>Unto Our Barons and Baronesses, worthy Peers, and Our true and noble subjects do Cuan and Padraigin, King and Queen of the Atlantians, send greetings this 28th day of September AS XLVI. Know that We intend to to cause to be held at the end of the first week of November upcoming, in Our Barony of Tir-y-don, a grand tournament. The victor of said tournament shall be declared heir presumtive to the throne of Atlantia. Each combatant shall fight for the honor of a consort. The victor's consort shall likewise be named Our successor. We have heretofore invited several worthy gentles that We would hold up as examples of prowess, courtesy and nobility to enter the list. Now We would extend that invitation and summon all Our Dukes, Counts, Viscounts, Earls, Knights, Barons, Baronesses, and other gentles of coat armor to defend the strength of Our Kingdom by contending in Our Crown Tournament. 
>As We would not see one drop of Atlantian blood needelessly or impiously spilled, Our tournament shall be contested with weapons of peace. While thrusts to the armored body and limbs shall be permitted, We are of the opinion that thrusting to the face is properly reserved for war, and as such, is specifically disallowed. The finals of the tournament shall be fought best of five bouts. The senior shall choose first, and no weapon form may be employed more than once until and unless a fifth match is required to decide the outcome. 
>Letters of Intent to participate in Crown Tournament should be submitted to Us and the Kingdom Seneschal by October 15th. Letters must include the following: 
>SCA and Modern names of the cobatant and consort 
>SCA membership numbers for each 
>Mailing address, email address and phone numbers for each 
>We reserve the right to accept letters past the deadine up to and including the day of the tournament. While letters may be sent electronically, Her Majesty will be awarding a prize for the best hand-written/decorated letter of intent.

>Cuan Rex, Padraigin Regina
