Thoughts on Vindheim Premier Coronet Tourney:

The story called Vindheim had its opening pages written this past Saturday. Vivat Romanius, who sits as Her first Prince, and his inspiration, Princess Deanna. I was honored to be one of the first list of heroes who sought the Coronets.

The day was cold, but fierce were the fires of we combatants. It was a joy to face Lord Oddr Marsson, Baron Micolay Haiduk and Centurion Bjorn hestr Hauksson - who bested me after some amazing and VERY taxing combat. Thank you so much, my friends.

Throughout the day my AMAZING wife was supportive and understanding of the time I needed to do what I was doing and did very little chiding of my not being able to watch the boys. My Love, you are beyond words. I Love You.

In evening court, I watched from a distance as so many well deserved folk were recognized for their hard work and the fruits of their labors, all the while holding Ozzy against my chest as he finally got to nap.

Until the Centurions were called and we welcomed two new brothers, who I have called friend for some time. Congratulations again Set and Turpin! I was in the back with my brother Centurions when the Order or Chivalry was called. Until I heard my name cried out. My heart stopped.

I am honored to be asked to join such an Order and to stand with such ranks of Gentles that I saw and still see as heroes, mentors and dear friends. My thanks (humble and deep) to Their Stellar Majesties Floki and Elizabeth for this offer which I accepted with all my heart.

What a glorious day.
So say I, Andrew Turnbull, Knight-Elect.

HE Andrew Turnbull is known as a former Baron of Namron and a Chivalric fighter. But - have you heard him sing? It was at his home around a bonfire one night during a social gather that I heard him for the first time. He filked "The High King’s Fields of Glory" and made it about our own beloved Ansteorra. I remember being in awe of his voice and filled with pride as he sang about our kingdom. Whenever he sits around a bardic circle, there is a request for his song.

I was first introduced to Andrew in something of a sideways manner just after he married Kyna Terricsdottir, whom I had known since my first month in the society, years before. But I think my real moment of truly meeting this man came at Gulf Wars about a year later. It was late...really late, and both of us were categorically dead on our feet. I had taken a rest in an empty chair to give my knees a break, had Andrew has sat down, looking no less worn out, on the other side of the small pavilion. He said “I’m just going to sit down for a moment, but I so need to get some sleep in the next five minutes.” We just started talking at that point, casual, exhausted conversation shared between two people who were not only willing, but glad to run themselves completely ragged for the hobby they love. Something like an hour and a half later, we both finally decided that we did, in fact, have to stop talking and actually get some sleep, but we also both apologized for having to cut the conversation off as well. I don’t think there is any one thing about him that sets him apart, but rather just the overall fact that he is such an earnest, hard working, well read, and kind hearted person, a true joy of a person to know and call a friend.

About 5 years ago, as something of a side project, I started writing title cards for people along the theme of “If I were to introduce you in a book, this is how I would do it”. This is what I wrote for Andrew:

“There was a silent resoluteness to Andrew, a man rigidly confident in his place in the world, but none the less glad for it at the same time. Like a bolder in the evening surf, his presence was an afterthought, a piece of the scenery, until you ran headlong into him, and learned that his calm demeanor was surpassed only by his silent strength. For some, his strength was the promise of a painful defeat after an ill advised challenge, but for others the regal confidence he carried with him was reinforcement rivaling any army. A man of quiet power, and man a quiet joy.”

Trivia:

Andrew Turnbull, and his wife, Kyna Terricsdottir, both appear as themselves in the SCA-centered mystery novel “In the Shadow of Honor” by Cisco Cividanes.
