> For many moons have I looked upon the archers of these Fair Gryphon Lands. I have seen keen eyes, nimble fingers, and many an arrow fly true. But I say unto you, Great Artemisia, that the archers of the Ancient, Noble, and (of course) Modest Barony of Loch Salann can best you all. To prove this claim, I have called upon my Captain and your current Champion of Archers, Lord Bjorn to devise a contest of skill.
