Here begins the report of the Court of Robert and Denise, King and
Queen of Atlantia, held on the field of Pennsic before the gate of the
fortress, upon the seventeenth day of August A.S. XL (2005). Bright was
the day and assured was victory for the Midrealm, since the staunch
warriors and masterful archers of Atlantia stood as its allies. The
business of the court follows.
Three worthy squires of Sir Bryce de Byrum were recognized for their
loyalty and labors.
Lord William Thomas Opal
Ulieg Opal
Lord Malcom MacCallum de Moffat Opal
Thereafter Sir Bryce was called before Their Majesties and King Robert
bestowed favor upon him.

The dread Duke Michael of Bedford was summoned by The Throne and given,
despite his muttered protestations, an honor that some say has long
been due.

King Sean and Queen Caryn of Artemisia beseeched Their Majesties of
Atlantia to create the true worth of Mistress
Jeanne Tenneur de Bec as a Baroness of the court. Therefore, by the
hands of Their Majesties Artemisia and with the consent of King Robert
and Queen Denise, this goodly deed was done.

Their majesties of the Midrealm, Alaric and Noelle, presented fair
gifts to Atlantia in recognition for the goodly friendship between our
two kingdoms and the aid Atlantia had given in securing victory for the
Midrealm upon the fields of Pennsic.
Representatives of the noble House of Bellatrix appeared in court by
permission of Their Majesties and announced the retirement from our
society of Their Graces Stephan and Niobe, may happiness travel with
them until our paths shall meet again. Henceforth, Master Efenwealt
Wystle and Maîtresse Aénor d'Anjou shall stand as leaders of the
Eastern branch of the household in their stead.
Several sundry other awards were bestowed by Their Majesties, to wit.
Lord Dunstan LeHeryngmongere Pearl
Lady Blitha of Wolfhou Golden Dolphin
Lord Eckehard Thurn Opal
Baroness Julianna Fiorentini Fountain
Master Geofrey Gamble KAE
The Company of the Silver Spindle presented Queen Denise with a finely
made scarf and King Robert with a well knit pouch.
A host of warriors were awarded the Shark’s Tooth, as follows.
Magnus Tindal Kevin of Thornbury
Mungoe McKlinchey Shea of Clan Ebonwoulfe
Henry West Eduard of Flaming Bolt
Gareth of Ebonwoulfe Robert Pine
Pagan Grendal Eckehard Thurn
Luther Josephus Ulf’r Edmunderson
Ragnar Ribcracker Alexander le Elan
Achbar ibn Ali
Rousel Tavernier
Watkyn of Kent Coral Branch
Seamus McCrae King’s Missiliers
Baroness Aryanna Hawkyns of Lochmere received a long promised scroll
acknowledging her right to bear arms.
Lord Brian Killian the Red Kraken
Their Majesties then thanked those who had aided with the Children’s
Fete.
Alexandre de Tourouvre AoA
Eloise le Gardeur AoA
This many matters of importance having been accomplished and the day
having aged to evening, Their Majesties bid the Order of Chivalry to
take council with them and then closed Their court. It is possible
that at this meeting of the Chivalry it was decided to place the good
Justus fitz Ternon, Royal Bard of Atlantia, on vigil to contemplate
joining that most august order (an event which indeed took place upon
the 18th night of August, A.S. XL, as I beheld myself) but as I was not
present at that meeting of the Knights I can only speculate.
In addition it has come to my attention that the good Grimmr Brathoar,
who could not attend court, was awarded the Shark's Tooth and the Sea
Stag upon the battle field, where he had won great honor.
Long live King Robert and Queen Denise!
Your servant for better or worse,
Olagh Ruaidhri an Cu
