Welcome to our Lands

First of all, I’d like to say thank-you to all shire members and officers who have taken their time to attend monthly meetings, write reports, coordinate and volunteer at events, as well as invite others in to play with us.  I am proud to say since I started as Seneschal, I have brought in over 10 new people to either play and be a member and/or take a role in an officer position. Also, I as Seneschal, have made new connections with several people outside our shire and am thankful for new found friendships.

Lastly, looking back at the last 2 years, I introduced or encouraged social gatherings both art & science, archery, and sharing food and drink at local pubs.   I want to encourage us all to think how we can take the next step to be active, either in a main or deputy officer position and/or coordinating an event. If I was to share one morsel of knowledge it is to work in partners or groups.  If you need help or have an interest in something, please ask Their Excellency Eduardo or me, HL Asny Brunsdottir.

Time is ever moving and constantly bringing change, some for good and some for bad. But in this case, for good. Count Tam, our Equestrian Defender, has been ever vigilant in fearlessly patrolling our borders to kept us free from brigands, but this focus comes with a price, and exhaustion must be tempered with rest.

We must always have a Defender to watch our borders, so the time had come to find someone new to take up the reins. This last weekend, Five entrants ran a course that focused on martial skill, precision, and grace. One pair stood above the others. Lady Sebdann ingen Shinaig riding the mighty Orion showed that she had the strength of the Oak and the martial skill to be the next Equestrian Defender of Mountain Edge. Know peace that our borders will be well protected.

Meet our new Defender: Lady Sebdann ingen Shinaig
