    To be Knighted

    A select group of Arconians will receive their Knighthood prior to the Grand Fencing
    Tournament. I must consult with the queen before making an official announcement. I believe she is considering travel plans.
    We will keep you informed.
    King Arcon

    I would like to thank the generous royal family for knighting me. I would also be curious to find out who else was knighted.

    You're most graciously welcome Legerto. And what may I inquire, have I done or accomplished to receive congratulations?

    You must forgive me for I have SOF (syndrome of forgetfulness!)

    Not just you, Shadow...I was wondering the same thing, thinking perhaps I'd missed something.

    OOps, my blunder, I meant Swordsman.

    Congats to Swordsman!!!!

    (Keep in mind, I'm the "Old dog." The brain doesn't always work as it should.)

    I'm sure Shadow deserves something too.

    Many thanks, my friend. I shall recommend you and FencingAngel to the king for knighting as well.

    Ummmm,

    I think Arcon wants to do the knighting before the fencing tourney, so this thread is a little premature. Let him do his thing.

    Don't bother with the unecessary thanks, FencingAngel. To me, anyway.

    Like I said, FencingAngel, unnecessary.

    By the way, last I checked I'm just one person (Not counting the voices in my head), so it's just Swordsman, not men.
