In the evening, Their Excellencies invited Dame Olyf Moorcroft to address the populace as Event Steward.

Before releasing the kitchen staff, Their Excellencies required Vigdis Stillingr to step forward and receive a Gold Comet for her many acts of assistance in both kitchen and field. Scroll by Lady Benedicta di Venetia.

Their Excellencies also recognized Lord Eamonn na Laimhe with a Gold Comet for his service to the MOL office and as cook, event support, and other acts. Illumination and words by Dame Olyf Moorcroft with calligraphy by The Honorable Lady Rachel Dalicaux.

Then, Learifaðir Jorundr hinn rotinn named the winners of the fencing tournaments of the day. First, the victor of the Spear Tourney: Don Robert MacEwin of Thornhill; second, the victor of the Cut-and-Thrust Tourney: Don Robert MacEwin of Thornhill; finally, the winner of the Steel Coin: Baron Salvatore de la Torres…who already had a coin, so he gifted his to Don Robert MacEwin of Thornhill. However, Don Robert already having won a coin, presented his to Lord Marcos Baltanos…who already had a coin. So Lord Marcos presented his coin to Don Niccolo Loredan de Venezia, who, thankfully, did not have a coin already.

After this, Their Excellencies asked The Honorable Lady Lisabetta de Rossi to share the outcome of the Arts and Sciences populace choices. For largess, Kolfinna was voted the most popular; for the general display, Hannah won the populace choice. Each was presented with a goodie basket as a prize.

Their Excellencies then asked forward all those gentles who had been presented with comets earlier during the Campaign Courts. They then asked Brehyres Muighreal ingen Dubhghail to read the Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging statement crafted by the Barony, that all might hear and know the Barony-Marche of the Debatable Lands for a welcoming environment.

Finally, Their Excellencies asked all scribes, wordsmiths, and regalia-makers to come forward for a token of appreciation for all they do.

There being no further business, the Court of Their Excellencies was closed.

Faithfully submitted,
