OMFG! I'M BACK.. AND MOSTLY ALIVE! XD
The war camp was interesting to say the least. When we arrived at the area, they had torrential rains in the area for the past week or so. So, to put it lightly, it was a muddy swamp. After spending several hours getting everything set up in the mud (Which was not fun to say the least), let's just say I didn't stay in garb long.. I went to bed around 7 pm, I think. Unfortunately, as the Newfies who set up camp not far from us had apparently brewed some really good mead that they were sharing with anyone who dropped by Teehee X3
Saturday, by the end of it, wasn't that great of a day, although it had started out well. Early in the morning, I recieved a mehndi decoration (aka henna 'tattoo') for fun. The rest of the day I spent being very anti-social until it was time for court. The King and Queen were at the war camp, because they have been debating on dissolving the Barony of Ruantallan for a while now, due to some complaints they had recieved from a few people. Although their highnesses chose to keep the barony alive, they did something very stupid and thoughtless that has just increased the rifts between the numourus factions beginning to grow within the area.
Since the Barony was to be kept alive, the question of who the new Baron and Baroness was to be considered. Many did not even think of it as a question, as elections were held before, and a couple had been selected. However, only five minutes before the court began, one of the two couples that had lost in the elections, were informed that they were to take over. The couple that had won were never informed until the the new baron and baroness had been called forth. As you can imagine, many people were outraged at this, and a large group of them simply left (Most of which was made up of the pirates, who were more angered at how the new baron and baroness picked, not because of who.). Shortly after, the court was paused due to a sudden onslaught of rain. Ironically enough, rolls of thunder could be heard even before the court began.
Even the awards that were handed out after court had once again began, didn't uplift the mood of the people watching. No one but their Highnesses seemed okay with the desicion. Even the new baroness burst out into tears during a discussion that took place after court. I, on the other hand, unlike many of the people drinking, singing and making one really big fire that night, just went to bed completely disgusted.
Sunday, however, was a fair bit better. I was actually social for once. ( Several people decided to pretend to have heart attacks when they noticed -.-; ) I met and made friends with several of the pirates, and even got into the meeting they held that day with some help from one of the cute guys who was a member. Didn't get to stay there the entire time, but apparently one of the guys saluted cleavage after I had left. Can't say he didn't do it for no reason.. <_< >_>
Not much happened after that, other then a few games of Munchkin Impossible, lots of rain and a bit of cuddling after that. (And packing stuff up in the mud *Twitch*)
All around, ignoring a few incidents, missed ferries and the fact it was a camping event.. it was a pretty good weekend
