Potted Arms

Potted arms was a nice easy-going event. The schedule was set up well, the fighting looked fun. We did the Heraldic Tournament, I was talking to Sorcha, she asked if I was participating in that. I said I wasn't sure, I wasn't in the best of moods. As I'm saying that Jean Xavier comes over and asks if I'd herald for him. I looked at Sorcha and said "Guess I am!" I can't turn JX down, he's awesome people.

I checked in with Demetrio a few times over the day to make sure he had all herald info he needed for court. I offered to come up with the entourage and guide him through it. After the first one or two cues I stepped back to see if he'd take it from there or look to me for guidance. He did it all (Except announcing the winner of the rapier tourney, because he won that!) and handled it extremely well. He had taken my advice on changing up the wording of calling people into court. And he's a former theater kid, so he spoke clearly. After court I spoke to the coronet and told them I have full confidence that he'll be a great herald. A few days after the event he messaged me and asked me to check over the court report before he sent it in, and he did a fine job on that so with my blessings off it got filed with the EK heralds as well as sent to the barony newsletter.
