[Moo] Fwd: Baronial Court Report from Defending the Gate 3/27/2010

[Brian Bertrand]

 Let all pay heed to the truth of my words as I, Bertran de Saint Jean,
Herald of Stierbach, relate the events of the Court of their Excellencies
Flathri and Rhonwen, Baron and Baroness of Stierbach, held in the afternoon
during the Canton of Sudentorre's Defending the Gate.

After their Magesties opened their Court and addressed a few items they
graciously allowed Baronial court to be opened.

His Excellency then bade welcome to the populace as is his custom and gave
hints of dire portents to come.

Richard McClure of Hadley Hall was then summoned before their Excellencies
and awarded the Bull and Crescent.

The autocrat, Baroness Cairistiona, then came forth to announce the winners
of the day's competitions.

Baroness Cairistiona then presented evidence of the presence of subversive
agents from the Barony of Sacred Stone to Baron Flathri in the form of a
phoenix medallion.  At this, His Excellency revealed that he had been
monitoring with concern the allegations made by his cousin, Axel. After
conducting a secret investigation, it was discovered that Sacred Stone had
in fact been plotting to steal calves from the secret cattle farm where
the famed Stierbach Red Bulls are bred.  His Excellency then deemed with
sadness that his only recourse would be to declare war on the ambitious and
insolent Sacred Stone.  His Magesty then declared that while he portended
that the armies of Atlantia would be in the hands of his heirs ere the first
blow was struck in this conflict, his personal household would stand with
his loyal friends of Stierbach in the coming conflict.

Lord Sigmani Rigven then returned the Dreamer's Cup to their Excellencies,
and was awarded a Minotaur for his efforts acting as her Excellency's
pavassier at Pennsic.

Finally Lady Ruyiah epsi Otel was given the Dreamer's Cup, and Baronial
Court was closed.

Cross-sectional studies show that 100% of Russian Roulette players surveyed
had suffered no ill effects from participation.

More conservative longitudinal studies indicate the same, although it should
be noted that these studies had a high attrition rate, with 16% of
respondants being unavailable for the follow-up survey.
