The following information was shared on the Aethelmearc Gazette this morning.  Our thoughts are with the citizens of Aethelmearc during this difficult time.

From Their Majesties:

Greetings Æthelmearc,

We write to you with a heavy heart but must inform you that HRH, Titus Scipio Germanicus, has passed away. Details are still coming in but we wanted to inform the Kingdom before it is discovered on Social Media or other means.

At this time, we ask that you please respect HRH, Anna Leigh by giving her the space she needs while she is going through this difficult time.

Any questions or concerns may be directed to Ourselves (ae.king@aethelmearc.org, & ae.queen@aethelmearc.org.) or the Kingdom Seneschal, Duke Christopher Rawlyns (ae.seneschal@aethelmearc.org).

Our hearts and prayers are with Her Royal Highness and their families and friends.

In Service to Æthelmearc,

Sven & Siobhan

King and Queen of Æthelmearc

Greetings to the tourney heralds and list runners of the East and Tir Mara from Don Lucien de Wyntere, Troubadour Herald!

We have several events coming up in the next few months.

On Saturday, May 5th, there will be Crown Tourney in the Barony of Ruantallan in the Crown Principality of Tir Mara. We’ll need voice heralds for the lists plus list-runners and support for shield trees. If you think you’d like to help in either capacity, please reach out to me at Troubadour@EastKingdom.org. If you haven’t heralded or run lists before but would like to try, we will be happy to provide on-the-job training and support. We work with kids ages 8 and up for list running.

If you are a Crown Combatant or the artist for one, here is the link for how to make a device for the shield tree (Instructions Here)

Shortly after that, at Sommer Draw, June 1-3rd , will be the King’s and Queen’s Armored Champions Tourney in the Barony of Bergental. Again, we’re looking for both experienced heralds and list-runners and those who want to learn.

Please reach out to me at Troubadour@EastKingdom.org if you would like to help or want to learn. Thank you and we look forward to seeing you on the field!

Duke Kenric Missing, Presumed Lost/Disparition de Duc Kenric

On the afternoon of Friday January 12, Duke Kenric disappeared while kayaking off the coast of his hometown in Rhode Island. An extensive search was conducted by local law enforcement and the Coast Guard. At noon today, the authorities changed the nature of the search from one of rescue to one of recovery. This generally means that they no longer have an expectation of finding him alive.

Duke Kenric is a pillar of our community and it is understandable that many in the East will want to share their memories of Kenric with others. Comments are open on this post in order to provide a space for these. A GoFundMe campaign has been established for those who want to provide financial support to Duchess Avelina and their daughter during this difficult time.

En français

Au courant de l’après-midi du vendredi 12 janvier, duc Kenric a été porté disparu lors d’une excursion en kayak sur les côtes du Rhode Island. Des recherches exhaustives ont été entreprises par la garde-côtes et les autorités locales. Aujourd’hui sur le midi, ces dernières ont changé la nature de ces recherches, les faisant passer de sauvetage à récupération. Il peut être inféré qu’ils n’ont plus d’attentes à le retrouver sain et sauf.

Duc Kenric est un pilier de notre communauté. Il est donc compréhensible que plusieurs dans le royaume de l’Est voudront partager leurs mémoires de ce dernier. À cet effet, les commentaires sont ouverts sur cette publication. Une campagne GoFundMe a été levée pour ceux qui voudraient, en ces temps difficiles, offrir un support financier à duchesse Avelina et leur fille.
