Court Archery

Court Archery is a common tradition within the Nefadric Empire, usually practiced by noble handmaidens. A court archery session, especialy a relaxed court archery session, should not to be mistaken for regular archery practice, as various etiquette rules and a very certain mannerism must be upheld. Failing to do so is considered very rude if not outright dishonnorable.

Participants

In a relaxed session participants are generaly free to form teams as they wish. However, in general it is considered the norm to stay in ones court group and only to mingle if a friendly relationship has been established. Should someone of a higher rank decide to join the session, thier underlings and servants would join them unless explicitly granted permission to mingle.

In a formal session every court group sticks to their own, forming a team of multiple court groups is a sign of great friendship and trust.
