Gyldenholt Anniversary

June 13, 2009

Another year has passed and the Golden Forest is celebrating as the time of Gyldenholt Anniversary looms upon the horizon. Therefore does a call go forth, from Their Excellencies Ursul and Colette, for contenders of all fighting forms to step forward and show their prowess. So, too, are artists and artisans, young and old, encouraged to join the celebration by displaying their talents in a judged arena.

The birthstone of June being pearls and the first anniversary token being paper, the theme for Baron Ursul and Baroness Colette this year will be parchment and pearls.

From Tezar of Aeolis

I can't do a complete report as I was watching little one play most of the day. However, I can report that Duke Sven deafeted all comers to become the armored champion and the finals in Rapier came down to Don Colyn and Don Andre, with Don Colyn at the champion.

There was also a 5th round class given by Don Colwyn on defensive secondaries followed by a bear-pit tourney using the different types of secondaries. This was won by one of our new rapier fighters who authorized just that morning - Matt (Sorry Matt, I forget what last name you are using).

Also in rapier, the Iron Crescent was challenged by a team lead by Don Lot and by a Dragoons team. While valiant fighting was done by all, the Califian team was successful in defending the Crescent.
