A Celebration of the Tournament! 99 times have men and ladies of coat armor come together in fellowship with a thirst for prowess. For the 100th consecutive monthly tournament a cry has gone out across the Known World: Let all princes, lords, barons, knights, and squires of the marches of land of Atlantia, The East, The Middle, Aethlemarc and all others of whatever marches of the Known World, who are not banished or enemies of the king our lord, know that on the 31st day of August, at the Silverleaf Estate there will be a very great festival of arms and a very noble tourney with weapons of peace, in appropriate armor, with coats of arms, as is the ancient custom! The King at Arms will declare a noble series of tourneys fought in various fashions, in the field, and at the barrier, in single combat and in the melee. Combat will be fought in various formats including standard tourney rules, counted blows thrown and received, matched weapons, etc. Challenges may be made and accepted. Bring Ransom worth of your station. Fighting shall commence to the delight of the ladies gallery at 10 in the morning on August 31st after the opening processional and helmshau. By and amongst themselves the combatants will determine the winner of the Lily Chivalry Prize. The King of Arms will determine the Cross Winner as decided by Fate and Ability. A simple but hearty feast will be provided and all are welcome to share fellowship around the fire and tell tales of the deed done that day.
