[MR] Royal Court Report - Royal Archery

[Jim/Mathias]

Greetings to the populace of fair Atlantia.

On this last Saturday, the 12th of May, it was my honor and privilege to
serve His Majesty, Bryan, as Court Herald at Royal Archery Championship.  In
the early evening, after the shooting competitions were done, His Majesty’s
court was opened.

First, His Majesty called forth Challys of Green Lion Bay and awarded her
arms by inducting her into his Order of the King's Missiliers.

His Majesty then graciously allowed Their Excellencies Stierbach to conduct
their Baronial Court, which shall be reported separately by my most noble
colleague, Master Siegfried McClure.

His Majesty then summoned Damiana Morena and Oswin the Forgetful and
presented them their medallions of rank as Archers.  He then awarded arms
to Lady Damiana.

The next to be summoned was Wanda Ostojowna, whom His Majesty presented
with her medallion as Marksman, and inducted her into the King's Missiliers.

Lord Godai Katsunaga and Lord Grimm Tokesson were called forth and
presented with medallions as Bowmen Elite.

His Majesty then summoned Lord Janyn Fletcher of Lancastreschire, presented
his medallion as Grand Bowman Elite, and inducted him into the Order of the
Opal.

Dietrich Saphir zum Drache was called into court, and His Majesty awarded
him arms by inducting him into the King's Missiliers.

His Majesty then called Lord Ghijskijn Van den Vaerst and Lord Ivarr
Ffening (also known as Thorgislsson), and then summoned the Order of the
Yew Bow to accept these two worthies into their ranks.

Finally, His Majesty called forth his Royal Archer and Archery Champion,
Lord Valgard av Mors, to announce the winner of the day’s competition.  Lord
Karl von Königsberg was called forth, and Lord Valgard presented him with
the regalia of his office.  His Majesty then asked Karl if he would be
willing to also serve as his Archery Champion, to which Lord Karl agreed,
and took his place behind the throne.

There being no further business, court was then closed.

This report is complete and correct to the best of my recollection.

Lord Mathias von Oldenburg, Pursuivant-at-Large

I would like to thank Talorgen Hersir nepos Wrguist, Sea Dragon Herald, for
his assistance as second.
