A Fantastic Knighting Ceremony Held
Submitted by Mayor Winfield
May 3 [PaxLair, Felucca, Chesapeake] - Emmeril Cimber and Tassadar were knighted to the PaxLair Knighthood today. Mayor Winfield performed the knighting while Knight Zanthor oversaw the ceremony. Around 20 people were in attendance at the North Tower in PaxLair, a tower ornately decorated as a meeting and ceremonial hall, a city courthouse, and the PaxLair Knights' headquarters.
The two squires recited the Knights' Code and swore their loyalty to the Knights, their Lord, and the Kingdom. Winfield knighted each by touching the Staff of Seer Daemeon upon their shoulders. Each new Knight received a ceremonial shield, a viking sword, and a full runebook of Trammel and Felucca runes to aid them in their travels.
There are currently five Knights of PaxLair. There are also eleven Squires pursuing their training and studies for their Knighthood.
After the ceremony, the Knights led the citizens and visitors to the Crossroads Fortress nearby, clearing the forest road of many monsters along the way. At the Fortress, the party met with an old Knight who told them about the Fortress and three Knights of an olden era (published in separate article)
