[MR] Late Afternoon Royal Court Report, Storvik Novice & Unbelt Tourney, June 18, 2011

[Patty]

 Unto Her Gracious Majesty, Queen Seonaid; His Highness, Prince Cuan; and all others to whom these words may come, greetings from Lady Patricia of Trakai.

Following is my long-delayed Late Afternoon Royal Court Report for Storvik Novice & Unbelt Tournament, held on the date mundanely known as June 18, 2011, A.S. XLVI, in the glorious Barony of Storvik.

First of all, I offer my sincere apologies to everyone, especially Her Royal Majesty and the award recipients for the delay in getting this report out. There are no excuses for my behavior. I am sorry.

Lord Philipp Hartrat graciously served this court as the vocal herald, but I took responsibility for getting this report done.

First of all, Her Majesty welcomed all members of the populace who attended this fine tournament, and especially greeted Their Excellencies, the Baron and Baroness of Storvik, and all the other Barons and Baronesses who represented Their lands at this event.

Ingvarr Einarson, who made the long journey from the Shire of Spiaggia Levantina, was called before the Court and presented with his Award of Arms for his service.

James Carlyle, aka Carlisle McGraw Jammesson, appeared before Her Majesty and was inducted into the Order of the Silver Osprey for his skill in fighting. He is known throughout Storvik for fighting and brewing.

Her Majesty called the newcomers before her and gave them tokens.

Sir Richard de Montbrai, whom Their Excellencies of Storvik had just designated as Their first Court Painter, was welcomed into Her Majesty's presence and given a Silver Nautilus for the beautiful heraldic and decorative banners he has been painting for Storvik.

Lady Kunigunde von Darmstadt, another resident of Storvik, was called before Her Majesty and was made a Companion of the Opal for her service in chronicling, event stewardship, and other activities.
 
Fletcher ap Ivor, of Spiaggia Levantina, also received his Award of Arms from Her Majesty's hand for his service.

The children of Atlantia were called forth and were excited to receive toys from the Royal Treasure Chest.

Lord Richard Wyn, who graces both Bright Hills and Storvik with his bardic art, was called before Her Majesty. She then requested the presence of Her Order of the Pearl, and made Lord Richard a Companion of the Pearl, with a medallion handed down from Master Ruaidhri an Cu.

However, Her Majesty declared that the Order of the Pearl was still not complete, and summoned Lady Yseulte Trevelyn from Bright Hills into her presence. Lady Yseulte was made a Companion of the Pearl and received the medallion that had belonged to Mistress Martelle von Charlottenburg.

Once the members of the Order of the Pearl had taken their seats, Lord Janyn Fletcher, another resident of Bright Hills, was called into Her Majesty's presence and made a member of the Order of the Yew Bow. He received a scroll.

Next, Tibbie Croser, who lives in Storvik, appeared before Her Majesty and received her Award of Arms for her prowess in the art of rapier.

Gheilie filia Alwardi, who traveled from the Barony of Highland Foorde, received her Award of Arms for her contributions to the arts and sciences.

Lord Celric d'Ravelle was called before Her Majesty and inducted into the Order of the Sea Stag.

Again, I sincerely apologize for the tardiness of this report. It is complete to the best of my knowledge.

Respectfully submitted,
Lady Patricia of Trakai
Drakkar Pursuivant
