In the Last 3 or 4 months I have had many many things happen to my SCA life that I never would have guessed could have happened. And I couldn’texplain how great and amazingit feels to be were I am at right now in everything SCA, I am building stronger and better relationships with people, enjoying every moment of my fighting and court life and to be honest I have never enjoyed myself so fully in about 10 years.
I guess the run down would work something like this, back a few months I was asked to be on the Queens Guard. At first I was un-controllablely nervous about that whole thing. As you know or may not know; my people skills are much better in small group or one on one than it is understanding what a whole group thinks is the right thing at the right moment. It got worked out and I recieved a monumental amount of help from D. Sebastian. This guys is a monster of a great man! He is just a great guy and willing to give to no end.
After D.Sebastian directions and aid I started to get the hang of being on the QG and rocken skulls. Than at Kings and Queens rattan Champs I was offered a great and humble honor; I was placed as the Queens Champ. I cant tell you how surprised and honored I was and still am about this! I have been told that my face was priceless when they offered this honor to me. And to be honest I wouldnt have guessed that they were going to call my name at all! I didnt do anything that day that I normally wouldnt have done, I fight the way I fight. I hit hard, take light and crush skulls when they let me. I try to have fun and when I step in the list I hope that my fun transfers to the other guy, so everyone leaves that day feeling great about them selves. Either way, I am and was floating on cloud 9.
Than at War of the Roses I got my little melon crushed
. I being as super large stupid butt hole decided it was a great idea to charge a sheild men, when I was fighting spear. Let me tell you I have had some stupid Ideas before but this one takes the cake! I dont lay a single ounce of blame on Kettel! He is a great and honorable guy and I would have rather been hit by a guy I know than I guy I dont. But either way, I got hit in the neck (were it missed my armour) and it sent me to the ropes. Instead of sitting the rest of the day out, I deside to get my sheild and go back out there. Not my smartest moment in life. After an other hour I got clocked good and hard by a pole, that made me go sit down. The end resolute was: Go home and let your brain heal! And the boss over rule me and told me we were heading home. Smart idea and the right one to make, I dont think I would have disagreed with anything he said at that point.
War of the Roses was a blast other wise as always, my knight took better care of me than I could ever ask! He is a great man and anyone that thinks different will be shut the hell up, and quickly. That is all I have to say on that subject. And I added a pic because I like it (when I get home tonight).
