Sea Raids Atlantia & Trimaris
Talewinds, January AS XXVII, 1993 1-15/17-93 The battle between Trimaris and Atlantia will be held in Savannah GA. The war will consist of two Field Battles, two Town Battles, a Champions Battle, a Bridge Battle, a Duello Melee, Target Archery and Arts & Sciences competitions. There will also be a Friendship Battle on Saturday Morning. All Town and Field Battles will include Combat Archers. The feast is a catered sign-up dinner by and at For Jackson, with a brief historical presentation also done by members of the Fort, this feast is limited to 500. Autocrat Bran Trefonnen.
The Story – At their Coronation King Baldar Langstriter and Queen Rhianna Valeria, Monarchs of Trimaris, drew a sword from a great stone as symbol of Their True Kingship. Such a miraculous stone, so steeped in power, must surely have traced its origin to Atlantia. Thus did the Atlantian Monarchs, King Stefan and Queen Twila have the stone liberated and returned to Their Realm. But King Baldar has sworn that the stone shall be returned. And King Stefan has vowed that no Trimarian shall set foot on Atlantian soil to retrieve it. Thus do the two armies gather at Atlantia’s southernmost border and prepare to unleash the Dogs of War.
From the Crown – “…Our annual war with Atlantia will be held this year at two sites in Savannah, GA. The first is Fort Jackson, a brick and wooden for dating back to pre-civil war. With its moat, parapets, and causeway it offers an excellent opportunity to get a real feel of a medieval castle. Anyone who has been to Gatalop knows how special it can be. The second site is the Roundhouse Complex; a reconstructed railroad repair station that offers an incredible broken town battle possibility. Just imagine real walls and doorways instead of hay bales…”
Talewinds, March AS XXVII, 1993, From the Rapier Marshal. Sea Raids was a momentous occasion for rapier combat. We held a Grand Melee, approximately 26 Atlantians vs. 23 Trimarians. There were many points of chivalry and honor shown, but we lost the point.
Talewinds, March AS XXVII, 1993 War Point Results: Field Battle – Atlantia, Bridge battle- Trimaris, Champions Lyst – Trimaris, Town Battle – Atlantia, Fencing Point – Atlantia, Archery point – Atlantia, Art Sci point – Atlantia.

Royal Caravan to Lost Castillos del Oro
The Crown will travel to Los Castillos del Oro on 2-5-93. Talewinds, April AS XXVII, 1993 Master Erik of Telemark reports. Early in February, the Crown and four of the Great Officers traveled to the far southern reaches of Trimaris, Los Castillos del Oro. We saw the Dragon’s Trench, did various amounts of shopping and generally enjoyed the hospitality of the good folk of Lost Castillos. Touring Panama was basically not done due to safety problems, although His Majesty did go with several fighters to see the ruins destroyed by Sir Francis Drake. They were not bothered by the local drug dealers who carried on business as usual. The local folk hosted an all day fighter practice and pot luc feast on Saturday followed by a lyst and feast on Sunday. Customs was kind enough not to search our luggage so the soil of Trimaris inside made it to the Trench and Mistress Brigit’s Llama tapestry find came back to the mainland without any problems. For some of us Los Castillos del Oro was a trip back to when we were founding groups in the early 70’s. The members of the shire have forged out a group in an SCA void. Like the first members of Meridies and Trimaris they have done their best to interpret the publications sent to them into their own brand of the SCA. They have done a fine job. Because of their military membership, they have been influenced by many other Kingdom customs. All this blends into a new personality which is very pleasant to witness. Watching and hearing tales of their struggles to exist, I was reminded of the frustrations of being 12 – 14 hours from the next closest group. It is a humbling experience to realize that in their case, they would kill for a chance of visiting another SCA group with only the investment of a 12 hours drive as a requirement. Their arts and fighting projects are in full swing. We saw some fine examples of costuming and a thriving bardic tradition in the forming. One performance which really impressed me was a bardic play presented by a group of teenagers to the Crown in Court. Due to the isolation, the group is still having a hard time with research and documentation.

Speaking from a viewpoint of an Arts/Sci judge the Arts/Sci competition was magnificent. Trimaris had over 140 entries, including works from 13 Laurels and 7 Knights, for a total point count of 2100.
