alt_luciusPreparation for Freedom Day has consumed most of the week and anticipate will dominate next week's agenda as well.
The celebrations this year ought to call to mind those of the Protectorate's fifth anniversary, including a showcase of concerts in the Protector's Park and a series of demonstrations of skill - under controlled conditions only - highlighting the accomplishments of Our Lord's glorious realm. A final concert on the eve of the 31st will culminate in Our Lord's presentation to the winners of an essay contest from the village schools, and of course the traditional fireworks.
Once those duties have been discharged, our private holiday arrangements have also been made and we shall proceed for a much-needed rest of our own, before Draco and Harry leave for their CCF programme in August.
Summer is, as always, a somewhat slower time with so many taking holidays but we can take comfort in the knowledge that the newest Director of Protectorate Affairs recognises no such boundary: The necessary business of the nation takes precedence over all other considerations for him!

However, I have obtained a pass for the Ouroboros Club so that you may attend as a guest. We have but to fill in the date and arrange to meet so that you will be afforded every courtesy.
Can assure you from close comparison that the two courses are quite different but either one is exceptional in its way.

Might it have fallen in your bag? It might still be in the suite but as I mentioned, next Thursday shan't be possible. Will send an elf to look if you've not seen it.
