tc007-007.jpg 4.5Ktc007-009.jpg 4.3KOn the left, the final court of Their Majesties King Alaric I and Queen Kayleigh I is underway. Moving clockwise beginning at far left, those facing us are: Lord Anton, Sir Romanius, Ld Durmont, HL Genevieve de Courtanvaux, Ritter Dietrich, HL Sabina, Don Brendan, Mistress Muriel, Duchess Larissa, Ld Virgil and Ld Stephen Hawkins. At right, King Alaric calls for any final entrants for the Bardic challenge of expanding the library of Ansteorran anthems, issued by His Majesty early in his reign.


tc007-012.jpg 4.5Ktc007-013.jpg 4.0KAt left, Lady Simone was one of three more to answer His Majesty's call by publicly performing an original piece. At right, Don Alden performs his piece once again as one of the finalists picked by Their Majesties from an early event. Don Alden received enthusiastic approval from the populace and was named the winner of the King's challenge. In reality, all of Ansteorra won with the introduction of many fine new songs from our talented bards as a result of the king's worthy challenge.


tc007-015.jpg 4.4Ktc007-018.jpg 4.4KAt left, Sir Romanius' proposal of marriage to Lady Deanna brought out several handkerchiefs by those ladies close enough to hear. At right, she said 'Yes!' HUZZAH! The wedding will be held on or about November 4th, 2000.



tc007-021.jpg 3.7Ktc007-022.jpg 4.2KOn the left, Doņa Queen Kayleigh has called forth Her Queen's guard to give heartfelt thanks for their love and support throughout Her reign. On the right, the Queen gives half of her own White Scarf to Don Aeron Harper, captain of her guard, for his exceptional service during this 1st reign.



tc007-025.jpg 4.5Ktc007-026.jpg 4.3KAt left, the Lions of Ansteorra have come to receive the Great Sword of State in preparation for Their Majesty's stepping down. At right, thanking Her beloved King, Queen Kayleigh lovingly caresses King Alaric's cheek one last time as Queen of Ansteorra.


tc007-027.jpg 4.2Ktc007-032.jpg 4.1KAt left, the Queen charges His Excellency, Don Llywelyn with protecting the Queen's Blade of Honor during the in regnum. Don Brendon, the Queen's Champion is witness and received the other half of the Queen's White Scarf when the Don's & Doņas were released from fealty. Both Don Llywelyn and Don Brendon were requested to serve the Queen's heir, Princess Allyson until her own champions are found. At right, King Alaric removes Kayleigh's crown, bringing to a close her first reign.

tc007-034.jpg 4.4Ktc007-036.jpg 3.0KAt left, with the Chivalry present in the final moments of His reign, King Alaric reminisces about his reign and seeks amends for a few failures upon his part as King. One involved a matter of marshallate authority and the other regarding attention spent on the court barony of Bordermarch. This was followed by Sir Romanius, as court herald, detailing a long list of successes of His King, not least of which was the extraordinarily resounding tie at Gulf War. At right, although the image is dark, I think you can still make out the catharsis at the end of this reign. Vivat! Earl Alaric and Countess Kayleigh!
