Tales From Estrella: The Fun Barony

We spent a good chunk of Friday night in the Baronial pavilion hanging out and shooting crickets off the walls with my peanut crossbow. Viscount T and his friends were with us. At one point we were talking about assorted shenanigans that we get up to, to Finngall, who was a fellow from the Summits that was camping with us.

"That's why we're the fun barony," I say with a tone that indicates it's a popular catch-phrase in Montengarde.
"Wait a second... Montengarde is the fun Barony?" asks Viscount T, "What the heck do you call Borealis?"
"You're the Boring Aliens", I blurt out without thinking.

minyata jumps in to prevent an interbaronial incident.

"FV from Borealis used that term to refer to himself in court at Winter War," she says, deflecting the blame from us.
"He did? I guess I'll have to have a word with him at the next heavy practise," says Viscount T with a tone suggesting that have a word with him was synonymous with beat him with rattan.

While it sounds like violence is going to be rained down on the unfortunate FV, in actuality everyone took the trash-talking in good humour. I hope.

Regarding Finngall, he was such a great help and good company that we we're going to make him an honorary member of Montengarde. Or at least we were until the Prince announced that he should be made an honorary Avacalian instead. Huzzah.
