THE DYAD DEBUT | HOUSE REINHOLD

[Hom 1988]

 

 

Issued by the County of Anairgrid

Atstana de Regne Petrère 203

 

DUALITY IS AN IMPORTANT ASPECT of House Reinhold’s philosophy, as is the celebration of all growth. Day and night, summer and winter, brother and sister. Each time a Reinhold reaches the age of adulthood, they are given a chance to show themselves before the Commonwealth’s society as they enter into it. It is a time-honored tradition that the newest generation will be given a celebration in which they can show off their hard earned skills, their intelligence, and their individual strengths. It is a gift to the house to have two of its youngest members reaching the age of adulthood within the same year, and such an event can only be honored with an appropriately grand celebration.

 

Alma Therese and Alford Ainsley have both been a shining pride of their house even in their adolescent years, dedicating themselves with intense passion to both schooling and training. Lady Alma has had an eye for nature since her childhood, with great care for animal life, a fascination with flora, and a deep understanding of the balance needed for our environment to thrive. As a young woman, this has evolved into a natural skill for the art of hunting and tracking. The young Lady has also taken a great interest in the realms of society, politics, and history, studying all three with equal fervor. 

 

Lord Alford has grown into a young man of great fortitude and strength, working past a severe childhood injury in order to train into a skilled fighter. Experienced in both the blade and the bow, Alford too is dedicated to the Reinhold legacy of maintaining balance in both nature and society. A well-studied young man as well as a well-trained one, he has a passion for reading, writing, and architecture.

 

 

In line with family tradition, Lady Alma and Lord Alford have set a challenge for the guests of their joint debut, in line with their shared skills and interests. Each guest of the celebration, alongside the siblings, will be given a challenge of dexterity, speed, and tracking, shooting down faux-targets in an archery game designed to test the skills a true hunt demands. Afterwards, all will be invited into the grand dining hall of Dùn Mòindamh for a traditional Agnethe feast, complete with music and entertainment.

 

ITINERARY

 

➼ THE HUNTER’S CHALLENGE

In the lightly forested lands beside the keep of Dùn Mòindamh, both amateur and experienced bowmen will find themselves challenged by hidden targets and a limited quiver. The siblings Lady Alma and Lord Alford invite their guests to compete against them in a unique archery contest, where they will not have to aim just for targets propped upon the ground, but those tucked in the bushes and hanging in the trees. Guests will be grouped into small teams, and given limited time to both locate their assigned targets and set loose their arrows with accuracy. The scores of all members of a team will be added together, with the winning team being gifted a hundred and fifty mina prize.

 

➼ THE GRAND FEAST

Once the challenge has concluded, the celebration will move inside the keep where guests will be treated to a grand Agnethe meal. Venison, boar, haggis, and sweet oatcakes are only a few of the finely prepared dishes that will be offered, alongside aged whisky and wine. Music will be played throughout the night to entertain, and all will have a chance to mingle with the hosts, the debuting pair, and their fellow guests.

"Reinholds have a reputation for being pretty!"

[truelarper 594]

 

Amid the ravaged splendor of the South – beauty strangled by the flames of the scorching sun – Alexandre halted, sensing motion above the river remnant. A lone courier dove laboured across the sky.    A single flyer tore free from its feet and drifted downward, twisting in the wind thick with dust like a leaf within autumn. Alexandre caught it between calloused gloves; the parchment cracked by sand and stained with travel.    For a moment, the beauty had fallen still. A rare smile crept, carved more from joy than resolve.   “At last,” he muttered, as though the words themselves were a spell to steady his heartbeat.
