From the Baron and Baroness:

Several Cleftlanders were honnored at the NOWM court, notably Conrad set on vigil for knighthood, and others: Akizuki Chako - Award of Arms, Alexandra la Noire - Award of the Purple Fret, Brice Colquhoun - Company of the Bronze Ring, Guenhwyvar MacEwen - Order of the Dragon's Heart, Kiriena Kirova Doch' Rysenkova - Award of Arms, Lothar de Normandie - Order of the Red Company, Nial the Wanderer of Bork - Order of the Silver Oak, Regan of Blacksilver - Apward of the Purple Freth, Zuriel Nightshade - Order of the Silver Oak. And others who were not present also recieved awards.

It is a privilage of Barons and Baronesses that they may at need speak for the Crown and so Duchess Emelyne Carithil was called forward and presented with her Order of the Dragon's Heart.

Sir Ephraim in particular noted appreciation for her long, quiet service behind the scenes and that those who avoid recognition for their deeds do sometimes still recieve it. Hoobah.

Here closes the court of the Baron and Baroness of the Cleftlands.
