    [​IMG] Artist Depiction of a Knight of the Great Council

    On the afternoon of Saturday, October the 1st the Great Council held its first Knight Oath ceremony for the new members inducted into the Knights of the Great Council. The procession was led by the Knight's General Lauralanthalasa Kanan.

    The individuals swearing the oaths to the Great Council (and to the very Gods themselves) included: Bailen Storm, VetTech, Deathshot, Kazam, and Aric Brightblade. An earlier ceremony was held for Sir Aesir as well, who was unable to attend the later ceremony. The ceremony was open to members of the Great Council and friends, but that did not stop several curious citizens of the Realm from also stopping by to bear witness.

    Before the main Oaths were spoken, General Laurana held a moment of silence for the departed former Steward of the Great Council, Gael Wordsworth.

    Proceeding the moment of silence, each member of the Knights of the Great Council spoke their oaths with the Gods as witness.

    Following the successful Oath-Swearing ceremony, a celebratory feast and duels were held at the Great Council's Tower located south of Britain.

    Its the new guild town that Telamon had constructed for TGC. Apparently @Alex Caember is the new Steward Apparent of Britania and he has returned to ensure Lord British's throne thrives.

    ok, I am just kidding about the guild town. But that Alex is a regular Aragorn!

    This ceremony was conducted in Lord British's castle in the city of compassion.

    As Jupiter stated, this is Lord British's castle - an unfortunately rarely-used but very awesome location.

    I can't take credit for the Knight Oath ceremony, @Lady Kashla was the one who put this together and she did a great job of it :)

    thanks for correcting history Alex.

    history is a mighty vessel which, if steered off course even slightly, can take ages and sometimes bloodshed to correct!

    @Lady Kashla, please forgive my folly.

    A few days before the Knight's Oath Ceremony, Theros Ironfeld, the Silver Arm of Ergoth and weapons master of the Knights of the Great Council, gathered with his companions in Lord British Forge. With the help and generosity of SteelyDan, our heroes came into possession of a golden runic hammer.
    Using his silver arm, the magic of the hammer and the blessings of the Gods of good, Theros forged the new Dragonlances, to provide an invaluable help to the Knights in this raging war against the evil armies.
    The hard work proved to be fruitful, for each new knight received his magic golden lance upon swearing the oath of loyalty.

    (I added the journal because I find the conversation with Gyles and Vindis so amusing hehehe)
    Thanks once again to @SteelyDan for his support!
