Baronial Court Report – Night under the Town

Unto Their Majesties, Cuán and Pádraigin, King and Queen of Atlantia; unto Their Excellencies, Galmr Ingolfsson and Eydís Herjolfrsdóttir, Baron and Baroness of Lochmere, and unto Triton Principal Herald also, greetings.

With the gracious consent of His Most Atlantian Majesty, Cuán, King of Atlantia, Their Excellencies of Lochmere held a baronial court on the afternoon of Saturday, March 31, 2012, on the fighting field of Night Under the Town.

First, Their Excellencies greeted the populace with warm words of welcome and thanked all who had attended the event. They then bade Their herald, Lady Máire inghean Dhúnchaín mhic Oisdealbhaigh call Lord Arghylle Buchanan (John Arghile) into court. For all his many acts of service to the Barony of Lochmere, Lord Arghylle was made a member of the Order of the Blasted Oak.

Next, Christian the Younger was called forth. Their Excellencies, aware of his skill in the martial arts and minded to honor Christian for that, made him a member of the Order of the Crab’s Claw.

For the service which Lord Gabrell Faircloughe rendered to the Barony, especially at Night Under the Town, Their Excellencies bestowed upon him their Award of Excellence. The blood, toil, sweat and tears shed by Lord Gabrell during the erecting of a tent on the site were especially noted by the Baron and Baroness.

Baron Galmr and Baroness Eydís then requested the presence in Their Court of Lord Alric the Mad and thanked him for his service as Their Rapier Champion. They then asked that Armegardj Sigirdsdottir come before them. Their Excellencies congratulated her on her fencing abilities and requested that she become Their new Rapier Champion as they were sore in need of one. The lady Armegardj assented and was presented with the tokens of her office.

Their Excellencies recognized Mistress Arianna Morgan, the event autocrat, and asked her to come into Their court. Mistress Arianna announced the winners of the various events and awarded the prizes to the victors. She also thanked most fulsomely those who had contributed to making Night Under the Town a most excellent event.

When Mistress Arianna had completed her business, the Baron and Baroness deemed Their court finished and so ended the Lochmere baronial court at Night Under the Town on Saturday, March 31, 2012.

Given under my hand,
Máire inghean Dhúnchaín mhic Oisdealbhaigh, Deputy Baronial Herald
