Their Majesties invited His Excellency, Barak Elandris Bear the
Wallsbane, Deputy Seneschal for New Groups, into Their Presence.
Syr Bear asked that the members of the Incipient Shire of
Gryffon's Keep present themselves before Their Majesties,
whereupon Lord Thomas Lestrange handed Syr Bear a Petition signed
by the Shire Members asking that they be elevated to full
Shire status. Syr Bear noted that the group had thus
fulfilled the last requirement necessary to become a full Shire,
and asked Their Majesties to determine its fate. Their
Majesties expressed their pleasure at the industry and enthusiasm
of the group, and proclaimed the Shire of Gryffon's Keep no
longer incipient. The Shire then presented gifts to Their
Majesties and Their Excellencies.

Their Majesties noted that They were a bit hungry and, having
spied Mistress Karana Yabokchi among the populace, asked her to
attend Them. Their Majesties remarked upon Karana's habit

physical well-being, and commended her for taking care of such
people. In recognition of her kindness and her noble

a word with Master Alastar Scott MacCrummin. They remarked
upon numerous occasions within Their memory upon which Master
Alastar could be found in the kitchens of our fair Kingdom, quite
literally slaving away over a hot stove. They recalled his
having stepped in upon more than one occasion when a previously
engaged cook had had to withdraw, and saving the day for many a
harried autocrat. They then asked the Companions of the
Most Noble Order of the Pelican to attend Them, whereupon Their
Majesties directed the Order to counsel Alastar that he might
return before Them upon a future date to be mutually decided,
where Alastar shall answer the question whether he will accept
elevation to the Most Noble Order of the Pelican. Scroll by
