[MR] An Account of the Hidden Mountain Baronial Court at Silver Chalice on 8 September, 2012

[E. L. Wimett]

As all martial and arts and science activities were completed at the waning 
of the afternoon, did Their Excellencies Thylacinus Aquila of Dair Eidand 
and Aodh Adendra Marland, Baron and Baroness of Hidden Mountain, hold court:

Her Excellency Etain of Sutherland, Baroness of Nottinghill Coill, was 
invited to join the Baron and Baroness.

Their Excellencies then welcomed those attending and commented on the events 
of the day.

The children there present were invited into court and encouraged to a 
gentle and courteous pursuit of Lord Robert the Banished, Hidden Mountain 
Seneschal, who had been entrusted with the Baronial Toy Chest.

Their Excellencies then summoned forth the newcomers and gifted each with a 
scroll to commemorate their first event.

The Baron and Baroness commented to all upon forthcoming events inside and 
outside the barony, including Southern War Practice, War of the Wings, 
Jester's Tourney and Feast of Saint Andrew.

Lord Hróðgeirr Hrafnsson was then summoned forth and inducted into the Order 
of the Azure Mountain in recognition of his contributions to the Arts and 
Sciences not only in Moorhaven but also in the barony and kingdom at large.

Lady Gepa of Sundragon came into court to make a presentation of beaded 
renditions of the armory of the Barony and its cantons.  Their Excellencies 
looked on these with great favor and bestowed on Lady Gepa the Award of the 
Azure Cloud not only for her beadwork but for her other services in the arts 
to Moorhaven during her tenure there.  The membership of Moorhaven was then 
summoned forth to participate in a presentation of a silver chalice to Lady 
Gepa as a gift from the folk of Moorhaven.

Their Excellencies next called into court the autocrat, Lord Aaron of 
Moorhaven, who bestowed the prizes for the various martial activities of the 
day and, with the aid of Lady Asta knarrarbringa, also bestowed prizes upon 
the victors in the Arts and Sciences competitions.

At this point, there being no further business, Their Excellencies took an 
enormous clap of thunder as a sign and closed court.

Thus did I observe and to this I testify as Their Excellencies' herald for 
this court.
