This looks like the point in the adventure when all the pilgrims and the exhausted and overwhelmed soldiers cry out in relief because the mighty have arrived!

Great picture....beautiful faire day. 

[Sir William Marcus]

Grammercy Frere Cliff and Sister Hatchet. I must confess it was actually really hard  to keep a straight face in those photo's due to the company we had that day.  It's slightly obvious in the top photo when you see Sir Joseph as he just couldn't keep a straight face anymore 

Sister Hatchet, we even stumbled upon a Lady Warrior amongst the crowds and took her photo in your honor.

[Femme Falchion]

How kind of you Brother William.  Always enjoy seeing how the other Warrior Sisters are garbing.  Did you inquire into her Order?  But wait....it looks as if she is about to give a tithe to the Temple? 

Please share the rest of your journey when you have the time.

BTW....GREAT new avatar

We're also trying a trial run at the ARF!



Hopefully Frere Jesse and his Brothers can attend.

This morning, while taking "Her Majesty" to her other weekday Kingdom, we stopped at a local food establishment, to secure her a biscuit. Dazzled by her charm, the local peasants gave her a gift; a book with many activities to fill her spare time with-mazes, puzzles, coloring challenges.

Well it was still minutes to sunrise, so the cabin area of our conveyance was still dark, while she scanned over its' contents to see if it would satisfactorily meet her demands. Half way to the Kingdom, she let out an excited yell, "Daddy,daddy...look!", and what to my tired eyes is unveiled......




It's catching on!!! 

[Sir William Marcus]

RIGHT ON with a thunderous DEUS VULT!! 



Gotta love it!

just to introduce my self alittle more im going to share my favorite quote
"[A Templar Knight] is truly a fearless knight, and secure on every side, for his soul is protected by the armor of faith, just as his body is protected by the armor of steel. He is thus doubly-armed, and need fear neither demons nor men." Bernard de Clairvaux, c. 1135

i am currently attending school to become a medieval historian. i love all things about the templars and other orders, and i beleive that this stuff is 100% relative to todays world! i just turned 19 today and id like to shaare my birthday cake with everyone!

[Sir William Marcus]

Natal Day Wishes frere Jesse! 

What a Cake! I do believe, if my memory serves me correctly, that is the first Templar/Crusader cake I have ever seen!


If I may add as it is a favorite of mine as well..

"A New Knighthood has appeared in the land of The Incarnation, a Knighthood which fights a double battle, against adversaries of flesh and blood and against the Spirit of Evil. I do not think it a marvelous thing that these Knights resist physical enemies with physical force, because that, I know, is not rare. But they take up arms with forces of the Spirit against vices and Demons, and that I call not only marvelous, but worthy of all the praise given to men of God..... The Knight who protects his soul with the Armor of Faith, as he covers his body with a coat of mail, is truly without fear and above reproach. Doubly armed, he fears neither men nor Demons."


St. Bernard of Clairvoux
