Outlands History Notes

Outlands' Birthday

2010-06-14T05:37:00.001-06:00

The Kingdom of the Outlands is 24 years old. The Outlands as a land named and apart is 38 or so years old. The art below was by Galen of Wiltshire, for the cover of Southwind in May, A.S. XX, for the beginning of the Twentieth Year of the Society. I've recycled it.

Two more things from later in 1986, one a poem following a boffer tournament, and one the announcement of a corporate-level approval of a water-bearer's office.

Trivia, and history.

Archery at Lonely Mountain, July 12

The weather at Lonely Mountain could not have been better! We had
drizeling rain at night, mildly overcast days and we were surounded
with green vegitation.

25 archers signed up to use the ranges.

The archery and axe ranges were set up Friday afternoon and open for
practice until dusk.

The Rove was active throughout the day on Saturday with about 7
excusions of 3 to 5 archers each into the ierie relm of the Whearre
Rrhaat. We shot at croutching, stalking , hiding Ware Rats and caught
them where they feed. We shot enchanted snakes and and saved the
penguin from the dingo and tried our skil with the magick floating
spinning disk. It never stopped spinning and swaying.

There were 2 Royal Rounds shot on Saturday, one in the morning and
one in the afternoon. A target was set uo at 90 yrds to give archers
a chance to test their skil at long range.

The axe throwin range was fairly active and there was some spear
throwing until the spear broke.

The ranges were taken down at 7pm Saturday evening.

Lists Mistress, al-Barran

Greeting to the Outlands from Artan macAilin, Chancellor to King Boleslav and Queen Astridr.

There have been several rumors about the tragic events at Lonely Mountain this last weekend.

This is a basic version of what happened.

A mundane person stole many items, both personal and regalia from the King and Queen's personal tent, and then soiled the queen's bed.

The matter was handled calmly and efficiently by the crown and their retainers and all of the items were returned after a very brief period. The man who had the stolen items in his tent, was taken away by the police and charges are being pressed. The crown is also considering further SCA action.

There were several heroes who stepped forward in this matter, not the least of which was the King himself and his son Count Alrik.

As events progress, we will post updates to this list. If you have any direct questions please contact me at jcunico37 @ hotmail dot com.

Interesting problem, being corrected awkwardly

Older posts (posts from long-ago months) are rearranging themselves as they're amended. Historically speaking, it's a problem when months and years won't stay in order!

Use the search box at the top left to find the month you want, for now (or this index).

So for the record, this blog was started in January 2008, and most of the posts have the date 1/26/08. This isn't working.

Gradually we'll change each months' blog posting date to the month and year of its title. Of course nobody put anything on blogspot in the 1970's, but I don't know another good way to keep them in order, so I suppose ignoring the dates of postings would be courteous of you all to do. Nothing was here before 2008.

The Cordon Royal was chartered in the second Outlands reign, by
Johann, who named Bertrand the premier. The first scroll text used was

Johann, King..., to all and singular sends greetings and due commendations. Whereas Bertrand . . . has given me the courtesy of his special service during my reign I am minded to make him the premier of the Cordon Royal, that all may know of the value in which I hold him. By my hand. . .

Mistress Monika adapted it from a Queen's Grace text.

This summary is lifted from the November 1996 Outlandish Herald, where it was "Ten years ago..."

The Outlands had $815.88 in the bank. The Order of the Stag's Blood was chartered by Gunwaldt and AElflaed with Lord Artan Skulcrusher as Premier. Lord Johann von Balduinseck had won Crown Tournament in October and he and Mistress Kathryn were crowned second King and Queen of the Outlands on November 1.

First Outlands Crown Tournament, Caerthe, June 14

Mirianna Wren posted these memories on the Outlands list January 25, 2008
(list members can read the original here: message/38903

... One of my memories of that day was watching Cymber (then known as Darkwater) fight one of her rounds, she lost both of her legs and arms, and then proceded to shuffle along the ground on her knees after her oponent, growling with barred teeth and saying something like "Come-here, I'll get-ya" until she was taken out by a head shot. I think it was after that that she took up sword and shield, and I remember once she was on the ground and behind her shield she was a tough target to get.

Another memory is watching a very pregnant lady be escorted down to the newly crowned King of The Outlands to be made the 1st Queen, I remember thinking, wow, I can't imagine how tough it is going to be to do all the stuff as Queen and be that close to giving birth.

Other flashes of memories, sitting in the stands, listening to a gentleman in a kilt play a mandolin, and then hearing everybody sing the Atenveldt Song for the last time, how sad everybody seemed...

I loved all the clothing too, that was my main interest. I am sure the people there got real tired of me asking if I could take their picture. Another memory is at the feast, sitting next to a man (Otagiri) who held a small toddler on his lap the whole time. I now know it was because "Mom" was the Barroness and he was helping her out (it was Mistress Kate and Zach, now Sir Zachariah). And thinking it was so cool the way the couple across from me fed each other and shared the food from the same plate, it was so romantic to a green newby. (I think it was Thorvald, one of Olaf's Squires, I don't know who the lady was.) Ariel, I also remember you singing during the feast...
