of Bryn Gwlad ran the rapier <BR>tourney. There were a -ton- of rapier fighters! I overheard plenty of <BR>talk afterwards about how much all enjoyed it.<BR>Speaking of rapier fighters . . . My sympathy to any who missed Lisette <BR>in what I hear was her first archery competition! She really brings so <BR>much enjoyment to all around her!<BR> <BR>Mirabelis, Sonya and Thalassa were fantastic list mistresses. My <BR>co-autocrat Yuming, got to herald court for her first time ever and was <BR>simply amazing!<BR> I'm so glad everyone chipped in and worked like crazy to make sure <BR>this event was so enjoyable. We only had a few small glitches and each <BR>time there was another person ready to jump in and help get things <BR>done. Way to pull together guys!<BR> Many thanks to Their Excellencies Caelan & Rhiannon of the Loch and <BR>Baroness Suzanne from Bjornsborg for their royal presence, help and <BR>fellowship.<BR> <BR>Wayland<BR>Event Steward<BR> </PRE><BR>
