Adoubement (Knighting) of Briek Blackthorn

Post by Raona » Wed Jun 03, 2009 2:36 pm

IC: Tyr watches all those squires in His service, collecting evidence in their deeds, taking the measure of their mettle, and weighing the truth in their heart. When, in His judgment, they are ready to serve Him as one of His paladins, he calls forth the faithful and those of similar heart to witness the squire taking his oaths, formally making the transition to a Paladin of Tyr. Such a time has now come for Squire Briek Blackthorn, after many years walking the difficult path of a squire. It is a solemn day, and yet a joyous one, and you are urged to attend if your situation permits it. The ceremony will take place at the appointed time in the outer sanctum of the Halls of Justice in Waterdeep, His temple in the City of Splendours. Should ye find the main entrance to the Halls locked, please enter via the service entrance, on the west side of the building.

OOC:
We are tentatively aiming for this time and date

I cannot promise I will be able to attend; that is my first day of my new job. But I will try my best to make it. =)

If you can't then it's ok, I wouldn't want you to put your new job at risk just for a little roleplay.

Do you mean Wednesday the 10th or Thursday the 11th? (the posted date is from last year)

Whoa! My apologies, thank you for pointing that out, I totally missed it. The intended date was the 11th, Thursday, but Wednesday works for me and is a better fit for Briek, so let's call it Wednesday, June 10.

My apologies for the botched time&date posting!

Unfortunately I'll be away from the 9th to sometime in the evening on the 11th. I hope all goes well, though!

Obviously the venue will be the Halls of Justice but just thought I would mention that we won't be able to use the inner sanctum, we tried during Alfrid's knighting and even following a Tyrran other characters couldn't get in.

Barring unforeseen conflicts, Lysaron will be there. Last time, didn't we settle for just outside the Inner Sanctum?

Christoph can be there :D

It looks like this date and time is a "go," with regrets to those who will be unable to make it. The ceremony will take place in the outer sanctum of the Halls of Justice, just south of the inner sanctum, a room to which I believe everyone [who would ICly have a desire to attend this, at any rate] has access. "After hours," when the main entrance is closed, please enter the Halls of Justice through the service entrance, to the west of the building, which is open 24/7.

I'll be posting IC notifications in-game shortly. Thanks for the feedback, everyone!

Regretfully Aramil will be unable to make an appearance, I'm not at home at that date.
Weit in der Champagne im Mittsommergrün,
dort, wo zwischen Grabkreuzen Mohnblumen blühn,
da flüstern die Gräser und wiegen sich leicht
im Wind, der sanft über das Gräberfeld streicht.

Unfortunately, I do not believe that I will be able to bring Harroghty. I have access to a computer, but my access expires the hour that this begins.
