<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Unto all Gentles of the Barony Marche of Debatable
Lands do the Children of this Fine Barony state Their Challenge!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>While adults spend their time pursuing their own
Glory, we observe surreptitiously, gauging the martial skill displayed
by those we must watch hour after hour. Though this Barony is blessed with
many of great prowess, the Children's Champions shall vanquish all, earning
rightful booty for those who have often had to plead for such
goods. So shall be the greater enjoyment of such rewards!
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Charles de Cayeux, a favorite with the Children of
the Barony Marche ever since his legendary Esther Bunny performance, shall
represent Us in the fencing tournament. He is quick of step, agility
incarnate, and inspired by his fair bride-to-be. Look to Virginio, whose
love poetry belies his deadly blade!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Baron Byron of Haverford knows well the
inspiration children can give. As long as it is not a Royal
Round, we know he will best all, sinking his knives and axes into colorful
targets with accuracy worthy of the Children's Thrown Weapons
Champion! </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Gabriel Hawkes, bringer of Toys, creator of the
Children's Crusade event, and fighter of great renown, shall represent Us in the
Heavy Weapons list. Watch as he confirms a Child's ability to choose a
victor!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Who has taught us all to Shoot? None other
than Urho Waltterinen, Children's Champion for Archery! Though he must
face his new Student at the line, we have faith that his skill shall bring much
booty to us and glory to his name.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Soon will come the day upon which Champions shall
test their mettle, find strength and inspiration from the crowd and from in
themselves. Prizes aplenty, both delicious or finely-worked, shall we
offer, all made by our hands. We will be there, represented in full, ready to
revel in the gains won. Honor and glory for their Champions, plunder
and prizes for the Children! </FONT></DIV>
