At the Royal Fencing Championship on February 4, 2012, Eva became a Companion of the Order of the Laurel! Before her elevation, I released her from my service and received back her belt. Many friends contributed to the vigil and the regalia. The speakers recommending her elevation were: Chivalry - Master Seosamh; Pelican - Mistress Rhiannon; Lady of the Rose - Countess Alethea; and Laurel - Mistress Vairavi.

More About Eva...
Eva lives in the Barony of Carolingia in the East Kingdom. I introduced her to archery at Pennsic 2005 and helped her purchase a bow. In the Fall of 2006, she worked with Master Li Kung Lo to build her own arrows, then I helped her make her own back quiver and bracer the following Spring; she has been shooting regularly under Uncle Li's coaching. She became my apprentice at GNE War July 14, 2007. Eva has been creating scrolls for her Barony and her Kingdom since January 2008.
