Here begins the court report of Liam and Constance, Baron and Baroness
of the Debatable Lands at Steltonwald Twelfth Night, January 28, A.S.46.
Lord Jorundr hinn Rotinn, reporting herald.<br>
<br>
Their Excellencies called Elizabeth Wilbur to attend Them. Their
Excellencies commented on Elizabeth's skill in archery, being named one
of Their champions, as well as her willingness to help out in kitchens
at many events. For this they named her a member of the Order of the
Purple Comet. Scroll illumination by Canicdricca verch Elider and

<br>
Then Their Excellencies called upon Lord Marcus du Coer, His Excellency
noted that He felt that there should be another individual present at
this time, and thus THLord Fintan na Coilled was called to attend Their
Excellencies. Her Excellency then remarked that there was yet another
whose presence was required, and so Mistress Gianna di Aurelio was also
called to attend Their Excellencies. Their Excellencies talked of the
service of these individuals, and how they as a family contributed much
to both the Barony and the Kingdom, and so made them all members of the
Order of the Gold Comet. Marcus with a scroll by Odriana vander Brugghe,

Their Excellencies asked to be attended by Countess Aidan ni Lear. His
Excellency remarked upon the long service that Aidan has done, reaching
back to His second event, where He remembers seeing Aidan working at War
Practice, He also remarked on her recent service where she has cooked
many feasts, and has served her Barony as Signet. For these and many
more Their Excellencies were pleased to induct Countess Aidan into the
Order of the Gold Comet. Scroll illumination by Isabel Fleuretan and

Next Their Excellencies were pleased to be attended by Mistress Bonita
of Steltonwald. His Excellency remarked once again that Bonita's service
has been long indeed, reaching back to His second event, where He
remembers seeing Bonita
working at War Practice troll, He remarked on her continued service as
troll as well as her assistance in kitchens, for which Mistress Bonita
was inducted into the Order of the Gold Comet. Scroll illumination by
Isabel Fleuretan and calligraphy by Kameshima.<br>
<br>
Their Excellencies would then have the attendance of THLady Ysabell
Graver. His Excellency remarked that He was starting to sound like a
broken record (whatever this strange device may be), yet Ysabell was
working in troll at His second event (which as we all know was War
Practice), in addition to this Ysabell has helped in many kitchens, and
is currently the exchequer of Steltonwald. This is why Ysabell was added
to the rolls of the Order of the Gold Comet. Scroll illuminated by
Alaric MacConal and calligraphed by Kieran MacRae. Their Excellencies
bade Ysabell stay but a moment longer as They had further business with
her, and also with Lady Muirgheal inghean Dubhghaill, Their Excellencies
remarked on Steltonwald being part of the Debatable Lands, and of the
generosity of the Canton to offer their winter practice site for archery
to the shooters of the Debatable Lands, and so as a Twelfth Night gift,
the officers of the Barony decided to pay some some of the rental of
the practice site, and so delivered the check to the Seneschale and
Exchequer of Steltonwald.<br>
<br>
Their Excellencies then announced that it was a certain Lady's birthday
this day, and so called THLady Cailin of the Debatable Lands to appear
before them, and bade the populace to join her in singing her Happy
Birthday.<br>
<br>
Their Excellencies invited the autocrats of the event, Mistress
Alessandra d'Avignon and Lady Muirgheal inghean Dubhghaill to appear
before them. The autocrats thanked all who attended the event, which was
the largest that the event had ever been, and then announced that the
time for choosing of the King and Queen of Misrule had arrived, and
asked all attendees to take a token.<br>
<br>
Her Excellency wished that the attendees of the event would have fun,
party hardy, and drink safely.<br>
<br>
Court Suspended.<br>
<br>
Their Excellencies wished to be attended by Lord Roland of Foxes Glen.
They remarked on how long They had been searching for him, which went
back to Their investiture, and having now gotten Their hands on him They
wished to have some words with him. They talked of how long they had
known Roland, since he was but a child in fact, and that he had been
consistently serving at War Practice, as general help and golf cart
driver. For all this They named him a member of the Order of the Gold
Comet. Scroll illuminated by Zoe Tager with calligraphy by Kieran
