Images in this section provided by Lady Ameline du Bois.

On the left HL Allesandre, HL Borek, HL Darius and Lady Pyro have found a bit of shade and demonstrate some fiber arts to passing visitors. On the right, little Natalie is happy helping mom (Lady Sindara) answer questions at our static arts pavilion.


At left, our wonderful event coordinator, Lady Siobhan, explains an effective way to keep a husband in line. (And I thought my wife was strict.) At right, His Grace, Duke Seamus of the Cats advances to meet Lord Cuan Longtooth on the list field. Lord Timothy marshaled as Lord Raimond educated the onlookers as to what they were witnessing.

To the left, Sir Galen of Bristol, 8th Viscount von Drachenwald, stands ready at the front of the line of fighters. His protégé, Lady Arabella, is seated behind him and served as List Mistress for the demo. In line behind Sir Galen is HE Alexander Shanasie, the 7th Viscount von Drachenwald, then there's Lord Caelin and Lord Dragonetti. Their Excellencies, Baron Llywellyn & Baroness Xene(seated) are enjoying the days fighting. Notice the Baroness' bouquet of Thistles, honoring these Scottish Games. To the right, Ld. Raimond and Brighid have their hands (or laps) full of little Scottish lads, Austin & Alex. Behind them the line of fighters contains Ld. Archibald in green, then Lord Sfi, Lord Cuan and Lord Hengist.


On the left, Lord Archibald Winterbourne's mace was well respected this day as we see Centurion Airaklee Wolf (florentine) in heated combat.  At right, Lord Cuan has been legged as Lord Archibald (squire to Duke Seamus) reassesses the situation.


Here's a site you don't see everyday. Duke Seamus (Elfsea's 2nd Baron) fighting the 7th Viscount von Drachenwald, HE Alexander with Lord Timothy of Glastonbury marshalling. It was a privilege to see this spectacle. On the right, HL Mara of Rede did a great job at the pavilion, educating and eliminating confusion of the visitors. (However, I'm not sure if she's spoken with this gentlemen yet.)


At left, Sir Galen of Bristol and his squire Lord Dragonetti salute the on looking crowd before beginning their bout. To the right, we find Lady Layla in her baronial guard tabard, preparing for evening court.







On the left, Lord Archibald & Centurion Wolf are at it again as Lord Darius marshaled this round. On the right, a shot of the water bearers who took care of not only the fighters, but the marshals and spectators as well. Vivat!


At left, His Grace, Duke Seamus of the Cats and Her Excellency, Baroness Margery de Bray. To the right, Lord Cuan (in gold) is holding Lord Archibald's (in green, the tall one) newest addition to the family. Lord Archibald's Lady is seated in front.






Baron Llywellyn and Baroness Zara Zina look outstanding as they address the populace during evening court. At right, after winning the Rapier tournament, Lord Raimond received a very nice buckler trimmed in leather superbly tooled by Lord Hengist. Raimond immediately offered a choice of bucklers to Brighid who has been loaning her buckler to him recently. Brighid chose her old buckler, stating that Raimond's new one might encourage his continuing improvement in rapier combat. Vivat!


On the left, Baroness Maggie thanked everyone in attendance and gave a gift of cookies to all the fighters of the day's tournament. On the right, Centurion Airaklee Wolf kneels before Their Excellencies as he gives his oath and is made the new commander of the Arthurian Company for the coming year.


From left to right, Lord Fearghus, Viscount Alexander, Lord Daniel, Honorable Lady Allesandre, Lord Dragonetti and Lord Caelin each laid a hand on the sword held by warrior Baroness Xene and repeated their oaths to join the Arthurian Company. To the right of Lord Caelin is the Company Commander, Centurion Wolf who is just visible on the other side of HE Baron Llywelyn.
