Wednesday of War Week has a focus on one of the most important aspects of our Society: The children. Because without them, the SCA falls by the wayside. It grays out. It fades into obscurity. We don’t want that; therefore, Wednesday is a multi-department undertaking to ensure that the kids’ Dream of the SCA comes true as well.

The Ladies Rapier Tourney had the largest turnout in the tourney’s history with 43 entrants. Participants had “Fight Me” signs and nametags in honor of the late Maestra Hawke Miriam. Brighid, one of the organizers of the tourney, was represented by a photo poster, having moved to An Tir.
The tourney was single elimination until the finals. The concluding bout between Eyrny of Ealdormere and Celestria of Atlantia was fought best two out of three. Celestria was the victor.

Monday’s Armored Town Battle had some surprises! The Tuchux fighting force almost looked ready to join the Midrealm, but minutes before the starting cannon sounded, they moved en masse to the Eastern side of the field. The East took the morning’s War Point. Fighters on both sides fought bravely! Tuesday’s War Points will include the 8 am Thrown Weapons Championship, The Armor and Rapier Woods Battles (weather permitting), as well as Combat Archery and Siege Battle at 3 pm.

While the SCA is known for its family friendly entertainment and image, another side is emerging, previously taboo and shunned. But, in a modern era of sex positivity, feminism, and widening support for marginalized communities, it should come as no surprise that the Knowne World Courtesans have carved out an elegant and blissful niche to open eyes and ears to their world.
