Greetings to all,

After over a hundred spars, broken limbs, epileptic fits and
concussions, the First Sapience-wide Monk Tournament has finished and I
have the results. We had 25 combatants and a great deal of activity with
most fights being decided by the best of three. My congratulations to
all entrants for their diligent focus on the martial arts.

The Lord Caspian will mail out gold prizes, badges for first and second
prize and badges of honor. If you have a friend who has earned a badge,
have them show you - it took some effort to win!
