Court Report: 17th Baronial Birthday

Court Report: Masters of Defense

Morning Court

In the morning of the event Their Majesties, Janos and Rachel, did hold court. Leave was given to Their Excellencies, Ælfgar and Aryanna, to hold court.

The Last Court of Ælfgar and Aryanna

Baroness Aryanna announced her intention to retire to one of her country manors and to live in seclusion. But before she did so, she and Baron Ælfgar called several worthies of the Barony into their court to reward them for their work.

Their Excellencies next gave Mistress Arianna Morgan permission to approach. Mistress Arianna did so and presented Her Excellency with a bouquet of flowers and the thanks of the Barony.

The Champions of the Barony were asked to stay and assist the new Baron and Baroness whom Their Majesties were minded to name. The Champions assented.

Their Excellencies requested Lord Quentin de Rath to come into Court and to care for their coronets and give them into the keeping of Their Majesties.

As a final act, Ælfgar bid the herald read a proclamation rescinding his pardoning of political prisoners and ordered them to return to whatever prison, dungeon or cell they had been held in. It should be noted that Aryanna did not sign said proclamation.

In her final gracious gesture before retiring to the country, Aryanna asked Their Majesties to pardon Ælfgar and withdraw Their writ against him.

There being no further business, so closed the final court of Ælfgar Greyseas and Aryanna Hawkyns, Baron and Baroness Lochmere.

Their Majesties Writ Against Ælfgar Greyseas

Their Majesties voiced great displeasure against Baron Ælfgar Greyseas, and the populace trembled at Their wrath as disclosed in the following writ:

KNOW ALL to whom these presents are made public and as such serve as the
words of your moved Sovereigns, that WE, JANOS and RACHEL, Monarchs of
this Realm of Atlantia, issue and do publish this INDICTMENT against OUR
subject, Ælfgar Greyseas, lately invested as Baron Lochmere, and that in
further testament to this WARRANT, WE do state as follows;

That the ACCUSED Ælfgar Greyseas, acting upon his own want and volition,
in the year Anno Societatis 38, did release and exculpate various and
sundry Prisoners of the Body Politic held in OUR dungeons, as to grant
them freedom and protection from the CROWN’s Justice.

That further, the ACCUSED did give comfort to these base villains, with
neither let nor leave of The CROWN, an Offense against the peace of our
Sovereigns, Their Crowns and dignity.

That further, the ACCUSED did act against Regulae Juris, that is against
the rules of law and did make offense, having committed Infamous Crimes
and Misdemeanors to wit: mopery, grand mopery, goitry, felonious goitry
with intent to creep, and Crimen Magestatis.

And it is further OUR command that the ACCUSED, Ælfgar Greyseas be taken
into CUSTODY where forever he be found, and brought before OUR Court for
disposition of OUR Justice. And may God have mercy upon his soul.

Done this Day by OUR Hand,

Janos, Rex
Rachel, Regina
