In Case of Court

Caterina greatly prefers to be surprised, but having her friends and family be able to be present is the higher priority. She prefers to receive awards in person and not virtually, and becomes anxious on webcams. Her preference for location, if it can be managed, is as close to her home Barony of Carolingia as possible, and ideally not at the Pennsic War, which much of her family does not attend. Should it become relevant, Caterina wishes to receive a Writ in advance of any Peerage so that her friends and family have time to plan for attending the vigil.

Please notify family members Kassandra Aiantide and Matilda of Carolingia directly of any awards in advance, as well as her Pelican, Justin du Coeur. These individuals should know how to proceed, but additional friends who may be contacted are Deirdre Grenewode, Eon, Eoghan Bastard mac Lachlainn, and/or her household of Lochleven and friends in the Worshipful Company of Their Majesties Underwear.
