Greetings Everyone, I present to you one possible option for SSBB next year which is my bid for Sacred Stone Baronial Birthday 2025/Celebration of Mehregan.

Fellow Phoenixes, as you may have noticed, there have been a handful of divisive comments, regarding elements of our Society, online over the last couple of weeks. The individual statements are not relevant to this message, so if you haven’t seen them, there’s no reason to go looking.

For anyone who might have missed it, Spike is draped in black, Atlantia is in mourning. Sir Roland Brokentooth Wodeman, Baron Dressel of Seven Bends, and Syr Eldon Ungol have left us. Our Phoenix, and our heart, is in ashes.
