At Investiture next weekend, there will be a scribal area set up for
anyone interested in painting Tir Righ charters or who just wants to
drop by and talk about the scribal arts.

I am also holding a Scribal Arts meeting at 11:00 am on Saturday for
anyone interested in the scribal arts.

HL Elina Karsdottir, royal scribe to Ulf and Caoimhinn, is supplying a
big blue pavilion for these.  Please bring your own chair.

I hope to have a "Scribe's" banner hung on the pavilion and will try to
find a location (gate?) to post the location information.  (If you don't
know what the scribe's badge looks like, check out the An Tir College of
Scribes website at http://scribes.antir.com.)

I hope that this will be only the first of many events with a scribal
area set up for those interested.

First Court of Their Highnesses Ulf and Caoimhinn, Prince and Princess of Tir Righ Tir Righ Summer Investiture May 26, 2007 being AS XLII Shire of [[Danescombe]]

Being the Report of the First Court of Their Highnesses Ulf and Caoimhinn, Prince and Princess of Tir Righ. Court held on May 26, 2007 being AS XLII at Summer Investiture in the Shire of Danescombe.

Their Highnesses' Herald called forth the [[Royal Peers]] present, who did come and swear fealty to the Storm Thrones.

Principality Officers came before Their Highnesses and swore fealty.

Their Highnesses' Herald next called forth the Champions of Tir Righ, who came before Their Highnesses and did swear fealty.

The populace of Tir Righ were invited to come forward and swear fealty to Their Highnesses and many did come forward, kneel and so swear.

The members of the Noble Estate came before Their Highnesses and did swear fealty.

The Shire of [[Krakenfjord]] came before Their Highnesses in number, and their [[Seneschal]], Her Ladyship [[Marianella di Ravenna]], did make an impassioned plea for justice. The Shire of Danescombe, hosting Their Highnesses Investiture, did use the Shire of Krakenfjord's lands without asking for permission or even letting Krakenfjord help. After hearing Her Ladyship's pleas, Their Highnesses commanded that the Seneschal of Danescombe come before Them, and asked His Lordship Thorin if there was merit in Krakenfjord's words. There indeed being merit in Krakenfjord's position, Her Ladyship Marianella said that while their feelings were hurt, they could be calmed with "Chocolate.  Much, much chocolate. Baskets of chocolate. Please." The negotiations continued, with Their Highnesses smoothing over the difficulties of the Chocolate Wars and restoring calm to Their Lands. Showing their generosity, Their Highnesses did send out chocolate from Their hands to the Shire of Krakenfjord.

The Shire of Krakenfjord also made a presentation of largesse to Their Majesties.

After serving the Principality of Tir Righ as its Prince and Princess, [[Ulfgar Thorvaldsson]] and [[Renee de Josselin]] were entered into the ranks of [[Viscount]] and [[Viscountess]] and presented with scrolls created by the Principality Scribe Her Ladyship [[Alicia le Wilfulle]]. Thane Ulfgar and Vicomtesse Renee did then swear fealty to the Storm Thrones.

Members of the [[Order of the Rose]] and of the [[Order of the Valorous Estate]] were called forth. Vicomtesse Renee was welcomed into the Order of Valorous Estate and presented with the remaining beads that she used during her reign for her [[Princess' Talon of Favour]].

The Royal Scribe, Her Ladyship [[Elina Karsdottir]], did address the populace about the scribal tent, open for the painting of Principality charters and for scribal discussion.

The populace were advised that the Invocation of Lists for the Scourge of Tir Righ (heavy champion) would open one half hour after court.

Baron [[Harold Devin of Waltham]] and Baroness [[Aurora Argentius]] presented Their Highnesses with personalized Principality stationary, including notepaper, writing paper and business cards.
