who are not banished or enemies of the King our lord, know
that there will be a great festival of arms and a very noble
tourney, both mounted and on foot, with archers, crests,
banners and horses covered with the arms of the noble
tourneyers, as is the ancient custom, hosted by the very
noble and very powerful Barony of Madrone.”

Complete your tournament season in style at An Tir’s flagship
