The Yew Leg of Axiana's Jousting Tournament (Report) In attendence from Cove:- Hoagie Grayner, Commander (Participated in Joust) Kelly Sanderson, Sergeant Cailin Keres, Officer Cadet Leanne Melior, Regular Scout (Participated in Joust) Gimbly, Regular Grenadier (Participated in Joust) Tiberius Kane, Regular Guardsman Fritz Segur, Junior Guardsman (Participated in Joust) Sheriam Palmer, Junior Guardswoman Mordred Casseiul, Squire (Herald) Alice Green, Cleric Khaelieth Llelmandred Kellenwyr Sereghyanda , Burgher Winifred, Commoner (Held a stall) Geraldine, Commoner Once we had gathered in Cove town, we set off to Yew. The journey there, to my relief, was uneventful. Upon arrival in Stonekeep, we were greeted by Kros Vandor, the present governor of Yew and host of the evening. He had taken a prodigious amount of care in setting up everything ready for the joust as we had discussed, and had also made food and drinks available to any who cared for them. To my glee, the weather remained dry throughout the evening *remembers back to her previous visit to Yew*! The Lists! Once I was seated (Mordred at my side) with quill and parchment in hand, I began the arduous task of taking down the names, ranks and deeds of those wishing to participate.

An implacable, resentful and dishonorably discharged member of the Yewish army turned up in an attempt to disrupt the entire event! He had managed to drag almost un-liftable rotting animal carcasses into the centre of the jousting area.

I remember the noise of the white-boned abomination as it let out a blood curdling scream, it's bones clattered as it was finally dispatched. However, it had not been dealt with swiftly enough, and had caused injury to the Governor of Yew (Thankfully it was but minor). The Joust! Following the removal of the dead animal carcasses, the joust was finally to commence. Mordred called forth from the lists the first two contenders:- (https://i.pinimg.com/originals/ec/f7/46/ecf746246cbe6be29fd658320359f652.png) Leanne Melior v's Rimeny de Blaze (V) - Winner!

Fritz Segur I believe that as a result of his defeat, and possibly due to the effects of alcohol, Mr Grayner did decide to remove the entirety of his attire in front of the audience! I will not post the pictures of this most inappropriate event here!
