History
The first order or award created after Ayreton became a barony was The Order of Ríálta Ríáin, named for Ryan of Foxvale (Ryan Sherrod).
Ryan grew up in the Society with his father Ansel of Claybourne/Jimmy Sherrod, attending local events for years and taking part in many Pennsic Wars.
Even as a young child, Ryan was service-oriented, serving drinks and helping his father cook many of Foxvale's feasts. He assisted at countless Foxvale events, as well as serving the neighboring cantons, helping at Tree-Girt-Sea's Twelfth Nights, Grey Gargoyles' Stone Dog Inns, and Vanished Woods' All Souls events. He loved attending all local events, but the gaming and auction at Stone Dog Inn held a special place in his heart.
Ryan loved archery and took to fighting early on. He was one of the first youth fighters involved when youth combat began in the Middle Kingdom. He became a Midrealm authorized fighter soon after his eighteenth birthday, fighting alongside the Barony at Pennsic, facing his foes with laughter, joy, and bravery, next to his family and friends within the Barony.
Ríáins life was cut short on April 14, 2010 in a fatal car accident. The Order of Ríálta Ríáin which translates to Ríáins Star celebrates Ríáins life and his efforts as a young volunteer who selflessly gave of his time and energy.
