The Commander rode into the Great Hall upon his horse. A few office squires jumped up and tried to look busy.
"Greetings Knights and Squires! It's good to see you all, there's a terrible storm out there, and I've heard this last Review Day even brought a few monsters. I am glad the Knights were around to defend the Green Room!"
Knight FlamingPhoenix (@FlamingPhoenix) stepped forward with a mixture of ink and melted snow forming at her feet. "Hello Commander, I'm here for my village."
The Captain of the Guard @LadyBird rushed forward with a map of the lands surrounding the Green Room. "We have some free territory here, here, and here, there's sort of a village in the works here but the taxes are out of control and there have been at least two ogre sightings, so you might want to stay clear of the southeast corner"
The Commander circled a small village wedged between the forests and the Green Room - "This one will do just fine! Knight FlamingPhoenix, I am assigning you Kingdom Parcel 842. Once you've designated a name for the village please let us know, so we can make note of it on the maps and make sure everything's set for insurance purposes.
You are hereby awarded this village, to care and to protect. I know you will honor this responsibility! Huzzah!"
Just as the Commander was turning to leave to his office, he noted a carefully ordered log sitting on the ground. "Hmm, it says it belongs to a Squire but where have they gone?"
The doors of the Great Hall thudded open, while the wind howled from the storms outside, and Squire Paperforest (@paperforest) stumbled in looking half frozen from the cold. Knights @fraey and @EternalRain rushed forward to offer the shivering squire a hand and a mug of cocoa. The Commander nodded to Knight Alliyah who unrolled the signature green carpet and beckoned the Squires forward with the KotGR Flags as well as the customary Knights Marching Band (with a few noticeably out of tune trumpets). Amidst the noise Squire Paperforest followed the green carpet to the front of the hall and kneeled.
"Squire Paperforest you are new to the site, but already show bravery and expertise in your reviewing. You have fought honorably in this last battle of the February Review Day and fought many foes who stood in your way. I hereby award you with the rank and title of Knight of the Green Room - and I welcome you officially to our order! You shall now be known as Knight Paperforest!"
And the Knights and Squires assembled shouted "Huzzah!"
