There appears to be a few changes on the main parchment. Odd directions are placed at the bottom of the parchment. They appear to be leading to a private parchment for knighthood members ownly.

((Posting the private boards from the begining of the year. Let's see if we can get this running again))

Dave Monk has been added to our ranks as a page apprentice.

Sir Dantagon Marescot

To all members of the Knighthood,

I, Squire Jorokar Sladrir, with Sir Dantagon Marescot's permission, will be
holding a general training session on the 22nd of Ushos, on the 18th hour.

This is open to all members including Pages as well as Page Apprentices.
I would like to encourage the associates to be present on this date and
dedicate some time for this gathering. Challenging different opponents
is best to broaden and improve your talents, and hence that is why I think
such practical training is helpful.

We shall preferably meet inside Eliza's shop, where brief introductions and
perhaps a short talk will preceed the moving to our training spot.

You will also be provided with training equipment, ideal for the practice.

Once again, I wish to emphasize on the importance for the members to show
themselves on the planned date.

If there are any questions or recommendations, kindly send me a message
through a dove. Finally, I would also like to ask those attending to send me
a message too, simply to acknowledge their presence.

I thank you for the time.
I hope to see most if not all members show up.

With sincere regards,
~ Jorokar Sladrir,
Squire of Gobaith.

(( Friday 16th - 21:00 GMT | 16:00 EST | 15:00 CST ))

First off I would like to say that Ayla and I have decided to lower the wait time to 2 dwarven weeks instead of 4. We hope this will be more acceptable in the future. Anyone who has been a page apprentice for more than 2 dwarven weeks are acceptable for swearing the oath. This means Scott Macleod, Gannon Harper, and Yusuf. All four of these men are able to swear the oath and become a page. The sooner you become a page the sooner you can study, take the test, and become a squire. So please, come swear the oath.

Also I would like to add Konrad Knox as a page apprentice. I wish him good luck in his chance at knighthood.

Sir Dantagon Marescot

((Also as Andrew fails to realize that Americans hate military time, the times are 4 pm EST, 3pm CST. Please come if time permits, I realize that this is right after school/before the end of work.))

Important notice:

The training session, due to certain reasons and circumstances, has been
postponed to exactly another dwarven week. The new established date will
be the 19th of Siros, on the 18th hour.

The meeting place will remain unchanged, that is, we will meet inside Eliza's
shop at first.

Those able to attend kindly send me a message once again.

I thank you for the attention.

Regards,
~ Jorokar Sladrir,
Squire of Gobaith.

(( Friday 23rd - 9.00pm GMT | 4.00pm EST | 3.00pm CST ))

I will try to greet all those who come. This is a chance for page apprentices who need to swear the oath to meet with me. Also those who do come may gain some better luck at reaching squire due to the fact that they are showing their loyality to the knighthood.

Sir Dantagon Marescot

Konrad Knox has been made a page upon this day due to his loyality to the knighthood and appearing for the training. Also Gannon Harper, with much adue has also been made a page. I wish both luck on their way to squire.

I would also like to welcome a new addition to our family. Upon the 20th of Siros, year 23, Elarinya Sladrir has been born to Squire Jorokar Sladrir and Dame Ayla To'lorn. I congratulate them both. May new hope shine throughout Gobaith.

Sir Dantagon Marescot

I would also like to add that Scott Macloed has sworn the oath today. I believe he shall make a great new addition to our knighthood. He is eager and willing to do his job and become squire.

Sir Dantagon Marescot

Greetings, members of the prestigious alliance of the Knights of Gobiath!

Firstly, may I be out of my way to congratulate you for assembling such a splendid force of knights to protect our beloved island of Gobiath! I write this carefully written letter in hope that I may join your ranks and be vaulted the brotherhood that is The Knights of Gobiath. I eagerly await your answer.

Signed,
Sean Haynesworth

Sean,

You must arrange to meet with either myself or Dame To'lorn before you can be admitted as a page apprentice. After we have met with you and spoken with you, you can then be admited as a page apprentice.

Sir Dantagon Marescot

Thank you for such a hasty answer! I will be sure to set up an appointment with either of you.

Signed,
Sean Michael Haynesworth

Dear Knights, Squires and Pages

I am really sorry for being late in the last trainings.
My proposal is to train more periodic. Like every 7. dwarfenday or something like this.
I hope you agree, and we can find a solution fitting for everyone.


Another point is that i am part of the TB townguard now.
In my opinion its my duty to protect the town and every people living there. Townguard or not.
I hope there is no disagreement from the nighthood .


~Yusuf Amadi Randal

Dear Dame Ayla To'lorn,

I've yet to recieve a dove, so I shall tack my parchment upon the Knightood's.
As you know I'm interested in taking brotherhood within the Knighthood.

In service,
~Seraphym Greybone

Seraphym,

Although this is addressed to Dame To'lorn, I would like to let you know that occasionally we are a little slow at replying.

Yusuf,

I do agree that we should hold training more oftens so that we may meet and converse as well as train. I see nothing wrong with joining the guards in order to protect the people, however remember where your loyalities lie. Gobaith or the guard, choose wisely. For now one requires you, later the other.

