Lord Nial opened the meeting by yeilding the floor to Their Majesties who expressed their gratitude to the barony for what looked to the populace like a well organized event, something always does go wrong at large events but the populace didn't notice. Thanks especially to those who sheparded people to the presence, it was an impressively long line and many of you were in it. Hoobah. And a idle mention of if the Cleftlands would host Their De-Coronation was met with a vehement "No!"

Lord Nial then asked that anyone in metal note that a lightening storm is approaching, you might want to get out of your armour. And to please remember your tithe, we ask $2 from combatants, $1 from everyone, if this is your first or second meeting please be our guests.
