Behind every great Noble, there are retinue…
Retinue is an extremely important part of every reign and any court activity that you see; they attend the Royals, organize court proceedings, are are often the organizers of all of the pageantry that makes these experiences so rich.
For the court of Iago and Lucia, a staff of permanent retinue has not yet been established for the core positions, and they would LOVE to have volunteers- experienced and brand new- to help fill out that retinue at both local and kingdom events. If you have questions, or would like to volunteer, please contact them.

They have been granted our authority to make decisions and direct activities on their Excellencies behalf. Any business that needs to come to their Excellencies should go through a Head of Retinue first.