Gildon,

Welcome back. You were quite missed and I have been awaiting your return for some time. Welcome back, brother. Make haste to return to where you left off, for you were not far from knighthood. Though now you have to play catch-up to the rest.

Sir Dantagon Marescot

Due to our growing size and ability to protect various areas of Gobaith our forces shall now be spreading out inorder to help towns other than just Trolls Bane. A few members will be sent to each town inorder to help and train the militas of those towns and to help with any other needs. It is also asked that those whom wish to fight be taught. Members mentioned in the following list are asked to take a few items with them to these towns. Mostly weapons and armor in order to help train and equipt the militas, potions, and food as well as any other valuables you wish to keep upon you.

Trolls Bane

Page Yusuf Amadi Randal

Nordmark
Page Scott Macleod

Sir Dantagon Marescot

Silverbrand
As Silverbrand rarely opens her doors to anyone, no one will be sent for the time being.

Caelum
As Caelum is unknown to allow anyone except those within their favor in, no members will be sent at all unless they are willing to negotiate terms to allow the knighthood to freely walk upon their land.

All decisions made above are to be argued with Sir Dantagon Marescot.

Sir Dantagon Marescot

Toreasa stops again by the board today standing very straight and regal now wearing Salk instead of leather armor. Smiling at the latest post, she takes a pen from her bag and writes with a strong handwriting.

Sir Dantagon Marescot and Dame Ayla To'lorn,

I am interested in joining the The Knights of Gobaith.

Toreasa Shavonne

Dantagon, Dantagon; your knights would be a mere inconvenience on our land. We have a much stronger force than yours and we're perfectly capable of defending ourselves, so no; we will not negotiate.

~W.E~

William, William. Your reply was nothing more than I expected.

Toreasa Shavonne,

What town might you be in so that it will be easier to find you?

Sir Dantagon Marescot

Sir Dantagon Marescot,

I have yet to be a citizen of any town and would eventually like to stay more in Tol Vanima, however due to training and work, I find myself more in Trollsbane then other places at the moment.

I look forward to our meeting, and wish to thank you for your quick reply.

Toreasa Shavonne

be greeted, Sir Dantagon Marescot!

so, due to your growing size and ability to protect various areas of Gobaith your forces will now be spread out in order to help towns in order to help and train the militas of those towns and to help with any other needs.
well, that corresponds well with the new name of your order, "of Gobaith".
but i regret, to have to inform you, that it corresponds less with our point of view.
being an independent jarldom, we invite teachers or aids of our choice. but we do not accept help, we did not ask for.
or help, that was not offered, but ordered from outside of the nordmark.

apart from the fact, that here are not very much fighters, that could learn something new from "your Page" Scott Macleod, and the fact, that your Squire Gildon de Vymont would not be understood by most of our warriors, my personal point of view would be, that you should better concentrate on varshikar, where they constantly suffer from raids, or on trollsbane, where guards frequently are missing, for being sent on other errands.

but what really disturbs me, is the conflict, you create for my man Scott Macleod.
sending him, who promised his eternal loyality to the dragon clan and the nordmark, as an envoyee under your command back to just this nordmark will produce a conflict of loyalities for him, that could break the man.
either he has to betray the nordmark, or he has to betray the knights order.
a situation, i hate to see a follower of mine in.

my regards,
tjalf, jarl of nordmark
.

Jarl Tjalf,

Forgive me, I did not mean it as an intrusion upon your land. If you truely do not wish for the help I can withdrawl it. I choose to place Scott upon your land because he already lives there and because that is the land he is loyal too. I do not see how this would conflict with his loyalties.

Sir Dantagon Marescot

Sir Dantagon,

The ol' Dragon be right, aye. A man canna'e serve two masters. I did nae see it before, but if'n the Knights be contrary to me Jarl, I cann'ae remain wit' the Knights.

I was ordered by me Jarl to join the Knights to learn to defend me Home, but representin' the Knights there too, may be difficult.

It be better if'n I was assigned another place. Then I can keep me pledge to both. Serve the Knights, and defend me Home if'n need be.

Thank'ee
~Page Scott Macleod

All members are to stay out of the Nordmark from this point on discluding Scott who lives there. I do not want to see anyone hurt or thrown out of anywhere because of my faults.

Sir Dantagon Marescot

Does any member of the knighthood want to train some fighting tonight?
We could meet in about ((7 hours)) at Elizas.
Probably some members of the Trolls Bane Milizia will join, too.


Jemand aus der Ritterschaft will heute trainieren? ((in 7 stunden)).
Vielleicht nehmen teil Miliz mitglieder aus trolls bane.


~Amadi Yusuf Randal

I am sorry for the quite long streak of inactivity that I have shown.. please forgive me for my rather long hiatus and I shall be vaulted back into the activites a loyal member must do.

~Sean Michael Haynesworth

Today there was an attack upon my person by Dain Laiden and Julius Rothman in Trolls Bane. They seem to not agree with us being there. I ask all to be careful in town there. If asked to leave, do so. We are here to maintain order, not create disorder. We are not against Trolls Bane, but instead there to help. Fight only in self-defence of yourself and others. Do not attack.

Sir Dantagon Marescot
