From Their Majesties Maynard and Liadain

Warmest wishes and heartfelt greetings nto all who read these words, from Maynard and Liadain, King and Queen of Sylvan Æthelmearc.

As We pen this letter, We are struck with how much has changed over this past year and the day in October We won Crown Tournament. This would normally be Our last missive, but “normal” has now has new meaning – as do so many other things. Though much has changed, one constant remains – the strength, adaptability, and glory of Æthelmearc – which are a true joy to behold.

Æthelmearc is blessed with remarkable leadership and support from the ground up. We cannot express enough how proud and humbled we are to be part of this incredible organization as we continue to flourish despite adversity. Thank you, to our officers, leaders, teachers, artisans, mentors, participants – each and every one of you – no matter your role – for your part in making every day better. Though uncertainties remain, the success of our Kingdom is certain.

Our path as Monarchs remains somewhat unclear until we are once again able to safely return to in-person events. Know that We continue to stand in support of you, our Realm and Society and will do whatever is necessary to ensure continued health and happiness of our people and organization. They Sylvan Line will continue!

We deeply appreciate your continued support of Kingdom and Society directives. We know it is difficult, but we are in this together and our sacrifices now, will ensure a better tomorrow. We urge you to continue to participate in virtual events – there are so many! Check the Kingdom Website for up-to-date information.
