By Magistra Nicolaa de
Bracton
Coronation took place in Ben Dunfirth
on April 25. The entire event was put together on short notice, but other
than a lack of indoor fighting space,
the site was quite pleasant and made more so by the presence of a balcony.
Etian and Valfreya ended their reign
with grace, hugs, and a few tears, making way for the coronation of Roak and
Jocea. Wearing Irish-style clothing,
their Majesties were crowned in the hall, amongst the people, and received
their fealties while standing on a large “rock” brought in for the purpose.
Senex Crepitus ran a lunch counter
with especially tasty food, as well as a fundraising raffle. Several new members went “under the yoke” and
were presented with their Roman military tunics as a token of their status.
One other Septentrian highlight was
the squiring of Baroness Dagmar Halvdan to Sir Wat of Sarum. (A photo can be
found elsewhere in this issue).
During evening Court, Baron Brand
stepped down from the office of Trillium Herald just in time to be appointed
Queen’s Champion. Magistra Nicolaa
stepped up as Trillium Herald. As his last piece of
business, Baron Brand promoted THL Cainder and Lady Liadin to full-status Heralds in token of their long
service to the College
of Heralds .
