[MR] Royal Court Report: Coronation, Last Court of Havordh & Mary-Grace 9/8/01

[BATCOK at aol.com]

On a bright late summer morn, when the Sun shared the sky with the Moon and 
the omens were nigh for the end of their reign, Havordh Rex and Mary-Grace 
Regina did hold their final court.

They first received words of greeting from Daniel of Wales, keeper of the 
lands who told of it's history and welcomed our use of it.

Then they did engage in the following business as the fading moon fled the 
sky and the rising sun did move to claim it's place:

Mistress Minowara Kiritsubo - Order of the Laurel
Alanna O'Keefe - Award of Arms
Barktooth of the Short Beard - Award of Arms
Christian de Gente - Award of Arms
Lady Anne of Brantingham - Silver Nautilus
Micaela the Subtle - Award of Arms
Lady Aoife ni Mhaille - Silver Nautilus
Gunther von Drachenburg - Order of the White Scarf

Then her Majesty did call the ladies of her court forward to receive the 
Undine:
Baroness Denise Duvalier
Lady Gabrielle de Carcassone
Lady Anne of Brantingham
Lady Karen Larsdatter
Lady Ilse Brenner
Lady Tonwen ferch Morien
Lady Maura mac Pharlain
Lady Shelby of Blackrose
Lady Sorcha de Glys
Lady Lisette la Roux
Lady Brighid nic Thighearnain
Katherina Kristianova Volkho

Their Majesties then gave a Grant of Arms to Baroness Denise Duvalier

Then Her Majesty did call her Queen's Guard forward to receive the Undine:
Lord Kharstin von Werner
Baron Nikoli Dmitri Aidanov Dolgorukova
Lord Tristan von Schwarzwald
Lord Gaston du Valmont
Lord Iustinus Ombrokharhenos

Her Majesty then gave Mistress Cuanin Beornhelm an Undine

Their Majesties had their herald, Lord Michael Batcok, called forward and 
they did give him the Order of the Nonpareil

His Majesty did then give his Award of Excellence to:
Lord Edmund Sharpe
Sir (Kiegan) Mathias Brousard le Caignon

With this business completed did their Majesties release their Royal 
Household saving only Sir Kiegan and the Triton Herald to stand as witness to 
the next events.  For, as the omens foretold, the full weight of the crown 
did grow heavy on the brow of the king and madness overwhelm him.

His Majesty Havordh did have read a proclamation pardoning the free companies 
of Anglesea for all misdeeds, real or imagined.  These words did cause His 
Highness Galmr to come forward, express his unfavorable opinion of that 
action, and claim the Crown of Atlantia.  Queen Mary-Grace was escorted to 
safety by Sir Kiegan as King Havordh meet the fate decreed by the Omens.

So did the end of the reign of Havordh and Mary-Grace come to pass.  If any 
would claim a better memory of the event, let him speak to me at:
