Earl Marshal letter in The Pale – August 2020

Greetings to the people of the Midrealm, 

This is a difficult time for all of us.  A Pandemic and the regulations surrounding that affect our hobby.  As of the writing of this letter, we are still not opening any marshal activity. I want each of you to know that I am daily reviewing federal and state guidelines, as well as tracking the cases state by state.  I am personally in contact with my deputies and regionals, as well as Curia and the Crown on a regular basis to discuss the current state of activities. Thank you for your patience as we move through the coming weeks and months.

At the writing of this letter, no official martial/marshal activities are permitted in the Middle Kingdom.

As a side note, both Rapier and Armored Combat are rewriting their handbooks.  I hope that by my next letter we will have a copy of each to Curia for approval. I want these two handbooks to be completed prior to Sir Marcus stepping up as KEM.

I encourage you all to practice and continue to build the skills we will all need once we are able to start again.  Please follow all government guidelines and the directives of the Kingdom.

Respectfully, 
Duke Ullr, Kingdom Earl Marshal
