Vivant to their Majesties Cadogan and Euphemia, crowned in an outdoor ceremony on the green, on the hottest and sunniest day so far this year in this part of Insulae Draconis. May the rest of their reign go as smoothly...but perhaps be held in the shade.

In their first court, Their Majesties did great honour to Insulae Draconis, choosing three residents of these isles to defend them upon the field of armoured combat and in the art of defense:

Queen's armoured combat champion: Lord Brand of Lough Devnaree
Queen's rapier champion: Lord Duarte Goncalves de Montes

King's armoured combat champion: Sir Wiglaf Wilfriding
King's rapier champion: Lord Antonio di Rienzo

Vivant to their Excellencies, Padraig and Elsa, count and countess of Drachenwald, who stepped down with many encouraging words for the people of the crown principality where they had both won Crown tournament and ended their reign.

(In the afternoon, many who attended this event were struck by the appearance of a young, clean-shaven knight of regal bearing, who bore an uncanny resemblance to the former king Padraig...

Vivant to the hard-working organizers of this weekend's coronation:

Thomas Flamanc (steward),
Siban ni Ghiolla Padraig (head cook), ably assisted by Johanna aff Hukka, who together produced a splendid feast and provided ample food for everyone,
Raphe Cuthbert and Ariel of Lindisfarne (registration and travel rustlers),
Caohmin McAindru and Mary verch Thomas (local contacts).

My own thanks to the enthusiastic singers who showed up to lend their voices as a gracious touch to the coronation ceremony.

One clarification to mention:

While many of the organizers of this event live in West Dragonshire, and WD sponsored the event, the event took place in the lands of Mynydd Gwyn, and would not have occurred without that shire's support.
