[Artemisia] Quest for the Chosen Seven and an open challenge

[M Steele]

On this subject, I would like to offer a challenge to any peer of the five Baronies and surrounding 
areas.  You name the game and the event (I will be with TRM at many of 
their events in the next six months).  I will research it, learn it to 
the best of my ability in that time, and we will play. :)

Greetings to all Glorious Artemisia from Sean and Nisa, 30th Monarchs of the Gryphon Thrones.

At Coronation We did make it known that the members of Our Chosen Seven have agreed to take up a quest during Our reign.  We are grateful to each of them for their willingness to stand as a premier example of so many of the virtues that We wish to encourage in Our populace.  We ask that Our subjects make every reasonable effort to assist Our Chosen Seven in the fulfillment of this Quest.

We did also make it known, that the tasks associated with this quest are hereby offer to all members of our populace to be taken up as personal challenge.  Anyone wishing to fulfill these tasks may contact Our Knight Councilor, Sir Roger de Palermo.

Herein lies the quest set before Our Chosen Seven:


Games
You are expected to play a period game with one member of any of the Peerage Orders from within or around each of the five Baronies of Artemisia.

Dance
            You must make arrangements at one of your local events to share at least one period dance with the populace.  You are expected to teach the steps of the dance as well as participate.

Arts
            You will enter one item into an Arts & Sciences competition.  As an alternative, you may teach one class at an event with classes scheduled.  

Service
            You will stand at least one scheduled shift of guard duty at a local camping event.  As service comes in many different forms, alternatives may be approved by the Knight Councilor.

Heraldry
            You will have arms submitted to the Kingdom Herald for Submissions.  The arms submitted must be conspicuously displayed at the Unbelted Tournament at Uprising whether or not they have been approved by the College of Arms.  You will be expected to blazon these arms as submitted.

Entertainment
            You will find an opportunity to entertain the Crown.  

Persona Story
            You will submit to the Crown a one-page Persona Story for yourself.  This should include a time frame within 10 years, a country and any significant battles, or political events, which may have occurred during the lifetime of your persona.  


The accomplishment of each of these tasks should be made known to the Knight Councilor.  Alternatives to some of these tasks may be approved by the Knight Councilor.
