[SCA-BMDL] Baronial Court Report Pennsic 49

[Ben Cogan]

The following is the report of the Court of Their Excellencies Brandubh et
Hilderun, Baron and Baroness of the Barony-Marche of the Debatable Lands,
held at Pennsic War XLIX on the 7th day of August anno societatis 57 by
Lord Ronan Ó Conaill reporting herald seconded by Lord Reinhard Regenbogen,
and with thanks to Lord Niall Mac Raedwulf for serving as ethereal herald
and recording the proceedings.

The Baron and Baroness welcomed all to their court and reminded everyone of
the events at war that were to follow: champions tryouts and tournaments,
Vigils, Elevations, the Barony's bridge battle fighting unit, and the
Debatable Choir and I Genesii performances. They then bade the populace to
seek their comfort.

Their Excellencies first called forward Master Antonio de Luna to conduct
business before the court. Master Antonio then called forward Sayyid
Matthias de Lupo Corsi and took him as his protege.

Lord Patrokles Athenaios was next requested in attendance to be recognized
for his skill in the martial forms of heavy fighting, fencing, thrown
weapons, and archery. For this he was awarded an Iron Comet. Scroll by
THLady Sumayya al Ghaziyah.

Lord Godzimir the Golden was then bade to approach Their Excellencies so
they may recognize his service to the archery community and his
contribution to the arts with the founding of the Archers Guild. For this
he was given a Silver Comet and a scroll by THLady Gesa von Wellenstein
with words by Baron Alaric MacConnal.

Their Excellencies invited THLady Nicola Beese to attend them so they may
thank her for her service in running the Gold Key and Scriptorium West and
award her with a Gold Comet with a scroll by Mistress Graidhne ni Ruaidh.

Lord Yakub al-Musafir was then called upon to be recognized for his prowess
on the archery range and was awarded an Iron Comet. Scroll by Ihtizaz bint
al-Gani.

Their Excellencies next had Lady Astridhr Thorolfsdottir brought forth so
that they may show their appreciation for her service at troll, as a
retainer, helping with setup and clean up at events, and her general good
works behind the scenes. She was awarded a Gold Comet and scroll by THLady
Gesa von Wellenstein with words by Baron Alaric MacConnal.

Sir Maghnus an Chnoc na n'Iora was then invited before Their Excellencies
so they might speak on his deeds. Kindly old Sir Maghnus, venerable dead
elder of the College of Cour d'Or, with decades of holding office for the
good of the barony under his belt, and still remaining a steadfast and
reliable fighter at our practices was then inducted into the Order of
Copernicus, whereupon he made it known that he wished to take on the
moniker of the "Weird Uncle of the Barony".  Scroll by Lady Rose O’Tierrany
upon a text by Baron Alaric MacConnal.

Their Excellencies then invited the populace to join them on September 17th
for the Baronial Social to be held at Hawkeye Park.

Their Excellencies called forward all scribes and wordsmiths who
contributed to scrolls that went out during court to be recognized and
receive a token from Her Excellency.

Finally Their Excellencies were attended by Master Emrys Eustace, Lady
Arthes MacLeod, and Sayyid Matthias di Lupo Corsi who were thanked for all
of their works in serving as Baronial Camp Reeve, providing the food for
the post-court social, and helping maintain the Baronial camp respectively.

The court of Their Excellencies was then closed.

The court of Their Excellencies was later reopened so that they may call
before them THLord Guillaume le Noir du Bordauex. They recognized his
service as a heavy fighting marshal, assisting at events, and helping to
create the Stellar Tourney and so awarded him a Gold Comet with a scroll by
THLady Gesa von Wellenstein and words by Baron Alaric MacConnal.

There being no further business, the court of Their Excellencies was then
closed once more.
