The Coronation of Etain au Naval and Valfreya Greenspeare 2008

By Magistra Nicolaa de Bracton


The March of St. Martins hosted the Coronation of Their Majesties Etain and Valfreya on a beautiful September day.  This group always comes up with clever site tokens, and this event was no exception—I don’t think I’ve ever received a pair of knitted slippers as a site token before.   Their Majesties Aaron and Rustique held their final court, which was marked by various functionaries falling over dead throughout.  Having “gotten the message”, they left in a hurry, leaving the crowns on the thrones and the Barons, Baronesses, and the baronial champions to guard the hall.  The wait was not long, however, as Etain strode forward and claimed the King’s crown for his own.  He then called forth his lady wife, Valfreya, to complete the transition.  During their first Court, TRM recognized five people who had been of great help to Her Majesty at Pennsic: Lord Streonwold Wulfesbana was recognized for his general support, and Lady Seonag NicThomais, Lady Rusulka Galbraith, Baroness Adrielle Kerrec, and Baroness Gaerwen were recognized for helping her when she suffered heatstroke on the field.
