It was a wet and windy Defenders Tourney... the first where Bardic & A&S were also held out of doors... due to scheduling conflicts, it was decided to hold ALL the Defender's Tourneys on the same weekend (except Rapier which is traditionally held at Baroness' Tourney.) It was cold and wet and windy and soggy and drippy and damp and moist.
