[Cara & Char]

Odriana -

This is an amazingly generous offer.  In fact, Her Excellency is inspired to 
enter, and we are encouraging our children as well!  None of us have ever 
entered the Ice Dragon competition before.  Please know that you have our 
complete support in this endeavor.  (And an impressive endeavor it is!  Good 
luck!)

In Service,
Byron and Ariella
Baron and Baroness of the Debatable Lands

To the Artisans and Scientists of the Barony Marche of the Debatable Lands
does Edelachtbaar Vrouwe Odriana vander Brugghe bid greetings.

As you have already read, THL Katla has challenged all groups in
Aethelmearc to participate in Ice Dragon and has offered a prize for the
area with the highest percentage of participation.

While we are all well acquainted with the heightened state of talent in
the Barony Marche of the Debatable Lands, the Kingdom should be reminded
of it.  I make the personal challenge to every Artisan and Scientist in
the Barony to enter at least one item in the Pentathlon at Ice Dragon.

To provide as much support as possible to those who wish to participate in
the challenge there will be a series of classes to gear up for Ice Dragon
that will cover topics such as; research, documentation, rubrics, and
judging. There will also be at least two workshops where those
participants that would like to may get together and work on their
entries.

Everyone that takes up this challenge will receive:
- a token of appreciation.
- public acknowledgement of their participation (in the Althing).

All novice entrants will receive the above *and* a personal token of
appreciation from me.

If you choose to enter the Pentathlon itself - five entries in five
different categories - you will receive a Prize of Great Niftiness to be
Named Later as well as the token and public acknowledgement.

To qualify for the challenge, the artisan must have "Barony Marche of the
Debatable Lands", "BMDL", or "Debatable Lands" listed as their group name
when registering their entry for the Pent.

The Pentathlon entrant from the BMDL that has the highest score will also
receive the newly-created Klauwaards [pron. Klaw-vay-ards] Prize, a $75
cash prize. The prize is named after a coalition of patricians and master
artisans that existed in Flanders during the late 13th/early 14th century.

The official list of Barony participants and the determination of the high
score will be taken directly from the listing of entries/entrants at Ice
Dragon.

There will also be cookies at the Barony Meeting following Ice Dragon as
my thanks to all of the Artisans and Scientists who participated, their
families, and their friends who supported the entrants.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me via email
at jenn.strobel at gmail.com or in person at the following events: Agincourt,
BMDL Twelfthnight, and Kingdom Twelfthnight.

Written this twenty eighth day of September in the year two thousand and
ten in the center of the most remarkable Barony Marche of the Debatable
Lands, at the confluence of the Three Rivers, on the day dedicated to the
many cultural contributions of William Cardille, our belovèd Chilly Billy.
