[MR] Spring Assessment of the Army

[Jen Thies]

No doubt many of you have noticed that the Spring Assessment will be held on the same weekend as the next session of University. Countess Kari and I discussed options that would not include a conflict, but ultimately decided that this was His Majesty's will and the best way to accomplish his worthy goal of assessing the Atlantian troops journeying to Gulf Wars. Since there are four and a half hours on a highway between each site, we determined that the direct conflict would be minimal. 

Obviously I encourage as many gentles as are able and willing to come to University on March 5th in Caer Gelynniog. This is an excellent time for carpooling. Determine who in your local area wants to go to which event and then pile the fighters in a vehicle bound to Elchenburg Castle and the artisans and officers in a vehicle bound to central Virginia. We can all enjoy the day meeting both His Majesty's need to assess the army and the Royal Charter establishing the importance of learning. 

In Service,
Genevieve d'Aquitaine
University Chancellor

Your King, Prince and Warlords have scheduled a day of training in preparation for the upcoming Gulf War and Blackstone Raids.  This will not be a day for tourneys but for honing the skills of War.  Melee training, melee training and more melee training.
