A Tenth Baronage has been selected!

Salve Accolens!

The votes are in, the ballots are counted, and counted again. And maybe even again. The Barony-Marche of the Debatable Lands has officially selected its tenth baronage…

Magister Owen Tegg and Her Ladyship Elinor Walden!

We’d also like to say thank you to the candidates Breherys Gwendolyn the Graceful , Sir Maghnus an Chnoic na n’Iora, THLord Skjoldr Bjorn, and THLady Arthes MacLeod – who ran with such dignity, grace, and passion.

Vivant to all of our candidates and to staying a Barony!

The investiture of Owen and Elinor will be held on December 19th, 2026 at the Unitarian Universalist Church of the North Hills. Keep your eyes out for more information shortly.

YIS,

Michi
Comet Pursuivant
