THE WAYS OF THE LAND

**WHERE LEGEND AND IMAGINATION MEET**

1. All shall treat each other with COURTesy and in a Chivalric manner at all times.
2. Petitions for Grants of Titles and Honors may be from any individual... as will the filing of complaints as Queen Nighean's Court is run with equity and by peers.
3. Individuals may have more than one persona.
4. We exist NOT in competition to other reenactment groups, but to provide an additional means of expression and encouragement for individual interests. In fact, we encourage multiple affiliations due to the diversity and emphasis.
5. All personas have a running history in our lands. Individuals should express these development to aid in the interaction of all. Personas belonging to other recreationist groups are welcome and recognized and respected. Nobility of other realms have no power here.. but are shown the proper respect and protocol of a visiting dignitary and are expected to show the same.
6. Anachronism and authenticity is to be balanced with practicality and not misused so as to discourage creativity. (In other words... no Garb Police or put-downs).
7. The greatest of all is our purpose... to have Fun! When it ceases to be fun we fall short of our goal.
