Welcome to The Acorn

Hello, my name is Matt Stephenson, but you probably know me as Ser Xipher Oakheart, the acorn knight of Eriador.  I have been fighting since 1999 and helped to found the realms of Nan Belegorn and Tir Asleen along with the Eriador Alliance and Belegarth fighting in Iowa in general.  Over the years I have learned a lot about starting, running, and growing realms.  This blog is my attempt to organize my thoughts about Belegarth in one place and to serve as a resource for others to access in the future.  If you have any questions or would like me to cover a particular topic, please let me know and I will do my best to accommodate!
