Fall Crown has brought us happily to the Coronation of Edric and Faizah. As is our custom, the bards of Caid have written praise poems for every fighter who contended for that Crown.
With fine words, with humour, but always with courtesy, the Circle of Bards of Caid wield their pens for the amusement of Their Majesties and the entertainment of the populace.
In this collection you will find an amazing assortment of...ballads, tales and sagas, rhymed couplets, Petrachan and Shakespearian sonnets, Norse scaldic forms - ljoðahattr and galðrahattr, a ghazal, Rubaiyat, a Ballade Supreme, a couple Lays and a Triolet. Whew. These bards have talent!
So, read the well-wrought words contained herein and enjoy them in the spirit in which they are intended. We each do our part to enrich the Dream. And fighters, as you continue to acknowledge your bards, your fame will only grow.
Special thanx have to go to Mistress Natalya, Lady Liudmila and especially Signore Secca for their stalwart inkslinging. ;-j Thanx also to Countess Kolfinna for expiditing the List information so necessary to the process. And thanx to Stephany of the Sunset Aerie for her proofreading prowess.
Yours in homage to the Muse,
- Phillipa
