[MR] Rumors

[Victoria Pringle]

I feel I must comment on a couple of these points, especially the one
about archery.  Anyone who actually knows Sinclair realizes how crazy it
is to say He doesn't support archery but for those of you who don't know
him personally, trust me when I say he is a fan of archery.  I have seen
Him at archery practice shooting, I have seen Him shoot at events (since
he has been on the throne), I have also seen the targets in his back
yard that he shoots at.  
He also brought the flier for Kingdom Archery Championship to some of
the local activities to show off what an incredible flyer it was and to
encourage our local archers to consider going.
I'm drawing a blank at the moment on SAAD, I know he shot the cross bow
and threw the atl-atl but I don't recall if he had time to do the thrown
weapons also or not.  Regardless, I know he has throwing axes and enjoys
thrown weapons as well. 
Speaking of the atl-atl, that is yet another weapon form that His
Majesty is skilled at and enjoys very much.

Anyone who thinks TRM's don't support archery obviously didn't talk to
Him while he was waiting for His bow to be repaired.  He was going a bit
stir crazy without His bow.

I just realized that I have not addressed Her Majesties support of
archery.  While She may not be as active of an archery as His Majesty
She has also been known to pickup a bow.  She is one of only a handful
of combat archers in the state.

Of course don't forget that both of Their children shoot archery and can
often be found on the range at events shooting or helping out.

Myth 3 - The retainer who organizes northern events would probably
disagree considering how many events she has handled.

Myth 4 - I'm sorry but that is just funny!  In the southern reaches of
the Kingdom it isn't uncommon to hear that you have to travel north if
you want to be considered for an order because most of the people in the
polling orders are up north.

I would invite anyone who doubts Their Majesties commitment to any
aspect of this game or Their love of this Kingdom to contact Them or
anyone who knows Them because if you believe any of this you have
obviously not spent time around Them.

Thank you if you actually took the time to read all of this :)

1)       Myth:  We made up the children of sitting monarchs award
specifically so we could give it to our children.

2)       Myth:  Sinclair and I do not support the archery community.
This
is proven by the fact that we did not attend Kingdom Archery
Championship
this past weekend.


3)       Myth:  We are not supportive of the Northern end of the
Kingdom.
 
Myth part 2:  We did not have our Crown Tournament in the North,
therefore
keeping the Northern end of the Kingdom out of the loop.

4)       Myth:  There is a Southern Plot to keep control of the Kingdom
in
the South and give no power to the North.


Fact:  I have always played in NC and SC.I have NEVER heard anyone say
anything about the South needing to take and keep control of the
kingdom.
Sinclair fought in about 8 Crown Tournaments before he won several of
which
were in Virginia and Maryland...not a good bet if you need someone to
ensure
the South wins.  I promise..this might have been said by a few people at
some event, but I HAVE NEVER heard a Peer or a member of the Royalty
(Monarchs, Heirs or Baronage) say this.

 

 

 

 

I would just ask that if you hear a rumor and you do not know it to be
true,
please give the Royalty the benefit of the doubt.  I have not met any
Past
Monarchs who ruled without caring for the people of Atlantia.  They are
actually some of the smartest, most caring people that I know.  Again,
if
you have a question or hear a rumor, please just ask!!

 

Thank you,

HRM Kari
