"It wasn't the reward that mattered or the recognition you might harvest. It was your depth of commitment, your quality of service, the product of your devotion -- these were the things that counted in a life. When you gave purely, the honor came in the giving, and that was honor enough."

That flamberge is quite big, yes, but not as tall as the one I'm keeping. The one I kept is 6'3".

Oh, the flamberge has its own corner. It demands it.

Brass-hilted claymore

This one is still around. Free to a good home, if you can take it in-person (that is, without shipping).

No, I suppose not. :)


Sir Brian, maybe we can try to get it into your hands in the next few weeks, so I don't have to move it to a new place (assuming we get the house we're looking at; haven't made the offer yet).

Well there is the MASHS' free-play Sunday in the last weekend of March, is that soon enough or does it need to be sooner?  ???

Sir Edward, if you end up moving and want to drop the sword off with me some time in Charles Town, I can hold it here until our April PA event and take it to Sir Brian then.. not sure if that's more effort/headache than just moving the sword when you move though. :)

We'll see how it goes. We still haven't submitted the offer on the house yet, but we're aiming for around March 28 as a settlement date in the paperwork. It's so completely up in the air at the moment that I can't really make plans around it. They may reject our offer, and not negotiate to something we can agree on. We'll have to see.
