[MR] Tournament of the Courtier

[~ Duncan]

"...the first and true profession of the courtier must be that of arms..." - Baldessare Castiglione

The Companions of the Order of the White Scarf of Atlantia, the Provosts of the Academie d'Espee are willing and able servants of the Crown and Populace of Atlantia. And while our collective service has many facets, the true end-measure of our Order is Prowess.

Therefore, we Invite all those who would doubt this to present yourselves at Hawkwood's Second Baronial Birthday for the Tournament of the Courtier, wherein all available Companions shall stand and hold the field against all comers, without let or hindrance. 

For those who wish, critique and pointers will be given and shewn in the Arte of Defense, but strictly for those who ask. Otherwise, friendly and hard-fought competition-at-arms will be the order of the day. Let every stout and stalwart Scholar, Free Scholar, Friend of the Academie, or any who wishes come to test his mettle against many of those accorded best in Kingdom and Society. 

Let us shake hands, be friends, draw swords and set to. Let challenges be made, and received. Let the clash and ring of arms be sounded throughout the Kingdom. 

We Invite you, and Challenge you, to come and show your mettle at the Tournament of the Courtier, at Hawkwood's Second Baronial Birthday, on the 20th of May. 

Baron Duncan Gregor MacGregor, Baron of Hawkwood
Companion of the Order of the White Scarf
