  • Reminders from the Kingdom Seneschal about attendance at 12th Night

    Good Morning An Tir!  Few reminders if you are attending the Kingdom’s 12th Night event this weekend.

    1)  IF YOU ARE SICK STAY HOME.  After almost 3 years of this, I think by now we all understand this really means to stay home.  If you think it is just your allergies acting up in January, better to err on the side of caution.

    2) The event team, gate team etc. is NOT your complaint department.  You can reach the complaint department by emailing seneschal@antir.org.

    3) Masks MUST be worn at all times unless actively eating or drinking.  That means covering the nose and the mouth.  Not below the nose, or above the mouth.  In case anyone forgot, actively eating and drinking is actively doing so.  Not walking around with a cup or a muffin in your hand as a talking point while you move from group to group.

    4) All persons attending the event MUST CHECK IN AT GATE.  You will be checked for your site token at entrances like the ballroom.  So have it on you along with your vaccination card/pass or COVID test.  The bars and restaurants will not let you in without it.  Again, the event team is not your complaint department.  You can reach the complaint department by emailing seneschal@antir.org.

    You will be asked once to follow the policies we have set forth in the Kingdom (King County, State of Washington).  If this is something you feel you can’t abide by then please wait to attend an event until you are able to do so.  If anyone has any questions please reach out to me.

  • Appointment of Viceroy – Barony of Vulcanfeldt

    Greetings to the Barony of Vulcanfeldt, 

    We are writing to you regarding the resignation of the Baron and Baroness of Vulcanfeldt.  Because we believe it to be in the best interest of the Barony, We have accepted their resignation effective immediately.  While this is an unfortunate situation, it is not insurmountable.  With Her Majesty’s leave, We have appointed Duchess Stjarna to act as Viceroy to the Barony of Vulcanfeldt.   

    A Viceroy acts as the representative of the Crown for the group until it is determined that suitable candidates are willing and able to serve as the Coronet for the Barony.  As Viceroy, Duchess Stjarna will help the Barony to find a clear path forward and to steer itself onto a course where it can thrive.  The purpose is to build a more resilient Barony with a more unified vision for its future.  We are confident in Duchess Stjarna’s ability to help guide the Barony so that it obtains a robust and engaged slate of officers and eventually a new Baron and Baroness. 

    We understand and recognize that the events of the past few days may have been unexpected and/or difficult for many of you.  Change is never easy and can be challenging to adjust to.  However, unanticipated change and upheaval can also be a catalyst for growth. 

     It is important to us that you understand that the appointment of a Viceroy is not punitive in any way; rather, it is an opportunity for the Barony to take time to regroup.   Moreover, there is no set timeline regarding how long Duchess Stjarna will act as Viceroy; the Barony is encouraged to take the time it needs to find a collective path forward to a vibrant future.  And we are convinced that Vulcanfeldt does indeed have a bright future. 

    Duchess Stjarna will keep us up-to-date on the health and well-being of Vulcanfeldt just as your Coronet would.   We encourage you to reach out to Her Grace if you have any questions regarding this decision, her role, or the path forward.  We look forward to working with Duchess Stjarna, and all of you, as we all move forward. 

    With Warm Regards and Best Wishes during the Holiday Season, 

    Sven Fallgr Gunnarsson, Crown Prince An Tir 

    Rauokinn Eyverska Starradottir,  Crown Princess An Tir
