Again, in short: guards! Our Kingdom does not always have
peaceful relations with its neighboring
kingdoms. Our Barony does not always have peaceful relations with its
neighboring groups. Indeed if a dramatic
storyline develops the Baron may not always have peaceful relations with
the Baroness! <grin> Embracing feudalism
in the Current Middle Ages is embracing (good natured) conflict. And that
conflict is best played out publicly in the
field of honor and not whispered behind fans.
