Hello Altavia!<\/p>\n
We had a wonderful month, of Art, archery, events and classes, ending in our own 42nd baronial anniversary!<\/p>\n
Our cousins in Starkhafn and Nordwache stepped up at their Investitures, and we are thrilled to welcome them to the family, and look forward to seeing what the next few years bring.<\/p>\n
Our Baron Griffith was able to make it out to Starkhafn to bid farewell to Thomas and Catylyn and gifted them with a lovely boat to join their Navy for their retirement.<\/p>\n
We had a lovely arts and sciences night where we received lots of help creating the belt favors to give to our champions in the upcoming year. Thank you to everyone who came out to help, especially Eleanor and who directed us all in the sewing arts, and Merlin who carved and block printed all of the favors with the design.<\/p>\n
We had a few Altavians join the demo at Ridgecon, fighting, interacting with the guests and even joining the costume contest!<\/p>\n
This month was also a big month for archery, both locally, at our practices with our archers, and the society at large.<\/p>\n
We have regularly been running Royal rounds, and getting in IKACs and society seasonal challenges as well. This month, after running 10 archers through the IKAC (Inter-Kingdom Archery Challenge), which is essentially 2 royal rounds + extra speed ends. With these two Royal rounds counting toward each Archer’s official scores, we had two archers achieve their next highest rank, with Joseph du Lapia reaching Yeoman and Baroness Amabel reaching Bowmaster.<\/p>\n
Society wide, the Order of the Mark was formally established as the Peerage level order for the ranged weapons order, including archery, thrown weapons, combat archery and siege weapons, and kingdoms were granted the opportunity to name three premiers.<\/p>\n
Kahn Valentine and King Brocc named the three CAID premieres at Altavia Anniversary. They named Cecilia deMedici, Teka Turmanov and Nikolaos Phaistios as our first candidates for the Order of the Mark.
\nWe are so excited for them, and look forward to seeing what the future holds.<\/p>\n
Altavia anniversary was a fun exciting day full of the celebration of growth, wonderful fighting, many deserving Altavians receiving awards.<\/p>\n
We were able to celebrate Sir Liam’s Pelican elevation, Sibylla de Haze’s Laurel vigil, and the start of Felipe de Trujillo’s traveling Pelican vigil.<\/p>\n
We also gained new champions:
\nRapier: Don Nathaniel Longbow
\nCut and Thrust: Maestro Lot Ramirez
\nArts and Sciences: THL Caterina Sanzio
\nArmored Combat: Kennari Liam Ulfsson won, and asked Thorgrim Rygarson, who finaled with him to act as champion, as Liam has moved out of state and will not be around to act as champion.<\/p>\n
We sincerely thank everyone who helped the day run smoothly, and those that help us throughout the year, and look forward to the next year and the many events and celebrations to come.<\/p>\n
In Service,
\nBaroness Amabel
\nBaron Griffith<\/p>\n
