For more than twenty years, a proud Kingdom chose its Queen's Rapier Champion.

>From across the lands, they came, for Her Majesty stood in need of a champion of the blade; one who would defend her with wit, word, and weapons if need be.

And Ansteorra prospered, and life was good.

Far to the East, but not so far as the Kingdom of the East, another Kingdom watched.

Some ideas take time to be recognized.

But finally, another proud Kingdom chose its Queen's Rapier Champion. From across the lands, they came, for Her Majesty stood in need of a champion of the blade; one who would defend her with wit, word, and weapons if need be.

And Atlantia prospered, and life was good.

And time passed. Most of an entire year, in fact.

And again, for only the second time in the history of the Kingdom, they gathered.

>From across the lands, they came, for Her Majesty stood in need of a champion of the blade; one who would defend her with wit, word, and weapons if need be.

Blades were shined, masks were inspected, gear checked, all of it. For it would not do to attend in less than one's best. This tournament, more so than most, depended heavily on the accoutrements of the participants as well as their skill.

And a Kingdom held its breath, and watched.
