From Our Arts & Sciences Champion

We would like to express our gratitude to the populace of the Shire of
Windale for a most excellent Collegium! Lord Egan and I were privileged to
attend and teach at the Collegium. Among the classes we attended were:
Hats (Mistress Christiana Haberdasher), Drumming (Lady Shelea and Baron
Edric), Stumpwork (THL Fiona), Inkle Loom (Lady Katerina), and Sex In the Middle Ages (Lady Eden). All of the classes were fascinating, and we look forward to sharing our newly acquired knowledge with the populace. Lord Egan also participated in a discussion of the proposed Aten Youth Rapier program, and will make a brief presentation on that subject at the earliest opportunity.

Yours In Service,
Lady Meadhbh

From Our Baronial Champion

To the Populace of Mons Tonitrus and all who read these words, I send thee great holiday greetings,

The Dragonshorde Tourney in Tir Ysgithr went very well, giving much needed funds to the baronial coffers for our cousins in the north. I commend House De La Roc for a job well done. I also would like to thank Lord Sean South of Keg's End for allowing me to help the "Spitting Dragon Turtle" win the monster tourney and enforce melee tactics throughout the day. A great huzzah also goes out to Sir Timugen who defeated the younger dragon in "single" combat.
If you did not receive earlier missives, I would like to remind all that Sunday fighter practices have been changed to 2 PM instead of the usual 4 PM. I am attempting to plan a combined war practice with Tir Ysgithr sometime this month, any suggestions regarding this are greatly encouraged.
I hope to see you all soon at our Yule Court in Elgin.

In Service to the Barony,
the Kingdom of Atenveldt,
and the Dream,

Lord Marius Connor o' Connaught
