Promotions Ceremony February 1457
All week long the preparations for the ceremony have been underway.
The Castle's Great Hall now ready to sit all the men and women who have honorably served Cumbria, as well as State Dignitaries who have come to show their appreciation to Mountaineers.
Drinks--Good Celtic Honey Meade and Stout English Ale--and Food are in abundance.

Elmix arrives and see he is first who arrived.
He see that the hall is well prepared. The personal who did this have really made a very good job.
Elmix finds Mini and since no one else is here, he asks if he can help her with something before others start to arrive.

Majestic arrives to this Gorgeous Hall wondering where he should go. He sees Mini and Elmix already here and greets them both. He asked where he should be when the ceremony begins.

"Thank you, Elmix, but all is ready," Mini is replying as Maj walks up. She greets him warmly and says, "You are free to converse with old friends...you may be standing or seated at a table. It really matters not, as long as you feel comfortable. This ceremony is for you and your comrades for having helped Cumberland so much."

All right Mini, Elmix answers, but if there anything i can help you with, just ask me

Beemo walked into the hall shaking her head wondering why she let Mini talk her into signing up for this again. Maybe this time things will be better, she thought as she walked towards the table with the drinks. The only way to truly bear any pomp is to be relatively inebriated, well at least enough that the long speeches do not seem so long.

Indeed, everyone needed to drink lots of beer, but not so they could endure the long speeches. No. They had to drink lots of beer so they could win the drinking game!

Re: Promotions Ceremony February 1457
Emrys walked into the large hall, in awe of all the preparations. He decided to watch the events so he could finally reconcile the names he'd heard with actual faces. He huddled himself in one corner to observe the festivities. Like any other recruit, he wanted to see who would be the new Commander and the new Champion. Though he didn't know a lot of people, even in his home town, he wondered if he would ever see any familiar faces.

Richgrams has finally found her way here and is happy to find familiar faces.
She walks over to Majestic first, as she knows him the best.
Hi Maj! Been here long?

As he hears there will be a drinking game, he remembers one of his ceremonies where the they had a dancing competition and the one or the pair who danced the best would get the first prize.
At the end the winner appeared the General, who did prepared in bar drinking and made his performance by dancing on stool for some small time which ended with is fall. The Judge awarded him with 1-st prize.
Elmix thinks this might go here too, but he better not drink too much, so gets another cup of beer for now still thinking if he need to prepare more
He notices Lady Richgrams arrived so goes and greets her.

Re: Promotions Ceremony February 1457
shane arrives at the ceremony in his dress uniform, he had to have it tailored as the long trips to the border have made him thinner than before. He is stunned to see the Hall is such beauty, he gathers himself and grabs a tall mug of Ale to wet his whistle while awaiting for the ceremony to begin.

Re: Promotions Ceremony February 1457
Emrys nibbled on bread and cheese while watching the new arrivals. He guessed that it probably wouldn't take long before someone gets up the podium and deliver a speech. He took a sip from his mug as his eyes wandered. He thought he saw someone from his town but wasn't sure. He wondered if medals and trophies would be awarded. It would be nice to see some real live heroes... He silently quipped before taking another drink in honor of those who have fallen in battle.

Re: Promotions Ceremony February 1457
Miniphoenix wanted to give all the soldiers some time to relax and talk to each other before she began her speech. After a few hours of merrymaking, the noise of the crowd became a bit quieter, and she decided to use this to her advantage. Stepping up to the podium, she waited until some noticed she was there.
"Greetings fellow Soldiers!"
Mini saluted them.
"I always look forward to Promotion day. It's when you get to drink lots of Ale at the expense of Elmix's personal stash. Then I don't have to worry about him getting drunk for a few days"
"But Promotions are important for another reason. It's when the county recognizes you and gives you its thanks for all that you've done. Without you, we may not be. Countless rogues have tried to take away our freedom, but you are the few that have stood proud and defended us and our liberties. Thank you!
I could go on and on speaking of all the great deeds you all have done. However, rather than living up to Beemo's expectations and boring you with a long-winded speech, I've decided not to torture you. Our brave soldiers deserve to be treated better.
So with that said..."
Mini unrolls a scroll.
"We have many who have done a great service and deserve a promotion. Let's thank these men and women who've stood by Cumbria...
JillyJonkers....Guardsman
Kallyana........Guardsman
Nathaniele......Guardsman
Pizzabandit.....Guardsman
Emrys...........Bowman
Majestic........Bowman
Rafay...........Billman
Beemo...........Billman
Victorious......Apprentice-at-Arms
Chagryn.........Paladin
Richgrams.......Paladin
Please give these dedicated men and women an applause."
Mini clapped.
After the cheering died down, she motioned that she wasn't yet finished.
"We have some special ranks to announce....
Shanehall16, promoted to Standard Bearer
And
Elmix, Champion of Cumbria"

Re: Promotions Ceremony February 1457
As he came to greet Sir Shane, they finally had some time to talk up a bit
I am good now that i am here and soon be even better. It is great we can be here for some time, but it seems we have to go for a new adventure already.
He gives a scroll of information to Sir Shane and it was something about Carlisle.
As theyr nice Captain Mini greeted them, it was time to stop to drink, so Elmix puts his glass down and listens
As he hears further...
You are kidding, right?
That actually did not matter, but she indeed would not have to worry about him getting drunk. There will be nothing to drink left for him after such ceremony.
As he hears all CM soldiers who have received the promotion, he do joins the applause.
He was happy to hear Sir Shane received a special promotion. He really deserved it for his hard work.
As he hears he is the next Champion of Cumbria, this makes him happy that soldiers have made such choice. He will do all he can to be able to appoint the hopes of soldiers who put theyr trust in him by voting for him.
The ceremony did not seemed to end yet and he still had a chance to get another glass (hopefully) so he goes to congratulate follow CM soldiers who have received theyr promotions.

Re: Promotions Ceremony February 1457
Emrys' attention shifted forward when the captain when up to the podium. He was quite a distance from her as he was seated at a far corner. He took a swig from his ale to help with the growing thirst. His eyes opened wide and he very nearly choked when he heard his name. He put the mug down and thrusted the palm of his hand against his chest to help him catch his breath. He didn't think he had been a Mountaineer long enough to have been included. But knew his superiors never made a mistake when it came to things like this. He straightened himself and proudly wore his new rank and badge. There was still work to be done.
He picked up his almost empty mug and raised it, "Congratulations to everyone. And cheers! To the Mountaineers!"
