!!! THE SECONDWAVE OF CAPTURE !!!!!!
To the Brethren of Wessex
The date of the eighteenth of October 2016 heralds a new
awakening, for capture is on the minds of those from
Wiltshire, mainly those fearless Saxon mercenaries from
Malmesbury.
Having attended an assembly of warlords from the host
ÆTHELRED REX number sixty-six it came to pass that one
of the fearless warriors Mervyn of Pucklechurch stood and
demanded possession of the ancient and sacred Bee-hive that
stood on the grounds within Burnham. He charged the
assembly that five mercenries from his village demand
possesion of the Bee-hive. The elders and scribes of importance
within the temple rejected the claim saying that on this
Installation assembly it was not allowable to demand such
an imposition and that they should withdraw their claim.
They having been rejected but not outstanding, the
mercenaries at that evenings feast, summoned the scribe
Ragnor Wright who rose with fury and announced that the
parchment that he held in his possession confirmed that a legal take of the bee-hive was mandatary and
demanded the handing over of this rightful possession to be taken to Malmesbury for safe keeping.
ÆTHELRED executive having examined the document relented and agreed that the document was in
good order and they would honor the text within.
The Saxon mercenaries from Malmesbury rejoiced with acclamation and on this occasion they declared
that there would be no blood spilled on this day. Having placed the Bee-hive in their chariot they
eventually returned to the place of their abode.
