Now come on lads, sure I wouldn't have to become a prince regent if everybody realised who they were and that Ireland has a Celtic Gaelic aristocracy already on its shores, now would I? Appointed as a prince regent to knight and raise up such a gaelic nobility for future times, it is my job, a sacred mission received from Dr William Byrd and Sr Marie Finistere of Paris to raise up this stock and place ermine on its shoulders. The resident Normans do not need any knighthoods as they have theirs from their lineage to William the Conqueror, but the Gaels do - May Mary of the Gaels protect you all.  I have been touring the country, raising up men and women of sufficient interest and quality. Godspeed. This process of knighthoods should be complete by 2015. And of course all those brave men and women that struggled for their homeland 1916-2000 officially and unofficially in and out of Port Laoise are also considered as worthy stock ipso facto by dint of the love of patria - the Fatherland awaits you all.
