[MR] Disturbing Compliment

[maire_ohalowrane at mackermakkeep.com]

When we were in Drachenwald... our first event was at Hoenburg Castle on the
 Czec border. We were downloading our van and getting everything up into the
 main house.. we slept in the castle.. Our van didn't fit in the gate so we
 had to carry stuff up from basically the moat area hehe. And two very nice
 gents offered to help us.. didn't find out till later one was the King and
 the other became Crown Prince. It was crown tourney. The King was in garb
 but not wearing his crown.. I think he was still bringing his own gear up
 and not fully "dressed" hehe.

 At feast on Saturday evening, the newly crowned prince and two barons also
 helped with the clean up of the great hall.
