In short: someone to fight for. In the same way a fighter takes
a token from the gentle who holds their
heart strings to inspire them on the field, the Baron and Baroness should
be an inspiration to all those who take the
field on behalf of Carolingia. I would hope that we conduct ourselves in
such a manner as to be worthy of that respect
and drive our fencers, and all martial activities, on to greater honor!
