====Robin's Quest:====
In June of 2018, during an informal conversation with His Grace Duke Jason, then King Jason, Lord Robin Carrot expressed two concerns: 1. If music was allowed to be played by musicians during any and all Society events and 2. a desire to begin a path of becoming a Laurel. Lord Carrot also stated that he had spoken with several wonderful and informative Laurels, but he still wasn’t sure what work he had to do to get started on his path. His Majesty, King Jason, not only assured Lord Carrot, that he and any musicians would be allowed and encouraged to share their musical talents openly at any event, but was also assured that he would be given a quest to complete to teach him about what it means to be a member of the peerage, what is expected of the peerage, the student/teacher relationship, and the duties and expectations of a consort. <BR><BR>
During the Summer Crown Tourney, after heralding for his fighter, Lars Magnus, The king presented Lord Carrot with a leather string pouch and directed him to receive his quest before the evening court. The quest composed of five conditions: <BR><BR>
#You must question 25 peers of the realm. Only 5 can be from the Southern Region
#You must question 10 Ladies of the Rose. Only 3 can be from the Southern Region
#All answers must be recorded and presented back to me (the Crown).
#All interviewees must be asked at least 5 questions.
#You cannot take an apprenticeship until you have have completed the quest.
<BR>
Lord Carrot accepted this charge after the conditions and duties were explained. The summary of his quest can be found here:  [[The Quest of Robin de Chantenay Carrot]]

It's probably a good idea for member of the populace to check in with Robin to make sure that he has eaten, drunk and sat down for a while.  Otherwise, Robin is good to go and ready for anything.

====In Case of Court:====
Robin often attends events alone.  Robin appreciates any volunteers that would like to escort him. If no escorts are available, he can enter court alone, no biggie.<BR>
