[Ponte Alto] Challenge of the Heart

[Connor Sinclair]

To all good gentles of fair Atlantia, do Lord Connor
Sinclair de Winterfell, Lord Jonah Mac Coghlin, and
Lord James de Biblesworth, send greetings and crie a
challenge to all such able bodied knights, squires,
and men at arms to meet our emprise of three and
attend the deed of arms known as the Challenge of the
Heart (http://challenge.duncarraig.net/ ), upon the
twenty fifth of June A.S. Four and Thirty, within the
borders of the Barony of Dun Carraig. Where upon we
three shall stand as Tennans for our patroness, Her
Excellency Belphoebe de Givet, Baroness of Ponte Alto,
and meet all challengers either in melee teams of
three or singular, as it pleases our noble companions
in arms, in martial contests and in accordance with
the rules of the list.

We ourselves shall be arrayed in cotes of sable,
bearing three lions argent, over our harnesses and on
the outside of our tents will be hung our shields
blazoned with our arms. Lord Connor Sinclair de
Winterfell, bearing sable, on a fess gules fimbriated
between three fleurs-de-lys a lion passant guardant
argent. Lord Jonah MacCoghlin bearing, sable, on a
chief argent a lion passant guardant gules, three
hands argent. Lord James de Biblesworth, bearing per
pale gules and azure, crusilly argent. Whoever may
choose to tourney with us, has only to come, or send
anyone, that day to touch either or all of these
shields, according to thine own courage.  Everyone who
may come, or send to touch our shields, may also give
their names and titles, or their team’s name so that
it may be cried out honourably before combat and
recorded for our most excellent patroness.

We do humbly entreat all such knights, squires, and
men at arms, as may accept our challenge, to believe
that we do so, not in presumption, or out of pride, or
with malice forethought, but only so to experience
such honourable company that we make acquaintance of,
and most especially to honour the love that we bear
for our devoted and loving wives and the sweet grace
of our most worthy and noble patroness. 
Set this day 23rd of March, A. S. Four and Thirty, by
the hand of Lord Connor Sinclair de Winterfell, squire
to His Excellency Sir Thomas of Calais of the noble
house of Lion’s Keep, from the Barony of Ponte Alto,
in the Kingdom of Atlantia.
