“His Highness chose his lady, Leonore of Lynxhaven to be Princess and the long and peaceful reign of Sir Frederic and Lady Anne of the West Tower drew to its close.

“The Principality’s new fighting award - the Mucking Tall Maul - was presented to Master Geoffrey of Sperraunce.

“Visiting dignitaries included Baron Sir Kevin Perigrynne - Earl Marshal of the Kingdom of the West, Sir William the Lucky - Seneschal of the Kingdom of the West and Sir Stephen MacEanruig.”2
