[Great Hall of Rockwall] News from Middle Kingdom

[Kelli Quinn]

The reign of the current soverigns to the south has come to an abrupt end. By pure accident, their majesties let their membership lapse.

Unfortunately, the prince and princess have not yet been chosen. The crown tourney was scheduled for May 25. So, a change of plans is in order. There will be 2 tourneys that day--one to serve out the current reign, another to take the prince/princess crowns.

More info on the double tourney at http://www.midrealm.org/CROWN2.htm

While it doesn't involve us, it is an education for newer members as to what happens in these rare cases.
